Was at a recent test screening > Opening / Setup (Rural Outskirts – “RE4-coded” prologue): Bryan (Austin Abrams), an ordinary, combat-inexperienced medical/organ courier and everyman “gamer avatar,” is on a routine nighttime delivery run. He is transporting a mysterious package/briefcase (implied to contain organs or critical cargo) destined for Raccoon City Hospital. The journey begins on the snowy rural outskirts of the city in a farm-like area. Early signs of trouble appear—an ominous blood trail or isolated disturbance—establishing creeping dread without immediate violence. Bryan is just trying to do his job and contact a loved one.Inciting Incident (The Crash / First Contact with the Outbreak): While driving, Bryan encounters a woman standing in the road (an early infected). He accidentally hits her or stops to help, leading to immediate complications. He may attempt to aid her or transport her toward medical help, but is pulled over by police amid growing chaos. This pulls him directly into the sudden, city-wide t-Virus outbreak. Things “go to hell” rapidly; the package delivery becomes secondary to raw survival as the world collapses around him in one fateful, horrifying night. >Early Survival Phase (Outskirts to City Streets – Resource Scarcity Begins): Bryan abandons his vehicle and proceeds on foot through snowy Raccoon City streets. He starts with almost nothing (a basic pistol) and must scavenge weapons, ammo, and healing items (including classic green herbs). The trailer shows him running for his life, outmatched and isolated, with first-person-shooter-style intensity, zombies, and visceral horror. He dodges initial infected while trying (and mostly failing) to reach his loved one by phone. Basic zombies and early mutations appear; Bryan misses shots and panics, emphasizing his lack of training. The tone shifts from dread to chaotic action as the outbreak fully erupts.
>>220193153>Mid-Act Escalation (Streets Sewers Deeper City – Progressive Intensity and Allies): Bryan pushes deeper into central Raccoon City in a linear “point A to point B” journey (Cregger’s explicit game-inspired structure). Threats escalate: weirder, bioengineered monstrosities (slimy, toothy designs blending practical effects, rod puppets, and CGI). Key setpieces include dark, gross sewer tunnels with a curved layout and major creature surprise reveal. He upgrades weapons (pistol shotgun MP5/submachine gun) while conserving ammo. He encounters and briefly allies with other survivors: Carl (Paul Walter Hauser), Pauline (Kali Reis, ex-military), Dave (Zach Cherry, scientist), and possibly Max (Johnno Wilson). These provide temporary teamwork, exposition, or gruesome sidesteps amid the nonstop “rollercoaster” chaos. Snowy streets feature trailer-style carnage, including zombified corpses raining down like “bloody bombs.” Resource management and environmental navigation (shaped keys, locked doors) mirror classic RE gameplay. >Hospital Approach and Late-Act Descent (Skyscraper Hospital – Peak Horror and Setpieces): Bryan’s destination—the massive, gore-caked Raccoon City Hospital (inspired by real-world tall hospital towers)—looms as the outbreak’s epicenter. He navigates built practical sets: working elevator, skybridge, emergency staircase, and hallways with an excessive number of doors (intentionally evoking game-style dread of “what’s behind the next one?”). The film’s “hellish descent” intensifies with progressively bizarre and dangerous mutated creatures. Bryan’s package may tie into the hospital’s secrets or the outbreak’s origin, forcing him to confront the horrific source of the chaos. Action becomes relentless (“all gas, no brakes,” “horror version of Fury Road”), blending survival horror with high-energy creature carnage.
>>220193176>Climax (Final Stand – Hospital Origin Point): Locked in the skyscraper hospital amid total collapse, Bryan reaches the outbreak’s horrific core. Major practical/CGI monster setpieces culminate the night’s nightmare. He fights through the “world hellbent on annihilating” him using every scavenged resource and improvised tactic. Supporting characters factor into the endgame (alliances fracture or aid survival). The structure remains focused on Bryan’s single-protagonist POV, with no timeline jumps—pure chronological escalation from blood trail to origin.Resolution / Ending (Survival or Pyrrhic Victory): Bryan either barely escapes the one-night ordeal or meets a fate true to the brutal RE spirit. The story honors game lore (t-Virus rules, Umbrella-adjacent elements implied via setting) without retreading canon character arcs. It ends as a standalone “Zach Cregger movie” that still feels like a celebration of the games’ experience: terrifying, fun, and faithful in vibe if not in exact plot beats. No post-credits teases for established characters are indicated in available info.
