Critics Consensus
Packing unforgettable scares into a sleek runtime while Austin Abrams' crack comedic timing provides crucial levity, Zach Cregger's Resident Evil is a propulsive tribute to the pleasure and terror of playing a truly spooky video game.

Yes, he has directed a few films now that have been received very positively.

    He's honestly an amazing filmmaker, his pacing is impeccable.

    I haven't seen Resident Evil yet, but Barbarian and Weapons had a perfect balance of escalation and intrigue.

    Nobody is going to guess how either movie will end; and they aren't cop-out twist endings either, they are congruent with the narrative.
