'RESIDENT EVIL: DEATH ISLAND' BRINGS FAMILIAR FACES TO A NEW STORY IN THE EXPANDING RE UNIVERSE
We here at Macabre Daily are big fans of the RESIDENT EVIL video games. Hell, some of them ended up on our Top 5 Horror Video Games of all time video. To say the feature films have been a bit of mixed bag is an understatement, but those who have been watching the computer-animated films are likely to tell you they are more true to the franchise than the live-action ones. Well, SONY knows this all too well and is giving us yet another feature-length animated film in the expanding Resident Evil universe!
Releasing on JULY 25, 2023 on 4KUHD, BLU RAY, and DIGITAL is RESIDENT EVIL: DEATH ISLAND. This sees some familiar characters fighting the T-Virus yet again, this time at one of the US’ most famous penitentiaries. Check out the synopsis of the film below:
In San Francisco, Jill Valentine is dealing with a zombie outbreak and a new T-Virus, Leon Kennedy is on the trail of a kidnapped DARPA scientist, and Claire Redfield is investigating a monstrous fish that is killing whales in the bay. Joined by Chris Redfield and Rebecca Chambers, they discover the trail of clues from their separate cases all converging on the same location, Alcatraz Island, where a new evil has taken residence and awaits their arrival.