Script already leaked. Main guy turns into a G-Virus looking monster and it’s never revealed what happened to his girlfriend
This plot is very meh another soulless cashgrab
not going to read that but anyway someone should teach these people that you don't use every effect a program has until there's nothing left of contrast and clarityi'd just hire the guy who directed cinematics for the last resident evil game since it's what it's all about, the shot where leon gives his only firearm to a helpless girl through the steel grate is storytelling that is out of reach of western directors
>>220193153Why did you get ChatGPT to write your post if it was you that watched it and not your phone?
Another chronicle of Sony Pictures looking like absolute clown shoes. Giving a director to much creative freedoms on an established IP/Universe with a rich story and characters is always a bad idea
Massive flop incoming. Welcome to Raccoon City flopped and this will too
How hard is it to do a film with Leon or Chris as the main characters they did it in the animated 3D films
So is Zach Cregger going to be sent to directors jail when this flops
lol what is this plot who asked for this
Please no more Resident Evil films after this one flops
This is worse plot than Welcome To Raccoon City
Can’t get any worse than the previous films
Trevor died for this?
cool
>>220193645It's not even the plot. The script leaked a month ago. It's about an abortion and none of that game shit is in the movie. The guy dies at the end. The entire movie is pointless.
>>220193197>Bryan either barely escapes the one-night ordeal or meets a fate true to the brutal RE spirit.Name one RE game with an ending where everyone fucking dies and nothing fucking mattered.One.
>>220194083no he died for revealing too many truths and also this.
>>220193153so it seems Resident Evil is the one series in which the adaptations just follow some bullshit OC and either doesn't show the actual characters or sidelines them.
>>220196311dead aim 2
>>220193153>including classic green herbsI'm calling bullshit. How would herbs make any sense on film? Also, you didn't provide anything new, you just wrote vaguely around things already revealed in the trailer that just came out.0/10, nice fanfic
>>220196892>dead aim 2They didn't die in that.
What's the point of a retarded larp like this? Everyone already read the leaked screenplay and it lines up 100% with everything shown in the trailer. That's it, that's the movie you're getting.
>>220197469Because they have to, it's how they make their rupees. They will continue to ignore the script and all mentions of it while pretending no one here knows how the movie will be because they have to.
>>220193410OP BTFO
>>220196275Sounds like a chink psyopMore demoralisation slop
>>220193153here's your cast /tv/
>>220198544wait it has two le funny fat guys? you can only ever have one.
>>220198544I could do without the fat racially ambiguous "funny man" actor.
Re1 is so good I haven't watched the trailer yet
>>220198605>>220198608jokes on you guys cause their both playing smart educated scientists
>start with nothing>finding items like keys and weapons that get upgraded>zombies and creaturesIve seen people saying it looks nothing like an RE movie because "theres snow!" and "Wheres Jill?!?". The guy has said it wont feature the characters, good idea because the last movie they made Leon a paki ffs. And snow is going to ruin it? fucking hell. Just sounds like an idiot who wants to explain RE2 and RE3 happen in September. Im tired of talking with retards here.
what are some moments that made you feel BADASS /tv/?
>>220199055He's on his way out isn't he
Enough with the OCs. Give me Leon.
I still don't know why he threw the virus 20 years ago
>>220199266Will a pajeet Leon suffice?
>>220199266>>220199453>demand RE movies>simp director makes several movies as a vehicle to employ his washed up wife giving her a career, while the known characters are pushed aside and the movies barely acknowledge the games after the first 2>have to wait 20 years for another attempt, this time it will focus on the original two games more>they make Leon a paki and Jill a mutt
>>220199582imagine having an entire family and children and everything with a man that you only said yes to be cause be could give you a fucking career
>>220199206what makes you say that anon?
>>220199453/tv/ hates him but he was genuinely the best part of the movie
>>220200287I genuinely like him, but he should have had a different name instead of Leon S. Kennedy.
>>220200268>RCPD>Rac Coon Police Department
Wow what a retarded chat gpt post. The script is out there nigga.
