Resident Evil Director Reveals Dangerous Stunt
Zach Cregger, the director of the new Resident Evil movie, talked about a very dangerous stunt that almost hurt the actor Austin Abrams.
In the scene, Abrams is running down a street while zombies are leaping from the rooftops.
The director wanted to use real explosions and falling 'blood bags' instead of computer effects.
One of these bags almost hit Abrams and could have seriously injured him.
The director said it was worth the risk because the scene looks amazing in the movie.
The Resident Evil franchise has been very successful, making over $1.2 billion at the box office.
The new movie will be in theaters soon.
