Does the game franchise justice...

Rating: 9/10 (25 March 2002)

An all new story beginning before RE1 and ending around the beginning to middle of RE2. Definitely captures the feel and tension of the game. The eerie (and fitting) horror soundtrack by Marilyn Manson heightens the tension. Lots of good moments that make the viewer jump in their seat. You also get to see A LOT of Milla in this. Lots of tips of the hat to players of the game, you will notice quick shots of similar rooms and cameos of characters from the game. This film, while light on plot, does make use of it's R rating. Definitely the best video game to movie conversion ever and the best horror film in several years. Recommended.
