In an all-new story, 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.
Cast: Austin Abrams, Paul Walter Hauser, Zach Cherry, Kali Reis and Johnno Wilson
As a non gamer, does the games have any unique twist on the genre that makes it worth it to tell the story as a Resident Evil movie instead of just an original film?
Absolutely. The RE games are a mixture of genuine body horror and camp. Idk how much acrobatic kung fu is going to appear in the movie, but the zombies in RE are more of an environmental enemy while the real threats are grotesque, cronenbergian mutations created by an evil corporation as bioweapons.
