Producer Don Carmody compares the Resident Evil movies to Saw


For true fans of the Resident Evil franchise, the fact that movies exist is not only a heart-breaking ordeal, but also enough to put us all into permanent therapy.

This is what the Don Carmody, producer of the newest entry in the franchise entitled 'Afterlife' had to say regarding the amount of money these movies have been making.

"Part two made more than one, three made more than two and we're hoping four will make more than three," he said. "It keeps the franchise strong. What we want to avoid is what's happening with the Saw franchise which is going the other way. We're hoping Paul being back in the driver's seat with 3-D and these big action set pieces will keep it going."


He just compared the Resident Evil movies to the Saw franchise which quite frankly, I would rather sit through all 6 of them multiple times then have to sit through another Resident Evil movie.

Also, does this mean they are going to be making more movies based on Resident Evil in the same way Saw has a million sequels? Remember folks that 'Resident Evil: Afterlife' is supposed to be the beginning of a new trilogy so it's possible.

Paul W.S. Anderson has his eye on new movie projects




Paul W.S. Anderson, the man currently overseeing the fourth title in the 'Resident Evil' film franchise entitled 'Resident Evil: Afterlife' has expressed interest in future projects, both of which happens to be based on video games. Just when we thought 'Prince of Persia' was going to redeem the genre.

The popular entertainment news website ShockTillYouDrop recently had an interview with Resident Evil: Afterlife co-producer Jeremy Bolt who stated that, "Paul W.S. Anderson is still circling video game adaptation Castlevania at Rogue Pictures and that they are waiting on a script."

What is the other popular gaming franchise he wants to bring to the big screen you may be asking yourself? Metal Gear Solid.

"Bolt added that he and Anderson would like to adapt Konami's Metal Gear Solid for the big screen at Columbia Pictures," ShockTillYouDrop reported.

There are so many things wrong with that sentence that we don't know where to begin but don't worry folks, nothing has been confirmed as of yet.
