Watch People React to ‘Resident Evil 7’
“The scariest Resident Evil I ever played.”
That’s one of several glowing endorsements Capcom curated from a number of E3 attendees after they had spent some time with the game’s VR demo. You’ll hear it in the video below, along with a brief chat with director Paul W.S. Anderson, who has shaped the direction the film adaptations have taken, for better or worse, since the very beginning. Anderson says he might do a short VR film next year, and after playing the Resident Evil 7 demo — available to download now, for free, on PlayStation 4 — it’s easy to see why.
The Resident Evil 7 demo is an interesting beast. It’s scary, scarier perhaps in its 20 minute-long running-time than the series has been for quite some time. It’s also not immediately identifiable as a Resident Evil game, but that’s probably for the best. You could argue Resident Evil 6 wasn’t either. This franchise is no stranger to the comprehensive reboot. Resident Evil has been remade, rebooted, remastered and reimagined so many times that I have to remind myself not to capitalize the ‘RE’ whenever I mention its latest incarnation.
I’m interested in seeing what you have to say about the demo, if you’ve had the chance to play it. And if you haven’t, it’ll come to other platforms soon.
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.
