* CostumeInertia: An egregious example is given through how Jill Valentine is depicted in this movie; Jill is portrayed as if she was taken straight out of VideoGame/ResidentEvil3Remake, which took place in 1998 in-universe, while ''Death Island'' is set in 2015, a good 17 years later. Press release information did try to explain why Jill looks so young: being infected with the T-Virus and being experimented upon by Wesker has halted her aging process, (they don't explain what happened to Jill's albinism, however) and no effort is made to explain why Jill is wearing her ''[=REmake=] 3'' outfit still, especially since the only reason Jill was wearing casual clothing in her stay in Raccoon City back then was due not being in active duty as a RPD S.T.A.R.S. officer. With games such as VideoGame/ResidentEvilRevelations showing what Jill's wear as a B.S.A.A. agent actually looks like, there should be a reference to what Jill should theoretically be wearing in ''Death Island'', so Jill Valentine sticks out like a sore thumb compared to Leon, Chris, Claire and even Rebecca who all have designs from their later years, long after 1998. At the end of the day, the only time Jill wearing her 1998 casual outfit almost makes sense in the movie is when her, Chris and Claire go undercover as tourists to an Alcatraz' tour, but certainly not early on in active B.S.A.A. duty.

During the skirmish, JJ is bitten on the neck by one of the zombies but manages to kill the rest, after Dylan suddenly sits up looking completely calm and radios to HQ saying that they were the only survivors, but that JJ was bitten.
