"Resurrection: A Biohazard Story" fanfilm gets its first official trailer with the original RE1 cast

Following on the footsteps for their most recent short film "The Keeper's Diary" based on the original file from RE1, which featured Charlie Kraslavsky, who originally played Chris Redfield in the original RE1 cutscenes, as the Keeper in the film, the people behind the "Residence of Evil" have been hard at work on their upcoming short film, which will feature the original cast from RE1 in live action, with each actor reprising their roles from 30 years ago.

The plot for "Resurrection: A Biohazard Story" takes place in 2021 in a town called Rosa Enferma located in Mexico that has been the victim of a recent outbreak. The film sees all the survivors from the Spencer Mansion incident in 1998 being brought back into action to fight back an old nemesis, one previously thought to be dead... twice.

Resurrection's plot said:

Years after the mansion incident, a biohazard outbreak spreads through Rosa Enferma, a remote town in Mexico. Chris, Barry, Jill, and Rebecca are pulled back into the nightmare as Albert Wesker resurfaces and a new bioterror threat emerges.

Unfortunately, the original actress for Jill, the elusive "Inezh", is not returning to reprise her role and will instead be recast, and while she has indeed been found (and she apparently even worked on a role for 007: Agent Under Fire), most likely she's not interested in being involved with this, but as for the rest of the cast, all of them will be reprising the role as follows:

• Charlie Kraslavsky as Chris Redfield

• Greg Smith as Barry Burton

• Eric Pirius as Albert Wesker

• Linda as Rebecca Chambers

Even voice actors that previously worked on Resident Evil will also be making a return for this fanfilm:

• Pablo Kuntz (original Wesker)

• Joe Whyte (2002 Chris Redfield)

• Ward Sexton (the voice of “Resident Evil”)

The film is currently undergoing post-production, and is set to release on the Residence of Evil YouTube channel on March 22nd, 2026.
