Somewhere in the future, if you ever have to fend off a
horde of hungry zombies, you probably don’t want to take security tips from any
movies especially Resident Evil. Like a lot of home security systems in movies,
they give a false sense of what security systems actually do, but that doesn't mean
there aren't some great products out there, however here are a few movie security
systems that are a bit off from reality:
RESIDENT EVIL
In the movie there is a scene where a certain room that will lock down on both ends when an intruder walks into it, a wall of lasers is then activated to cut through anything in its path. A home security system like this doesn't exist and it probably never should! The home security system is also run by an artificial intelligence that later decides to start murdering, in the real world security systems haven’t reached that crazy level quite yet.

THE PURGE
The family in this film live in an impenetrable fortress, at the touch of a button fortified walls and windows will fall into place, protecting them from the dangers outside. The concept that a whole house could lock down in this way is a little unrealistic and highly unlikely.

PANIC ROOMThe panic room found in this movie is actually surprisingly accurate, except they could've portrayed things a bit better. Some panic rooms can protect you from fires and explosions, some also come equipped with fridges for storing food, phones, backup generators and oxygen scrubbers to clean the air, these things definitely would've come in handy in the movie.
THE PACIFIER
If you remember the movie you’ll know Vin Diesel hopping from one panel to another in order to disable the homes security system, unfortunately you won’t have to do a special dance in order to beat your home security system anytime soon, technology isn't quite there yet. Realistically this method definitely wouldn't be the most efficient way to protect your home either.

Though they won’t be very useful to fight off zombies, murderers
or government agencies, home security systems are still a great investment. The
security offered by SIS – Security & Investigation Services will do a great
deal to protect you and your loved ones from more realistic threats, like
robberies and home invasions.
