301522, Resident Evil succeeded mainly because of its star and its style

Resident Evil 5/6 might be the only game that even somewhat resembles the chaos that those movies represent compared to the video games' measured, plodding tone (even RE4 is 50 percent quiet moments).
they stumbled into the most successful video game film franchise by leaving almost everything that defines Resident Evil on the drawing board and just made dumb action movies with zombies. it's almost more like a ScyFy channel remake of the Alien series than a Resident Evil series.