No Leon No Watch
>>220200557>>RCPD>>Rac Coon Police Department>Rock against communism Coon Police Department
>>220193345Can somebody please link the script I couldn't get it before it was taken down
>>220200649Look it up in the archives, you fat fuck.

>>220200710Thank you very much friend
>>220193153>was at a recent test screeningNope, you’re a fat brown faggot who doesn’t even leave his house. Script leaked like a month ago, fucking larping tard.
The script is fake and chatgpt. This will end up being the best Resident Evil move ever. Trust me.
>>220193153The entire script has been leaked for a while now
it looks good to me fuck all you faggots
>>220193153>>220193176>>220193197ChatGTP aah postshow ticket or gtfo
>>220193153>>220193176>>220193197Theyre calling this the most indian post of all time
>>220193153>>220193176>>220193197>Was part of a comedy troupe called The Whitest Kids U' Know>Together with his best friend Trevor Moore, a member of the same troupe, he wrote and directed a sex comedy film called Miss March in 2009 and it flopped badly ($6 million budget, less than $5 million gross)>The comedy troupe disbanded after their TV show ended in 2011>Cregger's career nosedived>He spent the next decade as a failing actor, only getting a handful of roles in short-lived sitcoms and micro budget indie films that went straight to iTunes>By 2020 he was essentially unemployed and reduced to one role in a short film, supported financially by his Jewish wife Sara Paxton>Meanwhile Moore was always spouting conspiracy theories on social media and his comedy TV shows>MKUltra, Project Monarch, Epstein, The Society of Janus, CIA and Bush Senior killing JFK, 9/11 being an inside job by the Bush family and Saudi Arabia to create "a new Pearl Harbor" etc.>Cregger receives a $4.5 million budget for a horror film called Barbarian in April 2021>The financier is Arnon Milchan, an Israeli billionaire who used to be an operative for Israel's secret intelligence organization LEKEM>Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arranged Milchan's permanent residency in the US>Moore dies from blunt force head trauma in August 2021 after falling from his upstairs balcony>Barbarian gets distributed by Disney and grosses a modest $45.4 million>Cregger's script called Weapons ignites a bidding war, resulting in him getting $10 million to write/direct/produce the film>Before Weapons comes out or is even screened anywhere, Cregger gets signed by Sony to write and direct a Resident Evil reboot>His deal is $20 million + 20% first-dollar gross>That puts his salary in the same tier with Christopher Nolan since Dunkirk (after The Dark Knight trilogy, Inception and Interstellar) and Peter Jackson for King Kong (after his LotR trilogy)
>>220193153Looked like the most generic horror slop possible from the preview.
>>220193197>Bryan either barely escapes the one-night ordeal or meets a fate true to the brutal RE spirit.True to the brutal RE spirit? Which games have the protagonist die? I can't think of a single one. Also, the script leaked, so we know he dies at the end.
>>220199453He and Chief Iron were the best part of the movie and he looks more mexican than a pajeet to be honest
>>220202742I suspect that watching a playthrough of RE9 on youtube will be a better experience than watching this upcoming turd of a film.
I'm excited for this ngl
>>220203466Ethan Winters died in 8, but it was a heroic sacrifice to save his daughter and Ethan was pretty much a non-character anyway. As a general rule, if you're a playable good guy and have survived the first RE game you show up in then you're not going to die, period.
the fat guy from villeneuves dunc was in it for some reason. dont remember that from the games
>>220193153>was at a test screening>synopsis is still full of hypotheticals like you just asked a chatbot to write an outline pitchFuck off retard.
>>220203324Because thats what it is. The studio pays for a generic horror script then takes it to a director to “adapt” to an existing brand name for an already installed audience
>>220200268Shit like this makes me think that the vast majority of people simply don't mature past 8
I agree with Zach that Resident evil movies should tell their own stories in the setting. The problem is none of the material presented so far feels like it takes place in the aforementioned setting>Weather is wrong>Most of the footage isn't even in a city>Footage we do have in the city looks uninspired. Its generic american street with a few wrecked cars. This could be Houston TX or Boston MA. Nothing sells the set as being Raccoon City.>Coolest monster teased so far looks like it came from 'The Forest' rather than Resident Evil.Kinda hard to suspend disbelief with problems like these.
