Chapter 592: "Resident Evil" Released
On the day of the release of "Resident Evil".
In addition to "Resident Evil", there are two other popular movies.
So for many people who are not going straight for a certain movie, there are still many choices.
And for parents who bring their children to the movies, "Resident Evil" is obviously not a suitable choice.
After all, the 17+ rating has clearly told all parents that it is not suitable to bring their children to watch it.
And it happened to be the summer vacation, and there were many parents who brought their children to watch movies.
So on the opening night, the audience who walked into the "Resident Evil" theater was indeed much less than the other two popular movies.
It was mainly players with clear goals.
Of course, although there were few, there were still some.
For example... Qi Xingze and Zhong Yin.
The two were roommates in the same dormitory. It happened to be summer vacation, and they were both single dogs. So they made an
appointment to go out to watch a movie together.
Then the two finally chose the movie "Resident Evil".
Their purpose was not clear.
Although they all knew about the company Linmu Studio and also played Linmu Studio's games.
But they rarely visited the player community.
They did not know from the player community that Linmu Studio was going to make a movie.
Instead, he saw the trailer of "Resident Evil" on WeChat and was deeply impressed.
Then, they made an appointment to go out to watch a movie, and happened to see the promotional picture of "Resident Evil".
He slapped his forehead.
Only then did he decide to watch this movie.
This is fundamentally different from the players who came directly.
So.
When the two walked into the screening room, they were surprised to see that the entire screening room was full of grown men, and before the movie was shown, they were still enthusiastically discussing the "Breakout" biochemical mode.
What does this movie have to do with the game "Breakout"?
Until.
Qi Xingze searched on his mobile phone and found out that the movie "Resident Evil" was actually made by Linmu Studio itself...
Even the director was a staff member of Linmu Studio.
"Can a game company make a movie?"
Although Zhong Yin also plays games.
But obviously, he doesn't pay much attention to the discussion in the game community.
"It should be OK. They are quite good."
Qi Xingze hesitated for a moment, shook the Future S1 in his hand, and replied: "Isn't the phone also made by them? It should be OK."
Zhong Yin looked around at the group of players and continued to ask: "But is it really good? I never read the plot when I play "Breakout". Is this not a fan movie?"
"Uh... I don't know." Qi Xingze didn't know how to reply to his roommate.
"If it is a fan movie, we can't understand it, then it's a big loss! It's better to ask the girls to come out and play."
Zhong Yin looked a little regretful.
"Since we are here."
Qi Xingze didn't know what to say, so he could only use the universal rhetoric.
As soon as he said this.
Zhong Yin immediately shut up.
Indeed.
Since we are here...
However.
He still added: "If we don't understand it, let's leave."
"Okay." Qi Xingze didn't object.
And while they were talking.
On the big screen.
The advertisement was over.
The lights dimmed.
Then the iconic LOGO appeared.
The movie... officially began!
At the beginning of the movie, it did not officially enter the story.
Instead, it first gave a schematic diagram of deoxyribonucleic acid... that is, DNA.
During this period, the logo of Umbrella Corporation, also known as Umbrella Corporation, also appeared. Then, one document after another was disclosed.
[ Umbrella Corporation, a world business giant, covers most high-tech industries such as drugs, medical hardware, and defense industry products. It is also secretly involved in secret industries such as high-tech military technology, life engineering, and biological weapons] ... [The Progenitor virus was originally used to prolong life and strengthen the body. ] [When acting on amphibians, mammals, and insects, they will become larger and eat more to a certain extent. ] [But the virus is too fragile and unstable] Lines of files were specially marked out. But no one explained it. It was like telling all the audience an objective fact in a calm manner. [In order to improve the weakness of the virus that was too fragile and unstable, Marcus, one of the main founders of Umbrella Corporation in the early stage, conducted a series of studies and believed that leeches were very good receptors. After all, leeches are one of the oldest primitive species on earth and have strong adaptability to the environment. He injected the virus into leeches...] The last file was disclosed. Then all the content behind was covered with a black marker. The audience only knows two things from the opening: Umbrella Corporation and the Progenitor virus.
But that was enough.
Soon.
With a reasonable transition.
The sound of a car whistle broke the silence.
The file gradually disappeared.
[July 23, 1998, Raccoon City Forest]
With a line of subtitles.
A speeding train appeared on the screen, breaking the tranquility of the Arklay Mountains.
In the carriage, the warmth of the dinner had not yet dissipated.
Passengers and companions were toasting and chatting happily.
The camera circled around the carriage and then focused on a man in a suit and glasses sitting by the window.
He was holding a document with a serious expression, and it was unknown what he was looking at.
The train was still speeding forward.
Then.
