GHOST OF MARS

because i havent seen RESIDENT EVIL ;D

seriously. i think resident evil will be crap(and i like every other video game movie, yes, i do like street fighter, dont throw that rock at me)

i did like ghost of mars, and i have no hope for resident evil at all. it might be good, and if its better then ghost of mars i'll still say ghost of mars, because like steve, im a difficut person ;D

this is a very dificult question.
i liked resident evil very much.thought anderson did a superb job.
carpenter,in my opinion,is the king of horror.i think ghosts of mars had problems in its storyline,but nothing major.

my answer:

i like ghosts of mars better,but anderson did a better job directing.

Ghosts of Mars 6/10
Resident Evil 6/10

Both films were obviously missing something imo, that's why they're just solid horror/thriller flicks. I guess I would have to say Ghosts of Mars because I think R.E. could have been alot better, basically it had a whole-lot more potential where Ghosts of Mars was just for pure cheesy fun. Carpenter was just trying to entertain the audience, Anderson still has alot to prove in my book. R.E. isn't one of my fav. movies of '02 either, so be it.

Geeezzz,this is gonna be a hard one to pick.

I liked Ghosts of Mars alot,It has tough
female characters in it like RE,and when
there is a fight in both movies,it is backed up by loud Lovible Metal music.

Only thing is ,I happen to think Anthrax is
Light years better than Slipknot.

Ghosts of Mars-8.5/10
Resident Evil-8/10

There I've said it!Oh shit now theres an army of pissed-off Zombies at my door!

Resident Evil was a superior film in almost every way.... in my humble opinion that is.

Ghosts of Mars was a good film but I felt it was lacking in afew areas. The whole film felt rushed and the fight sequences seemed very laxidasical.

Resident Evil on the other hand was a pure thrill ride from beginning to end. It was the perfect mix of horror and action, in my opinion.

Resident Evil - 9/10
Ghosts of Mars - 6/10

Although I haven't seen Ghosts of Mars, Resident Evil's excellent action surprised me so I'm going to vote for that for the time being. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

Ghosts Of Mars - 8.5/10
Resident Evil - 7/10

I dig Ghosts Of Mars more than Resident Evil. I guess I'm just more into Carpenter's work than Anderson's. And bulletproof's right, Anthrax is was much better than Slipknot.

I loved both flicks but I will have to go with Resident Evil because I first heard of them making a RE film 5 years ago in a playstation mag. I waited till now for it to come out. So all my anticipating paid off and I would be letting myself down if I didn't pick this one as the best of the two.

hmmm...I own both-not sure if I could pick between the two
RE was fun to watch although the story skipped things I think
GOM was disturbing since watching people stick things into their skin gives me the heebie jeebies

I say a tie

I was disappointed in both, but they're mildly entertaining. The groundwork was there for both films to be top-notch productions, but they never escalated to their potential. It's a tie!

Ghosts of Mars-3/5
Resident Evil-3/5
