Resident Evil

Resident Evil is coming to MK Gallery on Friday 30 October, with a second screening on Saturday 31 October. It's a new take on the franchise, directed by Zach Cregger, who also wrote and directed Weapons and Barbarian.

This isn't a remake of the early films. It's an all-new story that follows Bryan, a medical courier who finds himself in a non-stop race for survival as one horrifying night collapses around him in chaos. The gallery bills it as a thrilling and terrifying reinvention of the series, and it stars Austin Abrams in the lead. It runs for 90 minutes and is in English.

If you're familiar with Cregger's other work, you'll know he tends to lean into tension and sudden shifts, and Resident Evil fits that mould. It's a tight 90 minutes, so it doesn't overstay its welcome, and it keeps the focus on Bryan's night rather than expanding into a wider epic. It's a good one to catch on the big screen, especially with the horror elements that the franchise is built on.

There are two screenings to choose from: Friday 30 October at 7.30pm and Saturday 31 October at 5.10pm, so you can pick the one that suits your weekend. Tickets start from £9, and both run at MK Gallery in Milton Keynes.