Snap -
the sound of a mollusk falling suddenly sounded.
The man in a suit and glasses sitting by the window seemed to hear something, turned his head in confusion, looked at the window, and looked around.
Music started.
It broke the quiet atmosphere.
The creepy music scared all the audience.
Then.
Outside the window.
The man in a suit and glasses who was looking carefully was suddenly startled.
A creature resembling a leech suddenly stuck to the glass.
It faced the man and opened its mouth full of stacked sharp teeth...
Then the second, third, fourth...
Densely packed leeches, stacked on the glass.
Soft body, mucus, mouthparts...
The man in a suit and glasses screamed in fear and rolled away from the edge of the window.
This scene was basically the same as the promotional video.
But it did not play the climax scene directly to highlight the thriller as advertised. Instead ,
it slowly advanced.
Then, at a certain moment.
An accident happened!
The next second!
Countless leeches began to fall.
Landing on the bodies and faces of all the passengers.
At the same time, they opened their mouthparts and began to gnaw on their skin and flesh.
Accompanied by screams, chaos, and disorder.
The camera switched.
On the track.
The train still roared forward.
But all the players who were watching couldn't help but get goose bumps...
Although the picture had disappeared.
But just looking at the train that was gradually moving away and thinking about the picture just now.
The audience felt uncomfortable.
Qi Xingze and Zhong Yin, who were sitting in the back row, couldn't help but shudder. It was
really disgusting.
The sense of horror was created so well.
In addition,
the beginning of the movie didn't give them any fan movie feeling.
They could also understand the plot.
Obviously, this should be some kind of ancestor virus,
and on the screen,
the plot continued.
[Two hours later, above the forest of Raccoon City]
Along with the new subtitles,
the STARS from the Raccoon City Police Department entered the area by helicopter.
These police officers were quite relaxed.
They were joking and talking all the way.
The atmosphere was full of relaxation. They
even talked about the situation of their other brother team, Team A.
This also tells players that this time, there is not only this team at the scene, but also another Team A.
Many ordinary audiences may have heard of this.
But in fact, this is also a foreshadowing.
Follow-up.
As long as players buy the game, they will know how outrageous Team A of STARS is. There are many
talents there .
However, in the movie,
Team A did not have the opportunity to appear.
The main focus is still Team B.
In the movie, the last shot on the helicopter was of a cute girl with short hair.
She was silent.
Through the conversation with her teammates, the audience also learned that she was a new member of Team B, a medical soldier of the police force, named Rebecca Chambers.
And in the midst of laughter and joy.
The engine of the helicopter that Team B was riding in burst into flames.
Accompanied by the sound of panic, the helicopter made an emergency landing.
Fortunately.
No casualties were caused.
The special tactics and rescue team was quite professional.
After the initial complaints, they began to search nearby.
And not far away.
They found a vehicle that the troops were using to transport prisoners.
But all the soldiers were dead.
However,
there was only one person missing, and that was the prisoner on death row, Billy Cohen.
A demon who was said to have killed dozens of civilians.
This time, Team B of STARS was originally here to investigate the frequent mysterious deaths around Raccoon City.
Now encountering such a situation,
the captain of Team B certainly attaches great importance to it.
Randomly, he ordered everyone to act separately, search the nearby area, and find the prisoner on death row.
While the heroine acting alone was searching separately,
she was lucky enough to find the Zodiac train that had just had an accident...
When the train at the beginning of the movie was looming in the moonlight.
Rebecca walked slowly.
The atmosphere was really set off.
It even made the audience feel that... the story was about to begin.
And Rebecca, alone, walked into the train.
Inside the train.
The lights were still on.
There was nothing unusual in the first car.
It was so quiet that it was outrageous.
Only Rebecca's footsteps echoed.
Rebecca explored carefully.
During this time, she didn't say a word. There was
only the sound of opening doors and footsteps.
The atmosphere of terror was amplified.
Soon,
even the cinema became much quieter.
I have to say that
Zhong Xiu is indeed very talented in creating atmosphere.
In the second carriage,
Rebecca finally saw someone.
Professionally trained, Rebecca shouted a warning while moving forward cautiously, asking the passenger with his back to her to identify himself.
The camera also began to follow Rebecca's sight and began to move forward slowly.
Finally, Rebecca and the audience saw the passenger's profile.
It was a bloody profile after being bitten by leeches.
This was obviously not a living person...
Rebecca also understood this. She looked at the corpse, and then noticed that he had a tape recorder in his hand, so she slowly bent down and reached out to take it.
But as soon as she picked up the tape recorder and raised her head,
the passenger who looked dead suddenly moved.
He slowly turned his head, all white pupils, looked at Rebecca, and slowly opened his mouth...
