‘Monster Hunter’ Producer Interested in ‘Dino Crisis’, ‘Resident Evil’

Published

When Dino Crisis 2 turned the big 1-5 last September, I asked the Powers That Be to exhume the series from its twelve-year hiatus.

It took a considerable amount of petitioning from the community over a long damn time before Capcom came around on the Resident Evil 2 remake. I suspect any chance we might have at a Dino Crisis revival will be about as challenging, and that’s why it’s nice to see a similar sentiment come from Monster Hunter Online Tao Weishi producer, who specifically mentioned Dino Crisis as a game he’d like to work on in a recent interview.

That could mean just about anything, but the mission right now is to remind Capcom there’s an audience out there for a horror game about carnivorous dinosaurs turning us into people-shaped snack foods, and that’s progress.

It’s also just one of about a half dozen properties Weishi name-dropped, along with Resident Evil, Street Fighter, Devil May Cry, Onimusha and Sengoku Basara.

Come on, Capcom. I believe in you.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
