Hello everyone I'm still new here so I was very weary of posting this. Not because of a fear of criticism, but because I hate it when people join a forum just to promote themselves... then you never hear from them again. I am a happy member of the UpcomingHorrorMovies.com website for many years and now I wish that I had found ResidentEvilForums.net much sooner. Due to the fact that 95% of the movie has already been filmed and that this Saturday is our last day of production... it's pretty much too late. Luckily a moderator here gave me their blessings and said that I should go ahead and post it. Here it goes...

Resident Evil: Mission To Safe Haven



Plot Summary:

Parallel to the events of Resident Evil Zero & Resident Evil 1.

Unknown to Bravo Team, a strange mutation outbreak occurs in the next town over, miles away from Racoon City. Dr. Norfleet, an Umbrella scientist gone rogue, has been hiding within the town and experimenting with medicines. The towns borders have been sealed to keep the incident isolated and kept secret. After all, only 300 people live there. Their underground safe haven sends out a special tactical unit to search the surrounding area for survivors.

On their way to find Bravo Team, Jill Valentine & Chris Redfield stumble upon several witnesses who were able to escape the small town, but before they could fully understand the information given to them... the survivors are killed... and they will soon understand once Bravo Team is located.

Production:

We I first began this project I had intentions of making a movie entirely based on the RE franchise. Due to budget, things were not going well. For 6 months I was getting nowhere. A friend of mine often reminded me that if I had made a RE movie I would not be able to profit, or tour the film festival market with it due to copyright.

So... I eventually gave up and started writing my own all original zombie movie simply called "Safe Haven". A zombie movie entirely unrelated to RE that could stand on it's own, copyright free with no links to capcom.

Once I that was shot, I started writing "bonus scenes". Scenes that could link to the RE franchise, but also easily be removed in the event that the movie gets picked up for distribution. By doing so, the free online version of the movie would still be considered a RE fan film, and the DVD version would simply be Safe Haven, an Effrem J. Adams Film.

It got a bit tricky. Some characters had to say their lines twice. One for my all original version of the film, and then again (but using capcom references) for the RE version of the film. Making it double the editing and post production work

Our first private local screening of "Safe Haven" will be June 30th. Then the free RE evil fan version of the film will be put online for viewing after that.

I hope everything turns out well. Even if their are some plot points that don't make total sense in the canon of RE, it could still be viewed as a fun movie. Especially if it doesn't crap all over RE like Anderson's films did. Anyway, one question, when would Chris and Jill have had time to run into survivors from this other town? Within minutes of landing in the forest to search for Bravo, they were attacked and inside the mansion.

Well...not really lol. Since what we see in the cutscene at the beginning of RE1 (REmake version) is exactly what is canon in RE. And the cutscene never allows for a time skip where we don't know what they are doing. We are with them the whole time and there was definitely no mention of any other people, and there is no way that they would leave survivors there. And if the survivors get attacked by a BOW and killed (which would explain their absence in the game) then that attack would be what set the STARS into running instead of the attack on Joseph Frost, which would be noncanon. ORRR, if the survivors go off on their own after encountering Chris and Jill, it would be illogical, as they are both law enforcement and would see those survivors as potential suspects in the recent murders and would take them into custody. There just really isn't any way to retrofit something into that time period of the games without destroying the canon. I'm not trying to be an ass, but I'm just letting you know that this stuff is going to be brought up by any RE fan worth his/her salt.

I agree that movies are just going downhill these days and video games are becoming more and more involved and I love that. Well, I can respect your film being somewhat non-canon. I mean, it's very long (for a fan film) and it would be unthinkably difficult to make two versions like you did. Will you also post the non-RE version of the film for us? Also, I just have to say that my philosophy is the opposite of yours. I've always thought that the fans should come first, even before yourself. After all, if I were an artist, I would not be making anything for myself (well maybe a little ). I would be making things so they could be admired. And you really aren't anything without fans. Like Johnny Depp has said, "The fans are my boss."

Oh, just thought I'd mention, I got to play that new MK. A friend of mine has it on Ps3.

I played Scorpion at first, and was pleased that I knew the, "Get over here" move, since it's the same as previous games. It's really fun.

Sub Zero owns too.

Sub Zero owns BIG time.

You're probably talking about Smoke. Noob is completely black. Smoke has grey in him.

^ The red robot is Sektor

When most people talk about Smoke they usually refer to the Silver/Gray robot.

However Noob Saibot (all black ninja) is in my film....
