Oh god, please let this be true. Please somebody don't betray Romero on this. Let him go absolutely friggin nuts, over the top death gore mayhem on this flick. Decapitations, brain splatters, disembowelments, dismemberments, come on let's just see some rauncy NOT FOR ALL AUDIENCES Zombie Death!!!! Sigh.... Sorry folks, I was brought up on The 'living dead' films since I was knee high to the grups (grown ups) and by the age of 3 was applauding the little girl killing her Mom with the little thing that spreads that stuff you put bricks together with. (Hey, it's 6:35am and I haven't slept in 31 hours, cut me some slack) Here's the report...

Hey, it's Crash15 again, this time I've got some info on Resident Evil straight from Electronic Gaming Monthly, well, here it is:

"The video game-to-movie adaptation everyone wants to know more about (apart from Lara Croft's big-screen debut) is Resident Evil: The Movie.

Capcom and Constantine Films, the movies production company, have hired George Romero, director of Night of the Living Dead and The Dark Half among others, to write and direct. Production is at a very early stage, and a location, stars and a time frame for the film's release have not been determined yet.

We recently spoke with Romero (look for the full interview next issue), who told us that Capcom hopes to have the movie ready for the release of the third game in the series, which at this point has not been announced.

As for the movie, Romero says that it will be a true horror film targeted at an older audience, those who are fans of the game. "I'm hoping that it can just be dark and chilling like the game--good zombies, good makeup, good effects. I've had the advantage, doing my zombie films, of not having to have them rated. I think for the U.S. release it's going to take the chance of letting it go unrated," he said. "Our plan is to shoot it balls out, so somewhere in the world there will be a harder version of the thing, and maybe we can put it out on a Director's Cut or release it in certain countries where restrictions aren't as tight."

The plot will be based on the events of the first Resident Evil game.

This is certainly good news for fans, as it looks like this time there will finally be a movie based on a video game that's made for the fans and not for kids.
