Zach Cregger's horror reinvention of the Resident Evil franchise, in which a medical courier fights for survival during an outbreak.
Resident Evil is showing at Vue Cinema in Oxford, and it's in its final run — it opened on 18 September and stays on the screens until 29 October, so you've still got a few weeks to catch it. It's a reinvention of the franchise, not a continuation of the stories you might remember, and it's directed by Zach Cregger, who also did Weapons and Barbarian.
This one starts with Bryan, a medical courier, who's just out on a delivery when a sudden outbreak hits. From there it turns into a non-stop race for survival as one horrifying night collapses around him in chaos. It's a tight 1 hour 34 minutes, so it doesn't overstay its welcome. The cast includes Austin Abrams, Zach Cherry, Kali Reis and Paul Walter Hauser.

Vue Oxford is inside the Ozone Leisure Park on Grenoble Road, with nine screens and 4K picture quality and Dolby Surround Sound. It's a big site that takes in more than 1,380 people across those screens, and it does more than just films — it also runs big-screen broadcasts of concerts, sport, dance, opera and theatre. Tickets are between £6.49 and £9.49, and the film is for ages 15 and over, so you'll need a valid photographic ID with you.
