Resident Evil 1’s Wesker, Chris, and Barry, or moderately the actors who performed them within the horror recreation’s iconic live-action cutscenes, seem like rubbish at Resident Evil as they admit they’ve by no means beforehand performed the 1996 Capcom basic.
We all keep in mind these fantastic, hammy, Resident Evil FMVs — these prosthetic zombie canine, Barry loading his magnum, the superior rock music and flame results. But regardless of originating characters that may finally characteristic in motion pictures, a Netflix TV sequence, Dead by Daylight, and dozens of RE sequels — together with Resident Evil Village — the actors behind the unique STARS group say they’ve by no means truly performed Resident Evil, and it seems that once they strive, they’re fairly dangerous.
Scott McCulloch, who performed Chris, Eric Pirius, who starred as Wesker, and Greg Smith, nonetheless sporting the trademark beard of Barry Burton, not too long ago sat right down to check out Resident Evil 1 for the YouTube channel Residence of Evil. Dressed of their corresponding STARS colors (Pirius is even carrying the Wesker sun shades) the trio move the controller as they attempt to navigate the opening mansion part, opting, in a type of curveball transfer, to play as Jill.
Apparently they’re utilizing a hack that provides them infinite well being, which is simply in addition to Chris — I imply, Scott — will get nearly eaten alive by the very first zombie, whereas Wesker — sorry, Pirius — struggles to even stroll. Greg Smith however appears fairly deadly, comfortably dispatching zombies and canine with the shotgun, thus proving that the previous dependable Barry, who would all the time pop as much as assist Jill out of a scrape, remains to be alive and effectively.
McCulloch not too long ago starred in a Resident Evil fan movie referred to as The Keepers’ Diary, based mostly on the well-known “itchy, tasty” journal discovered on the mansion’s first ground. In different Resident Evil information, Capcom says that the ninth recreation (my, how far we’ve come) won’t characteristic Ethan or Rose Winters, whose tales will likely be concluded within the upcoming DLC featured in Resident Evil Village: Gold Edition.
