  • Paul W.S. Anderson directed the first Resident Evil film in 2002, but he was far from the first to make the attempt. Several years before, in the late 90s, horror icon George Romero was hard at work on the project. In this two part video series, we'll look at how it all came together, and fell apart.

    When i was a kid i bought the hard to find re2 toys on ebay for my birthday. The seller slipped in the script George A. Romero made. And i was already into his movies so it was a great birthday.

    George A. Romero also wrote a script for a Goosebumps movie.

      Wow cool he had so many scripts written that were never made into film. Resident evil movie,Goosebumps movie,episodes for tales from the Darkside, also another undead sequel called Twilight of the dead.

    we need a movie or series of resident evil filmed in the way Romero would film it. Do it for him.

    Dude if Romero’s movie was made he would have filmed it in Pennsylvania, Pittsburgh of course thus Raccoon city is in southwestern Pennsylvania and the arklays are the Alleghenies. Just a thought. I think it works personally. I think he got the cop drama element the first game had.

    dont get me started on how angry i am they didn't let the FATHER OF ZOMBIES make the resident evil movie. its like when they cancelled silent hills. i went ape shet. ill never get over either of these things. he literally invented the zombies in the RE games but nope, lets get some POS hack do it and ruin all of it instead. i feel like if both projects happened though one of 2 things would happen: they would be the most amazing things ever that people would kill themselves over it or the worst things ever that it would have made the creators kill themselves. which is why they couldn't happen lol.
    romero was a genius too. he churned out the script then he'd tape all the footage then slap it all together in editing. it was fast and haphazard but it worked for him. it was all chaos until he went to edit, then it was a slow methodical process. when he was making dawn of the dead they had from like 10 pm to 4 or 5 am to film so he HAD to do it fast. that was how he did it though and it worked. i mean all of this info is in docu's about him n what not if you want better details. he'd always tell tom savini to think of deaths while doing make up or whatever else lol. i love their friendship so much, just 2 friends making movies together having fun doing it. thats what movie making was back then ya know. people with a passion and not corporations just wanting money. movies that have passion and love behind them are the best movies. with evil dead it was again just a group of friends making a movie like they used to in high school, except now they're older and have SOME money to make a real movie! that will be in theaters! and evil dead is one of the best movies of all time, not just for horror but in general. they came up with hilarious one liners they still use in evil dead movies today. which honestly makes me sad. corporations are using what was once a genuine funny line that just came about, to now make money. it has no soul to it anymore because its not genuine! its genuine in the OG movies because it was! lol.
    thats how i feel about remakes now and reboots. all the things they take from the OG ones mean nothing now because they're just being recycled by something and someone else. again its not genuine which makes me hate it. make up new funny things. oh wait you can't because you're a heartless corporation and not a unique individual with a dream and a passion for their craft, my bad.

      He probably had more respect for the games than Paul W. Anderson does, how Capcom kept hiring him is a mystery.

    4:01 Correction: "It sold equally well in North American and Europe" (not just the UK).
    Or even better: "It sold equally well in NTSC areas and PAL areas."
    You make it sound like only North America and the UK exist on the planet besides Japan. Classic self-centred attitude, overlooking non-English speaking countries.
    And not a single mention of the HUGE influence the French game Alone in the dark had on the creation of Resident Evil, perhaps even bigger than the influence of Sweet Home and openly admitted by Shinji Mikami himself. Among many other things, the switch from FPS to third person perspective comes from Shinji Mikami playing Frédérick Raynal's Alone in the dark. Like he said, "Without Alone in the Dark, Biohazard would have been an FPS shooter game."

    I've read the script. This would not have been a masterpiece.
    Why in the hell did Chris Redfield have a horse and why wasn't he a member of STARS? And why was he Native American? That's only the start of how weird that script was.
    I did kind of like the cyborg hunters.

      I'm guessing the reason you never did a part two is because you actually read the script and realized it was the furthest thing from a masterpiece ever conceived.

    Capcom bending to Constantine films will and getting rid of Romero is the biggest sacrilege in creative history - next to James Cameron and the wachowski’s ripping off a black womans epic story of the machines. Constantine films should not be celebrated, they destroyed Resident Evil.
