About

God Damn It, I Fucking Suck At Guns, also known simply as the I Suck At Guns Meme, refers to a line spoken in Zach Cregger's 2026 Resident Evil survival horror film, uttered by the protagonist Bryan Hodukavich (portrayed by actor Austin Abrams), who is depicted as a bumbling medical courier who repeatedly fails to use firearms in a survival-horror scenario.

Following the movie's debut in mid-September 2026, the quote became a favorite among the Resident Evil film's fandom, becoming the source for fan art and memes, as well as a relatable catchphrase. Most of the memes feature clips, GIFs or reaction images of the scene as a way to relate different things to Bryan Hodukavich's lack of skill with guns.

Origin

The line comes from the Resident Evil movie directed by Zach Cregger, which was released on September 18th, 2026, and is delivered after protagonist Bryan Hodukavich (played by Austin Abrams) misses an easy shot at a padlock with a pistol, yelling, "God damn it, I fucking suck at guns."

The clip can briefly be seen in the video "Zach Cregger on Survival Horror," uploaded to the official Sony Pictures Entertainment YouTube channel on May 21st, 2026, which garnered over 220,000 views in four months.