The originally quiet atmosphere.
The creepy music suddenly sounded!
In fact, zombies are not a rare thing in this world.
After the launch of the biochemical mode of "Breakout", zombies can be said to be everywhere.
But this kind of face-to-face confrontation still creates a strong atmosphere.
This directly made many viewers in the theater exclaim.
When Rebecca drew her gun, cursed what the hell it was, and slowly retreated.
But she found that other dead passengers also stood up and surrounded her...
This was the first explosion point of the movie.
The excellent atmosphere creation reached its peak at this moment.
Then Rebecca's cry for help and the sound of gunfire were a certain degree of release.
At this moment, the audience in the theater were immersed in the movie.
They all stared at the big screen...
on the screen.
Although Rebecca was a little flustered.
But she still pushed away the zombies that pounced on her and shot them in the head one by one.
But Rebecca, who survived the disaster, just breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to leave this ghost place. When she passed the aisle, she was attracted by the key next to the body of a flight attendant.
And she just squatted down to pick up the key.
A back appeared behind her.
It was the death row prisoner mentioned at the beginning-Billy Cohen.
The following is the conventional plot.
The death row prisoner and Rebecca cooperate to pass the level.
Of course, they disliked each other at the beginning.
Rebecca wanted to catch up with Billy Cohen and send him back, but her dying teammate suddenly broke into the train and told her that the forest was now full of zombies and monsters...
While Rebecca was exploring the carriage, she also found more anomalies.
She finally realized that the place she was in was extremely unusual and dangerous.
Billy Cohen also realized it.
The two had no choice but to cooperate.
A fledgling medic and a death row prisoner who was said to have tortured civilians.
They had to cooperate.
This relationship, although old-fashioned.
But it was indeed... very useful.
The audience watched it with relish.
Even without watching the back, the audience guessed that Billy Cohen must have been wronged.
But this thing, old-fashioned does not mean it is not good-looking.
And the "Resident Evil" movie is not only these old-fashioned things.
In terms of disgusting people and atmosphere creation.
One wave after another.
For example, the scene before Rebecca and Billy Cohen reached a cooperation agreement.
In the dim carriage,
an old man sat at a round table, bowing his head and not saying a word.
Rebecca was about to go up and ask.
Suddenly,
the old man turned his head and his head fell off.
It fell off suddenly.
Without any signs, the head and the old man's body suddenly turned into countless leeches, wriggling and condensing into a human form.
Then they pounced on Rebecca like a fairy mountain flower and drowned her...
It really makes people's scalp tingle.
Zhong Xiu really didn't waste the ability he had trained for a long time in making game CG. He
really applied all his life's learning to the movie...
And it was after this battle that Billy Cohen saved Rebecca, which made Rebecca really agree to the other party's cooperation proposal.
But the two had just reached an agreement.
Suddenly,
the train started again.
Is there someone else on the train?
With such doubts, the two people who cooperated began to move forward.
Then,
the two encountered the biggest crisis on the train.
A huge mutant like a scorpion.
And when the two struggled to solve this mutant.
Two mysterious figures appeared in the dark command room.
One is wearing a police uniform and sunglasses, named Albert Wesker.
The other is wearing a white coat and looks like a researcher, named William Platinum.
Both of them are famous characters in the later games.
One is an undercover agent of the Umbrella Corporation in the police force, and the other is the head of the Umbrella Corporation.
From the conversation and memories of the two, we can know
that the train earlier was originally sent by the Umbrella Corporation to its own research institute.
But it was attacked on the way.
Albert Wesker sent a team to investigate. After discovering that the passengers on the train were infected with the biochemical virus, he ordered his men to start the train and let it crash...
This is why.
The train started suddenly.
However.
Albert Wesker's men died in the attack of the leech group before the train crashed.
The protagonist Rebecca also rushed to the front of the train at this time.
And their primary goal, of course, is to stop the train.
Otherwise, the car will be destroyed and people will die.
Here.
The movie borrowed the level design from the game. Rebecca wants to stop the train and must find the brake mechanism.
During this time, they also had to face the attacks of zombies.
