Ricardo d @RT43154676 Jun 24 Um documentário interessante, mas tive que assistir em 3 semanas pois a edição e a voz do narrador me davam um delicioso sono.

I found it to be an overly long, boring, slog of a documentary that seemed to have not much at all to do with George A Romero’s unmade Resident Evil film. They padded the documentary with some history of the first two games, which was fine in the context of the narrative, but then spent what seemed to be equal measures talking about the Paul W.S. Anderson films, as they did the unmade Romero film. All told, there was very little new information for a fan of the series, and what was included was just not very compelling. Some looks at potential early monster designs were interesting, and hearing some of the horror industry legends who were initially tied to the film was also interesting in a what-might-have-been sort of way, but the lion’s share of the content was very ‘tell don’t show’. Lots of pre-recorded audio interviews played over slow panning shots of scrips. Pretty disappointing in the end.

It’s able to tell a good story of how Romero’s Resident Evil movie never saw the light of day, but it also celebrates George A. Romero, the grandfather of zombie movies, who left behind a legacy.

See more Austin G @RT86812697 01/08/2025 If you are a fan of Resident Evil, this film is for you. After decades of on-screen adaptations, many fans of the games including myself felt as though the movies were not good representations of what made the games so captivating. This film works as an antidote, documenting what could have been had George A Romero's Resident Evil been fully realized. After many years of researching a topic, there were many details within this documentary that I was not aware of. Must see! See more Read all reviews
