The Hive is a fictional top secret underground laboratory located beneath Raccoon City in the Resident Evil video games, and is a setting for the Resident Evil films as well. In the film Resident Evil, the Hive is a multi-level research facility, owned by Umbrella Corporation, deep under Raccoon City. The theft and deliberate release of one of the facility's products—the T-Virus—starts the chain of events depicted in the film's opening. Although the Hive is sealed off at the end of the film, it is reopened in Resident Evil: Apocalypse by the Umbrella Corporation. The Hive was destroyed in the ending Resident Evil: Apocalypse, but a similar facility appears in Resident Evil: Extinction.

Instead of creating large sets for the Hive and Raccoon City, the film crew filmed on location at Berlin, Germany and Toronto, Canada. The underground labyrinth structure of the Berlin U-Bahn was conducive to the acting and promoted a sense of realism and mood in the production.
