Supongo que la mayoría ya le habrá echado un vistazo en la gran pantalla o estará por hacerlo, pero quería abrir debate sobre la nueva película de Resident Evil que se estrenó este pasado septiembre. Venía con las expectativas moderadas después de tantos tropiezos históricos del cine de terror basadas en videojuegos, pero salí gratamente sorprendido.
Para mí, es una auténtica gozada y, sin duda, la entrega cinematográfica que mejor ha entendido la esencia del survival horror de Capcom.
Lo que más aplaudo de esta versión es cómo maneja el ritmo. En lugar de tirar por la acción pochocla y los superhéroes a lo Milla Jovovich, aquí se siente el peso del peligro constante. El viaje de Bryan como un mensajero médico que se adentra sin comerlo ni beberlo en el epicentro del desastre te atrapa desde el minuto uno. Visualmente, las mutaciones corporales y las fusiones de enemigos en pantalla dan verdadero pánico; hay una secuencia en el hospital y los pasillos subterráneos que parece sacada directamente de una partida jugada en máxima tensión.
Estructura de "fases" y progresión
Aunque la historia sigue un planteamiento original para un nuevo personaje, la progresión de los escenarios (empezando por una carretera aislada en los bosques de los Arklay, pasando por una granja con un perro mutado, hasta adentrarse en las entrañas de instalaciones corporativas y laboratorios subterráneos) imparte la misma estructura de progresión clásica de un Resident Evil 2, 3 y 4.
El lore de Umbrella y las mutaciones
La forma en que las criaturas reaccionan a los disparos y cómo evolucionan (combinando restos y generando bichejos grotescos como las ratas mutadas o el terrorífico amalgam) rinde un tributo gigante a las horribles dinámicas biológicas de los laboratorios de la compañía farmacéutica.
Sensación de recursos limitados
Aunque no es un calco literal del inventario, se nota que el director quiso transmitir esa claustrofobia de ir contando las balas y buscando desesperadamente por dónde escapar cuando las cosas se tuercen.
¿Ustedes ya la vieron en el cine? ¿Qué les pareció este enfoque de terror puro comparado con las adaptaciones pasadas?
@ThePunisher5007 - Respuesta corta: he visto el tráiler nada más.
Respuesta larga:
En una noche de verano en las vacaciones de 2003, una chica de 13 años decide quedarse despierta para ver una peli en la tele (canales abiertos). Era el estreno de Resident Evil en la TV. Sola en su habitación iluminada apenas por el brillo del aparato de 21 pulgadas y una diminuta lamparita roja, la pobre no sabía que su vida estaba a punto de cambiar para siempre.
La película estaba entretenida y todo iba bien, hasta que aparece el primer zombie. Ahí es cuando todo se va al garete y la chica se asusta a tal punto que se ve obligada a taparse hasta las mejillas. Porque todo el mundo sabe la regla de oro de los monstruos (Monstruos 101), no te pueden atrapar si estás tapado/a hasta el cuello y sin ninguna parte de tu cuerpo saliéndose de los márgenes de la cama.
Los efectos especiales, el maquillaje, los escenarios y las secuencias de acción son geniales, pero ella no nota nada de eso, todo queda relegado a un segundo plano. El terror se apodera de todo su ser. Un pequeño cuerpo, para un enorme pavor.
El film termina, su temor no. Su infierno personal acababa de comenzar. Cada vez que cerraba los ojos, imágenes sangrientas de los no-muertos acaparaban en su mente. Casi no pudo dormir. La primera noche fue la peor, pero su martirio siguió durante más de 1 semana.
En algún momento de estos días de tortura, se dio cuenta de que tenía fobia a los zombies. Un pánico tan grande que le tormenta hasta la actualidad y le impide ver, jugar o escuchar nada que tenga que ver con el tema. Lo intentó con Mi novio es un zombie, Yo soy leyenda, The Last of Us, hasta con Minecraft. Todo en vano, con que alguien finja ser uno a su lado ya se pone a llorar.
Conclusión: Algunas personas tienen fobia a los payasos, a las arañas, a las serpientes... y otras, como yo, a los zombies.
FIN
P.D.: Algún día os cuento mi calvario al trabajar en el juego Dead Space Remake. Sí, esa chica soy yo.
La vi en el cine hace unas tres semanas y también me encantó. Tenía buenas expectativas porque estaba dirigida por Zach Cregger, que ya venía de cosechar varios éxitos, y diría que las ha cumplido con creces.
Creo que una de las claves es que Zach es muy fan de la saga Resident Evil. Cuando haces algo nuevo respetando el material original e incorporando guiños a los videojuegos, el resultado pues sale bien.
El "bloqueo" de caminos con vallas y candados que te obliga a ir por donde la historia quiere, sumado a la progresión de armas de menos a más que va teniendo el protagonista (pistola, escopeta y rifle) es muy diseño de niveles en RE.
La escena que más disfruté fue la del tunel cuando tiene que pasar la caravana cruzada y el encuentro con la niña, casi me muero de risa y de miedo a la vez.
La vere cuando este de gratis o incluida en algun servicio de suscripcion que tenga, sin prisa alguna de verla pues no me perdere nada en si ni sera relacionado con otros proximos juegos o pelis que salgan seguramente.
El conocimiento es poder, úsalo bien, pues su mal uso conlleva a la destrucción.

@j7schultz La regla de la manta hasta las orejas nos ha salvado la vida a todos alguna vez 😅 Totalmente comprensible que no te acerques a esta peli. ¡Respeto máximo por sobrevivir a ese trauma! Suena muy interesante esa promesa del hilo sobre la historia de trabajar en el juego Dead Space Remake
@Inyeon Ese detalle de la progresión de armas y los caminos bloqueados fue un guiño brillante al juego 😎 A mí también me sorprendió lo bien que adaptaron esa vibra de survival horror sin que se sintiera forzada, realmente me parece que han hecho un muy buen trabajo!
