So there isn’t long to hold on to see even more.

The fact that the first trailer for Resident Evil Welcome to Raccoon City includes a number of direct-from-the- games references should not be terribly blindsiding. Especially since director Johannes Roberts beforehand indicated that the reason for the reboot. Which was to bring it more in line with the video games.”I wanted to go back to the horror of it all,” Roberts already said when discussing the fact that the movie was a reboot.”I wanted scares and atmosphere rather than full-on action. I think fans of the game felt the same-they wanted to see the iconic characters and locations and feel that the movie was more in line with the Resident Evil game world so that is really why we chose to go in that direction.”
