Resident Evil is an MA 15+ survival-horror reboot that follows a medical courier through one terrifying night in Raccoon City during a viral outbreak. The rating cites gore and bloody violence throughout. The film is not yet widely released. Parents should expect intense horror on par with director Zach Cregger's prior MA 15+ work.
