Resident Evil, or why I don't write for a living

Well, since we'll have some time before the time of the dead those who host, why not take another stab at a film series that has always bothered me.

Video game movies have been around for a while, but while comic book films may have some similarity with the source material, video game films might be lucky if the main characters even have the same name.

Resident Evil at a glance should have been a slam dunk film. Zombies attack, heroes fight, hell, you even had George A. Romero doing the script...so naturally they dumped all that nonsense for Paul W. Anderson's wife showing up everyone and ending with a set up for a sequel. My take would be a be bit different.
