Resident Evil Ending Explained
Zach Cregger's Resident Evil has arrived. But does it have any post-credits scenes, and what does that ending mean for the future of the franchise?
The Resident Evil movie, the fourth reboot, does not include post-credits scenes. The story follows Bryan, an inept expectant father and medical courier, on a mission to deliver a crucial package to Raccoon City General Hospital. Unbeknownst to him, Raccoon City is the epicenter of a t-Virus outbreak that transforms people into tentacle-wielding zombie mutants. Bryan receives the cure required for the vaccine from an Umbrella scientist, but the package is lost during his journey.
As Bryan reaches the hospital, he faces numerous challenges, including a rat-king zombie freak, infected rats, and a maternity ward filled with horrors. He finally reaches the silver laboratory door, where he is greeted by Zach Cherry's Umbrella scientist. Bryan, covered in blood and hiding his mutating body under a puffy winter jacket, delivers the cure to save humanity.
Inside the laboratory, Umbrella's scientists work to finalize the t-Virus antidote, but Bryan's condition worsens as he transforms into a grotesque monster with tentacles and bulging eyes. Despite the scientists' efforts, Bryan breaks free and devours them one by one while attempting to inject himself with the antidote. The National Guard arrives, witnessing Bryan's terrifying form, but it is too late as civilization's only hope has been lost.
