       Hey guys, Chuck here, and this is my review of new movie Resident Evil , based on the game franchise by Capcom. Co-written and directed by Zach Cregger, this movie stars Austin Abrams, Zach Cherry, Kali Reis, Will Merrick, and Paul Walter Hauser.        So, the movie follows Bryan, a medical courier assigned to deliver a vital medical package to the general hospital in Raccoon City, where a deadly mutagenic virus has been unleashed by the Umbrella Corporation. In Bryan's path are deadly monsters that he must get past to make his delivery in tact.         So, obviously, this plot is one made specifically for this movie, as are the characters in the movie. The only elements from the Resident Evil games in this movie are the location, Raccoon City, and the Umbrella Corporation unleashing a deadly mutagenic virus. And, you know what? The movie still works even without such characters as Albert Wesker, or Leon Kennedy, o...
