Resident Evil (2026) was the No. 1 movie on IMDb MOVIEmeter on September 26, 2026. Ranks 2 to 5: The End of Oak Street (2026), Sacrifice (2025), The Odyssey (2026) and Mayday (2026). The top 10 was unchanged from September 25, 2026. The full ranked top 10 is below, each with a short note on why it is trending.
The timestamp moved but the order did not, which makes weekend box office holdovers and trailer traffic the likely click drivers rather than new entrants. Rank 4 The Odyssey and rank 6 Practical Magic 2 remain high on anticipation lists while rank 8 Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma signals horror curiosity.

What today's IMDb MOVIEmeter trends reveal
A static top 10 with a new timestamp usually means one blockbuster is absorbing most clicks while catalog 2026 slots fill out the long tail. Resident Evil’s eight-day domestic total above $65 million explains rank 1 persistence better than any rank shuffle.
