Cast
Reviews
Biohazard: The Stage garnered a mixed to positive reaction from both theater critics and fans of the Resident Evil franchise. On IMDb, the production holds a modest rating, with viewers appreciating the faithful adaptation of the source material and the energy of its live-action performances. Critics from niche Japanese theater sites praised the impressive fight choreography and creative use of stage effects to capture the horror atmosphere, with particular commendation for the cast's dedication. However, some reviews noted the pacing as uneven, with moments feeling rushed due to the constraints of live performance timing. Major Western review aggregators like Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic do not have extensive data on the stage play, reflecting its niche appeal and limited international release. Overall, Biohazard: The Stage succeeded in delivering an engaging experience for Resident Evil fans, though casual theatergoers might find the plot dense without familiarity with the game series.
