After many a cinematic effort, we may finally have a truly terrifying Resident Evil flick on our hands.
From Zach Cregger (The dude behind Weapons, Barbarian) we get another (another) reinvention of the Resident Evil franchise – and BOY HOWDY, does the trailer do a great job of setting the tone:
What a time. Not a cell phone in sight. Literally, because the dude needed to let himself into a strangers house to use the landline.
Chock full of disturbing stuff to see, I don’t even know where to begin. A pale fat dude in the sewer? Some kind of many-limbed beast in the farm house? It’s unlike any Resident Evil I have seen, but I want to see so much more of it.
The synopsis from YouTube gives us a glimpse of what to expect:
Resident Evil follows Bryan (Austin Abrams), a medical courier who unwittingly finds himself in an action-packed, non-stop race for survival as one fateful, horrifying night collapses around him in chaos.
So no big Resident Evil favourite characters just yet, but being a teaser trailer there is still time for a longer offering to maybe show us Chris Redfield punching a boulder. With a tease this good, I am thoroughly seated to see what that sicko Zach Cregger has in store for us.
How do you feel about the Resident Evil trailer? Excited to see more plummeting zombies? Let us know in the comments or on social media.
Known throughout the interwebs simply as M0D3Rn, Ash is bad at video games. An old guard gamer who suffers from being generally opinionated, it comes as no surprise that he is both brutally loyal and yet, fiercely whimsical about all things electronic. On occasion will make a youtube video that actually gets views.
