Proof ‘Resident Evil’ is Basically ‘Aliens’
As evidence by this video, Couch Tomato presents 24 reasons Aliens and Resident Evil are the same movie. In the end, the narrator’s gun shot sound effects are what won me over.
What’s interesting is that Paul W.S. Anderson would go on to direct Alien vs. Predator and give plenty of homage to James Cameron’s sequel in many of his films.
I’m surprised I never noticed the similarities, especially since Aliens is one of my all-time favorite movies. This begs the question, if Resident Evil basically lifts its structure directly from a classic predecessor, why is it so bad? Maybe it’s not?! I guess it’s time to revisit it after all of these years…
Robert Eggers (The Witch, Nosferatu) is back later this year with new horror movie Werwulf, and the very first teaser image from the hotly anticipated movie has surfaced tonight.
Oddly enough, this first look comes courtesy of the NBC Store, and it gives us a glimpse at a chilly Winter landscape from the film. Is there a werewolf hiding in the photo? Maybe…
Set in 13th century England, Werwulf sees a mysterious creature stalk the land as local folklore becomes a terrifying reality. The film hits theaters on December 25 via Focus Features.
Robert Eggers recently teased, “It’s the darkest thing I’ve ever written. By far.”
Eggers directs from a script he penned with his The Northman co-writer Sjón.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Nosferatu), Lily-Rose Depp (Nosferatu), Willem Dafoe (The Lighthouse), Ralph Ineson (The Witch), and Bodhi Rae Breathnach (Hamnet) star.
Robert Eggers and Sjón produce alongside Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner for Working Title. Maiden Voyage’s Chris Columbus and Eleanor Columbus are executive producing.