>>220204215>Footage we do have in the city looks uninspired. Its generic american street with a few wrecked cars. This could be Houston TX or Boston MA. Nothing sells the set as being Raccoon City.The same can be said for the RC in RE9, shit doesn't feels like RC at all instead of some generic american city. No ccol puzzle and tight alley like in original RE3
>It looks nothing like RE!Except it has all the similarities if you pay attention and are a real fan of the series.You see the guy start with a handgun, then get a shotgun, and then has an automatic weapon.He’s checking drawers for ammo and supplies.Zombies and other mutated creaturesRaccoon CityLooking for keys (and it being on a dead body only for it to be dragged away right when he’s about to reach them)Sewer levelAlso…Resident Evil 7 is a beloved game in the franchise and barely has any mention of Umbrella for most of the game. Same goes for Village. We haven’t seen the movie yet so we don’t know if Umbrella is absent from it or not. Regardless, Umbrella Corporation is not what defines the Resident Evil property.
>>220203116Trevor's death was an accident
>>220193153>>220193176>>220193197are you so fucking lazy and braindead that you needed an LLM to write this shit out for you? reads like you fed it the leaked script and asked it for a summary.
>>220196311>Name one RE game with an ending where everyone fucking dies and nothing fucking mattered.Ethan dies in Village and nothing in the game ended up mattering at all, so that one.
>>220203501RE9 genuinely has one of the worst storylines I've honestly ever seen in a game, in addition to just being a shot for shot ripoff of Final Chapter.
>>220204215>Its generic american street with a few wrecked cars. This could be Houston TX or Boston MA. Nothing sells the set as being Raccoon City.Raccoon City is a generic city.
>>220193567>pressure to add gay shit to it by your finaciers >fans complain and boycottor >fans complain because some tiny detail isn't lore accurate too much hassle
>>220193567And all the animated films suck ass.Additionally, a main character isn't gonna die, and when you main cast is comprised of people who literally cannot die because they still need to show up in the retarded toys, you're gonna be making a shitty horror movie.
Is Zach going to actually finally make a Resident Evil movie and not some ridiculous Paul WS Anderson nonsense?
>>220193153Nigga this sounds like GPT
Zach, when's your birthday?
>it's another "director hijacks an existing franchise with an established audience and uses his own completely irrelevant slop scriptUnreal. Name a more raped franchise
Worthless hollywood jew uses nepotism to shove his stupid idea into a popular IP, more at 11
>>220203116stop digging
>>220193536I at least give WtRC a bit of credit for at least understanding the assignment for the most part. I even thought Irons was kind of funny, and the dude who's in every movie shot in Canada was pretty decent casting as a creepy Birkin. I also liked that scene in the mansion where Chris is fighting the zombies in the dark, and the only source of light is the strobing muzzle flash of his gun. That movie fucked itself with the bizarre casting choices.
>>220205714Umbrella is in the movie, and i agree the concept of the movie is cool and actually faithful to the games. My main issue with what i saw on the trailer was the monster design itself, it looks far more silent hill/generic supernatural than resident evilAnd by resident evil, i mean the real resident evil, not the garbage like 8 and 9
>>220198544>fake IndianSHAN’T
>>220193567Man, I wanted to like those CG movies, but they have basically made the same thing over-and-over again, just changed up who Leon is teamed up with, who they're fighting, and who that person is trying to get revenge against. I want them to do something like the Animatrix with the Resident Evil universe. There's so much you could do with it. Maybe get famous filmmakers who are fans to make their own live-action shorts, and make an anthology of it.
>>220203116The bastard did it.
>>220196884I could see that working in a movie set in the nu-Doom setting. The movie follows the perspective of a regular Marine caught up in the situation while all the "Le Ebin Doomslayer" stuff is off in the periphery, mostly discussed as bullshit and rumor being thrown around in an attempt to boost morale. Then he would show up in the climax as a deus ex machina.
>>220206934If you want a story about Léon Kennedy then play Leon’s game. If you want a story about Claire then play her games.
>>220193153ZACH KILLED TREVOR
>>220208212If you want a netflix slop career then kill your best friend because he's problematic
>>220208212I agree. Fuck the fans make them consume the movie anyway.
>>220205932Was it supposed to be sam instead?
>>220203116>Jewish wife Sara Paxtonyep Zach did it
The mental gymnastics I'm seeing to defend this movie are insane. You got tourists calling other people tourists.
