Resident Evil Afterlife - Goldfinger Opening Analysis

Resident Evil's Afterlife opening is in someways similar to Goldfinger, but at the same time has many fundamental differences. For a start the concept of the whole opening for Resident Evil is quite simple, simplified down it is a Japanese lady who turns bad, kills a man and then camera pans out to show the spread of the virus. The fundamental difference being the advances in editing and camera software, Resident Evil's opening is executed exceedingly well, similarly to Goldfinger; using basic camera shots and editing work but to a much higher quality. It is clear to see the intent of director, to show the emotion upon the faces of the woman and man; which i am sure would have been evident in the Goldfinger opening if not for the 45 year gap in technology.
