Entertainment TV & Movies The upcoming Resident Evil movie looks legit scary in its first trailer By Lawrence Bonk April 30, 2026 11:28 am EST Sony Pictures There's a trailer for the new Resident Evil movie and it looks surprisingly great, though the somber tone could disappoint people looking for the camp of the Paul W.S. Anderson installments. This looks to be a serious horror film. It's directed by Zach Cregger, fresh off his Oscar-winning Weapons. The teaser shows an unassuming medical courier fighting for his life at a rural farm house, a plot that seems partially inspired by Resident Evil 7: Biohazard. This is a standalone story that's set in the Resident Evil universe but doesn't follow the events of any one particular game.

Excerpt limited to ~120 words for fair-use compliance. The full article is at Engadget.
