To anyone who wants to read more in depth version of the synopsis of McElroy's first draft, one which is available to read at the George Romero Archive at the University of Pittsburgh, check this out;
Director's cut of the documentary, with even more stuff? Definitely looking forward to it! Shame that you had to cut those parts, but i do like your idea about analysis of both scripts. I just wish there was some way to get you guys an access to both of McElroy's scripts, and without any...
Congratulations Bran! You did a great job with it, and finally seeing it was amazing. Personally, it was also a great way to start first couple weeks of this new year, and really made my day, after going through some crap lately (nothing serious though)! Finding out more about Romero's version...
I'm hoping McElroy also mentioned anything about his Doom script from 1997. That's another video game film adaptation which went through surprisingly long and interesting development history. I managed to find out how there were at least four rejected scripts written for that one; One from still...
Apparently, the upcoming book about unmade horror films, Phantom Limbs by Jason Jenkins, will include the chapter about Alan B. McElroy's Resident Evil, including an interview with McElroy! Hopefully, he talked about both versions (or more?) of his script, first draft from May 1997, and revised...
Some more pictures of deleted scenes and artwork of monsters which were in earlier scripts. Many thanks to NemesisBiohazard for letting us know about this;
Deleted Scene; Wesker and Ada talking inside RPD station before he and Alpha team board the chopper. Of course, this is the same scene...
Most RE fans probably already know about this, and can find some more info if you search for it, but just to give anyone else a short version of troubled development through which Resident Evil: Welcome To Raccoon City went through;
Originally developed as $40 million action horror sometime...
Maybe you're onto something there, or it could be that Capcom is re-using some of the stuff they cut from previous games. Like that rumor about female B.O.W helping the main character through entire game? It reminds me on one of the character/plot parts which were in Resident Evil 3.5 before...
Is something wrong with your messages? Because this one and one at my George Romero RE fan comic thread didn't show up for what seems like couple weeks. Anyway, as far as i know, at least when it comes to script trading and collecting, there were no news about any more Romero's drafts or any of...
Maybe somebody already posted something about this on other threads here, but anyway...
RE fan by the name of Sisslethecat is currently working on his comic adaptation of George A. Romero's unproduced Resident Evil script. So far, i have to say he's doing pretty good job with it, and in case if...
Looks like i'm bit late to do that, i suppose PlutoKick already sent you a copy. Hope you'll enjoy it, it's not exactly unproduced masterpiece, but still pretty decent survival thriller in my opinion. Personally, while i really like the script, i'd put Carpenter's other unproduced 70's script...
Maverick already went into details about earlier draft of the script for WTRC;

And it looks like there were even more differences in even earlier drafts...
Thanks for sharing all this Maverick! I agree with Bran, it sounds much better and would make a better movie. Now i wonder, if Constantin had something to do with changes made on the script, will we start hearing usual rumors about studio interference and such, if Roberts or somebody else...
Me too. And while it probably wasn't much better (based on his Mortal Kombat drafts) i wouldn't mind reading Greg Russo's script. But i think reading what WTRC was supposed to be originally would be more interesting. I keep checking around for info about any leaked drafts, but as far as i know...
