Zach Cregger's new take on 'Resident Evil' has opened to a record-setting box office haul for the long-running franchise, buoyed by positive critical reception and strong audience word of mouth. Industry watchers expect the film to maintain steady earnings over the coming weeks rather than fade quickly after opening weekend.
A new Resident Evil movie directed by Zach Cregger reportedly breaks from the franchise's Milla Jovovich-era action focus by recreating the dread and resource-scarcity feel of the original survival horror games. The story follows Bryan, a medical courier drawn into Raccoon City while grappling with impending fatherhood, and uses over-the-shoulder camera work reminiscent of classic Resident Evil gameplay. Cregger, known for Barbarian and Weapons, brings both horror filmmaking chops and genuine fandom to the adaptation.
