Have we gotten an actual true game to film adaption of Resident Evil? It seems like all the movies are based on the concept more than any actual game storyline.

This doesnt look bad, but it just as well could be any other zombie movie, not necessarily Resident Evil. (although I did like the nod at the typewriter and the shotgun shell box design.)

The first game would be pretty hard to adapt into a film given how much of it is puzzles and knowing which item to carry when. But I guess you could make a story of Jill and Chris finding a mansion that turns out to be a lab. It would take real effort.

I don't understand why they haven't been able to make RE3 into a decent film with a Jill as the heroine. It has a pretty standard zombie premise with Umbrella Corp stuff mixed in.

I love RE1 and I love Jill Valentine. Hollywood does not do either of them justice.

But... didn't the last movie already rebooted the Alice-verse? Or now this is rebooting even the reboot? Man this is confusing.
