Resident Evil Q&A: Director Zach Cregger shares inspirations and a new film teaser
Director and writer Zach Cregger discusses what makes a Resident Evil story tick.

PlayStation Blog: What is your earliest memory of Resident Evil as a series?
Zach Cregger: My earliest memory of Resident Evil had to be playing [Resident Evil] 2. I think I played 2 before I played 1, and I don’t think I played anything like it, it’s the first survival horror game that I remember playing. I definitely played it before Silent Hill, and I just loved this new mechanic of resource conservation. You had to be completely aware of how many bullets you had, and how many healing items you had. You’d make these tough decisions about – what am I going to carry with me? What am I going to leave behind? It was such a unique mechanic. And it felt for me, with all the Resident Evil games, or with most of them, some of them get a little too arcade-y for my taste, but I really like the survival horror mechanics of moving slow and with deliberation. That was something that was really important to me to bring into the movie.
‘Resident Evil’ Trailer: Zombie Video Game Movie Gets Horrifying New Take by ‘Weapons’ Director Zach Cregger
Sony has released the trailer for the upcoming horror film “Resident Evil.” Based on Capcom’s hugely popular horror video games, “Resident Evil” is co-written by Shay Hatten and “Weapons” helmer Zach Cregger, who also serves as director.
The film does not feature established characters from the “Resident Evil” universe such as Leon S. Kennedy or Jill Valentine, as Cregger aimed to create a new and original story. The plot will introduce a new protagonist—a courier delivering a package—who finds himself in the middle of a Raccoon City outbreak.The original “Resident Evil” was released as a PlayStation game in 1994, but was later made available on several different consoles. There have been more than a dozen sequels and remakes of the games, including this year’s “Resident Evil Requiem.”

The 'Resident Evil' Reboot May Finally Be The Franchise's First True Horror Attempt
The survival horror experience is being resurrected by a new horror darling.
While adaptation doesn’t necessarily justify or elevate a work of art, there’s perhaps no better testament to the persistence and cultural resonance of the Resident Evil franchise than the fact that Hollywood has already tried and failed to bring it to live-action three separate times. Paul W.S. Anderson, Andrew Dabb, and Johannes Roberts each inhabited the beloved zombie series in their own way, only to be rejected by critics and fans for a wide variety of reasons. Part of it stems from a refusal to provide a straightforward adaptation of the games’ story, which has pros and cons, but part of it is also the fact that none of the three tellings focused on the creeping dread and survivalist desperation that made the first few games so chilling.
