O Residente Vil perdido na imitação : repetição e transmutação.

Abstract

Pop culture is marked by works that derive from one another. These derivations can happen in more direct ways, for example, when a work is based on another previous work. It is also very common for these derivations to occur in less explicit ways, where a text can reference another text without producing any reference of said text. These forms of repetition of content are present in any existing fictional works, however they are reproduced more directly in Hollywood cinema supported by franchises. This research analyzes these elements of repetition using the film adaptation of the game Resident Evil as a study object to bring out its intertextual connections.
