Screening of Zach Cregger's remake of the Resident Evil franchise, a horror thriller set over one night of a zombie outbreak, at ODEON Stoke.
Resident Evil is showing at ODEON Stoke on Friday 6, Tuesday 10, and Thursday 12 November, with sessions at 13:00 and 20:50 each day. It's a new take on the franchise from director Zach Cregger, who also did Weapons and Barbarian, and this time he's stripped the whole thing back to a single, horrific night.
The story follows Bryan, a medical courier who's about as far from a hero as you can get. He's on his way to a remote hospital when his delivery is interrupted by a sudden outbreak, and with no combat skills and little talent for survival, he's forced to fight his way through hordes of mutated creatures just to stay alive. It's a far cry from the high-action heroics the series is known for; the focus here is on an ordinary man out of his depth, trying to make it through the night.
Cregger's approach is built on adrenaline-fuelled pacing and big set pieces, and the cast is led by Austin Abrams as Bryan, with Paul Walter Hauser and Zach Cherry also in the mix. The film first came out on 18 September 2026 and carries a 15 certificate, so it's definitely geared towards an older crowd rather than a family afternoon at the cinema.
