Tyrants - The Tyrant was the final boss of the original Resident Evil, and has played a role as a major boss monster in many subsequent titles.

 Everything about Resident Evil   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
It is also believed that the title Resident Evil was taken from a note found in Sweet Home, which refers to the "house of residing evil." Most of the games in the series are played from a third-person perspective, viewing the characters from a generally overhead camera angle as they move through pre-rendered environments.
Although Resident Evil was one of the first games to use this gameplay style on console systems, the technique was first pioneered on the PC by the Alone in the Dark series which is often cited as the first game in the survival horror genre.
Resident Evil 4, which introduced drastic changes to the storyline and gameplay (including a new camera and aiming system), was originally released as a GameCube exclusive, but has been ported to the PlayStation 2 with added content from the GameCube original.

Resident Evil 2 is a frightening game that keeps players on the edge of their seats.

 GamingWorld X - Resident Evil 4 Preview
In what is perhaps the most surprising move of the Resident Evil 4 project, Mikami and company are retreating from the Umbrella Corp. storyline to concentrate on something fresh, thereby abandoning everything series fans know of the Resident Evilmythos.
If you think these meaty bits are shockers, there’s more beef where they came from, because Resident Evil 4 has got many more surprises up its sleeve; so many in fact, that if it weren’t for Leon Kennedy being the main character, the game would resemble nothing like what we know as Resident Evil.
Though the Resident Evil series has grown stagnant over the last few years, Shinji Mikami is about to make the series scary again.

As many who experience great trauma or stress and can only speak of the horrific event after enough time has passed, this is the first time I can pull myself together enough to write a review of this old Survival/Horror game for a new console.
"Resident Evil" is primarily a puzzle game, as just about every room has a secret which leads to another room with another secret.

Es wäre müßig, "Resident Evil" vor das Antlitz all jener Vorgänger und Vorbilder zu zerren, aus denen der Regisseur für seinen subterranen Untoten-Marathon geschöpft hat.
Da ist kaum ein Klischee, welches uns in "Resident Evil" blutverschmiert und nach Menschenfleisch schnappend über den Weg watschelt, das nicht in vielfacher Weise in diversesten früheren (Mach-)Werken des Genres bemüht worden wäre.
Doch "Resident Evil" wirkt größtenteils wie eine laue Geisterbahnfahrt, bei der sich eine fade Gruselattraktion an die nächste reiht, ohne dass sich daraus auch eine marginale Spannungssteigerung extrahieren ließe.

 Resident Evil (2002)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
This movie successfully recreated the feel of the game, and because it kept exposition to a minimum of what you needed to know for this particular story and didn't borrow from or revise any of the original characters or settings, it supported and strengthened the franchise.
No story is retold here, no words are wasted, the setting, feel and pace is familiar to fans of Resident Evil and yet it's perfectly accessible to those unfamiliar with the broader storyline.
Not giving the fan-boys their favorite characters was a good choice since characters tend to get mangled in adaptation, and yet the fan-boys still complain.

Resident Evil (known as BioHazard in Japan), developed by Capcom, is the name of a successful franchise of horror-adventure video games that is credited with popularizing the "survival horror" game genre, in which the goal is to avoid being killed by monsters, undead and assorted evil creatures bent on attacking you.
Although Alone in the Dark is often cited as the first game in the genre, Resident Evil was the first game series to use the term "survival horror."
The first game (Resident Evil, 1996) takes place in the fictitious Raccoon City, a typical midwestern American urban setting controlled economically by the Umbrella Corporation - a conglomerate that produces a wide array of consumer products.

 Flipside Movie Emporium: Resident Evil Movie Review
Resident Evil is a loud, annoying, and gloriously dumb action-horror movie that might have been a good popcorn flick if it were more fun.
By the time Resident Evil got around to the obligatory scene where one guy is trapped by the living dead and tells his comrades to leave him and save themselves, it became clear that there was nothing in this movie that would surprise me. I was right.
I realize it's unfair to expect Resident Evil to compare with George A. Romero's zombie films and I wasn't asking nearly that much from this film.
