No. In another timeline people are saying "Wow, Zach Cregger REALLY Ripped off Evil Dead 2 and John Carpenter's 'The Thing', and it doesn't do either very well."
In another timeline where this movie isn’t called Resident Evil, and the discourse is identical except flipped. Instead of “this shouldn’t be called Resident Evil” it’s “wow they just made a Resident Evil clone and hoped nobody would notice” Same movie. Same people. Opposite sentence. This is the internet now days 🤓
