Resident Evil REmake dropped twenty years ago today for GameCube
This highly regarded version updated graphics, new music and areas that were intended for the original 1996 release but were omitted from the final release such as the cemetery. It also introduced the feared Crimson Head zombies.. This game is an example of the rare remake that surpasses the original
this thread made me watch the first movie based on the game. I had never seen it before and I'm not familiar with games at all. I thought the movie was pretty good except for some of the acting (Jovovich & Rodriguez were okay). no idea if it catches the vibe of the game well. Netflix has another Resident Evil movie and I see it has a new 8 episode show out too. I'll give those a go too
the first movie was like a 2 out of 5 stars, the final one was more like half a star out of five. you know a movie sucks when ruby rose, a hugely overrated actress/actor/actit has a supporting part in it
years ago I think I saw one of the movies midway through the franchise and I remember that one being serviceable
one bad thing about the later movies is they have jorah 'supersimp' mormont (iain glen) from GoT as a bad guy. that didn't really click with me. he's an okay actor but not good enough to shake his breakthrough part and be a 100% believable bad guy. at key moments in the final movie I was thinking to myself 'when's he gonna break down and cry?' lol
admittedly he starred in resident evil before GoT got underway
