Resident Evil Official Trailer Reaction - Zach Cregger brings the survival horror of Raccoon City back to the big screen with Austin Abrams
#ResidentEvil #ResidentEvil2026 #TrailerReaction #SurvivalHorror #Capcom #RaccoonCity #HorrorMovies #GregAndJohn
After watching the trailer, Greg and John discuss how Resident Evil captures the slow-building tension and limited-resource survival horror of the original Capcom games. They break down Austin Abrams’ journey toward Raccoon City General, the abandoned farmhouse, the ominous phone call, the search for shotgun shells, the typewriter save reference, and the game-inspired use of fixed camera angles and over-the-shoulder shots.
The conversation also explores Zach Cregger’s decision to follow an ordinary medical courier caught in the outbreak rather than directly adapting characters like Leon Kennedy or Claire Redfield. Greg and John react to the disturbing infected creatures, the mysterious body crawling through the doorway, and how the trailer carefully withholds its larger monsters and bioweapons. While the story could work as a standalone zombie movie, both agree that the mounting dread, linear progression, scarce ammunition, and visual references make it feel like stepping into the world of Resident Evil.
