Head on over to Yahoo! Movies and you can take a peak at the trailer for Paul W.S. Anderson’s Death Race (set visit/interviews), which hits theaters August 22 from Universal Pictures. Jason Statham leads the cast of an action-thriller set in the post-industrial wasteland of tomorrow, with the world’s most brutal sporting event as its backdrop. A penitentiary full of felons has inspired the jailers to create a grisly pastime ripe for lucrative kickbacks. Now, adrenalized inmates, a global audience hungry for televised violence and a spectacular arena come together to form the Death Race.

Zach Cregger’s ‘Resident Evil’ Runtime Listed as 1 Hour, 35 Minutes

Published

on

Based on the iconic video game franchise, director Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil opens in theaters and IMAX September 18 from Sony, and the official runtime has been revealed.

According to the film’s listing on the AMC Theatres website, the runtime for Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil is 1 hour, 35 minutes, making it one of the franchise’s shortest movies.

And we are expecting a very intense, fast-paced 95 minutes from the film.

Zach Cregger had explained to IGN, “It feels like one gigantic sequence. Things pop off about five minutes in and it basically stays like that until the end. What I love about the games is that you move from set-piece to set-piece. Every location has a unique challenge. I’m borrowing from the games directly in that rhythm, where you’re just running through a gauntlet.”

Here are the runtimes for all Resident Evil movies to date…

  • Resident Evil (2002) – 100 minutes
  • Resident Evil: Apocalypse – 93 minutes
  • Resident Evil: Extinction – 94 minutes
  • Resident Evil: Afterlife – 97 minutes
  • Resident Evil: Retribution – 96 minutes
  • Resident Evil: The Final Chapter – 107 minutes
  • Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City – 107 minutes
  • Resident Evil (2026) – 95 minutes

The film is being billed as “a thrilling — and terrifying — reinvention of the Resident Evil franchise” from the mind of visionary filmmaker Cregger (Barbarian, Weapons).

Austin Abrams (Weapons) stars as Bryan, a medical courier who unwittingly finds himself in a non-stop race for survival as one fateful, horrifying night collapses around him in chaos.

Zach Cherry (“Severance”), Kali Reis (“True Detective: Night Country”), Paul Walter Hauser (“Black Bird”), and Johnno Wilson (“Twisted Metal”) round out the cast.

Cregger directs from a script he co-wrote with Shay Hatten (John Wick: Chapters 3 & 4).