The tension was full. It looked
like the end was coming soon. But fortunately , at the critical moment, Rebecca finally completed her work. In the end, at the last moment when the train was destroyed and everyone was killed , it stopped with a huge roar. The two protagonists were safe and sound. However, the story is far from over... The train stopped. The two came to a strange place. They passed through the smelly sewers and walked into the place where the real nightmare happened. The beginning of the entire biochemical crisis. The Umbrella Company's... cadre training center! ... In the cinema, Qi Xingze and Zhong Yin finally... didn't leave. However, when they saw the train stop, they really thought that the movie was over. But when they looked at the time, they found that only forty minutes of the movie had passed. I can only say that they were too fascinated. And the next plot. This officially revealed the origin of leeches and viruses. This ancient Umbrella Company cadre training center is a training facility for the Umbrella Company. It was originally used to train cadres for the Umbrella Company. There, the two protagonists found relevant information about James Marcus. He was the head of the training facility, the person who discovered the Progenitor virus, and one of the founders of the Umbrella Corporation. Marcus devoted himself to the research of the Progenitor virus, and combined the virus with leech DNA. He eventually developed the 'T virus' for the purpose of creating biological weapons, and established a very high prestige in the Umbrella Corporation. However, as the research progressed, Marcus' personality gradually became distorted. He was no longer satisfied with just conducting experiments on animals, but set his sights on humans... and even used the company's researcher cadres for experiments. Another senior executive of the Umbrella Corporation was afraid that if Marcus continued his research, it would threaten his position, so he sent William and Wesker to assassinate Marcus. However, Marcus, who was shot and thrown into the sewer, did not die due to the effect of the leech queen virus, but was resurrected in ten years without anyone knowing, and became a life form combined with leeches. And the train had an accident.
It was Marcus who used the virus in his body and the ability to summon leeches to retaliate against the Umbrella Corporation.
This is the cause of all the tragedies.
This is the secret past of the Umbrella Corporation that almost no one knows about.
At the same time,
this is also the origin of all biochemical viruses.
Later, more and more perverted viruses will appear in the biochemical crisis.
But all this is related to Marcus's "T virus".
Marcus came back to life, and now he wants to take over the world with his own power.
But two young people, Rebecca and Billy, made his ambition come to nothing.
The two broke into the cadre training institute.
After investigating and understanding the truth, they defeated the leech queen incarnated by Marcus after pouring out ammunition.
Then,
facing the leech queen who had been alienated again,
one was responsible for attracting attention.
The other was responsible for opening the skylight to let the sun shine on the leeches that were born in dark and humid places and were afraid of ultraviolet rays.
Completely eliminate each other.
They succeeded.
Send the leech queen in the movie "Resident Evil" to see God.
And finally.
Accompanied by the self-destruction of the training facility.
The Umbrella Company's cadre training center exploded into flames and shot up into the sky.
Everything was over.
Rebecca and Billy faced the sun and escaped death.
Finally,
the two said goodbye.
Rebecca tore off the dog tag on Billy's neck and put it on her own neck, symbolizing that she recognized this man.
Then,
they saluted each other.
The movie also
came to an end here.
Rebecca turned her back to the sun and left first.
Billy watched the other person leave, then turned and walked in another direction. In
the theater, although there were still audiences who hadn't reacted, most people were ready to leave.
But at this moment,
the camera pulled forward
and slowly gave the bottom of the cliff where the two protagonists had just stood.
Below the cliff.
In the foggy forest.
A gorgeous mansion stood quietly...
Then.
The movie came to an abrupt end.
...
Qi Xingze and Zhong Yin both half stood up.
But suddenly saw a gorgeous mansion appear on the screen.
But before they could sit down again.
The movie went black.
The two could only get up again and turn around to leave the theater.
Walking and chatting.
"This... the story is not over yet?" Zhong Yin asked curiously.
"It shouldn't be."
Qi Xingze thought for a while and replied: "I checked before the movie started. This is a multimedia project of Linmu Studio. There should be a game."
"Game?"
Zhong Yin was stunned when he heard it, and then showed an eager expression: "Then I feel like I can play it. It feels very interesting..."
At first.
He thought it was a fan movie.
But after watching it in its entirety.
He found out that he was wrong.
This is a commercial movie! And it is a commercial movie with a great viewing experience!
The story line is clear and concise.
It tells the origin of the virus.
There are big scenes and horror.
The description of the emotional line is also very interesting.
CG movies will not make people uncomfortable. Compared with real people, it makes the viewing experience even better!
More importantly.
The horror of the movie is really great!
Qi Xingze nodded in agreement when he heard it: "Indeed."
Indeed.
If the game has the atmosphere of a movie...
Qi Xingze thought of this.
He was a little impulsive and wanted to play the game immediately.
Because it really feels very interesting.
...
The second day after "Resident Evil" was released,
many people who paid attention to it immediately checked the changes in the movie's screening data.
However,
the data did not increase, but decreased a bit.
It was only about 9%.
This... the WeChat bonus is not obvious.
Many people who paid attention to it could not help but murmur.
But on the same day...
a well-known film critic issued a film review.
It was not a review of the other two popular movies, but a review of "Resident Evil".
The title is very interesting - "The most unexpected surprise of the year, an extremely excellent horror thriller - Resident Evil!"
