Almost two months after the successful crowdfunding campaign, director Andrew Saullo announced via X that filming has completed on his fan film The Keeper’s Diary: A Biohazard Story. The team reportedly crammed in 20-hour days over the past three weeks in Michigan to build sets, assemble the actors and shoot the film, which will now head to the editing room.
The eventual release of the fan film (for free on the Residence of Evil YouTube Channel) is aiming for Q4 2023 – Q1 2024. There’s still no word yet on if The Keeper’s Diary will see a live screening for fans, though that has been discussed by Saullo and his team.
Inspired by the original Resident Evil and its 2002 remake, The Keeper’s Diary: A Biohazard Story is an adaptation of the diary entry of the same name found in the Spencer Mansion. It summarizes a researcher (played by Charlie Kraslavsky, who played Chris Redfield in the live-action cutscenes in Resident Evil) succumbing to a viral outbreak in an underground research facility. The film will also feature the talents of Ward E. Sexton, who did the iconic “Resident Evil” voiceover when you started a new game.
In addition to Kraslavsky and Sexton, another Resident Evil alumni, Pablo Kuntz, has joined the project’s cast as a voice actor. Kuntz was the voice actor for the original Resident Evil‘s Albert Wesker (not to be confused with Eric Pirius, who played Wesker in the the live-action cutscenes).
