‘Resident Evil’ Game Fans Thrash Netflix Live-Action Series’ Trailer, Dislikes Double Likes

How would you feel if your favorite game would be made into a television show?
Well, fans of Resident Evil don’t seem to be very pleased with the upcoming
adaptation  Netflix recently revealed the details of its upcoming Netflix
original live-action series Resident Evil on Netflix Geeked Week 2022. The
series is based on a game of the same name, launched in 1996, and since then, it
has had various video game sequels, novels, and a popular movie franchise. With
such popularity, what went wrong with the upcoming show?


NETFLIX ORIGINAL RESIDENT EVIL TRAILER AND MORE

Netflix reveals the details of the series, which has several monsters. The
trailer reveals two plots unravelling simultaneously. One follows the lives of
Jade and Billie Wesker, and the second focuses on the Umbrella Corporation
experiments with DNA, bugs, blood, and beyond. Umbrella Corporation

is evidently trying to save the world but can they? Let’s look at the trailer.

It seems that the showmakers have tried to bring the essence of the original
game but somehow couldn’t keep their instincts of giving its own creative twist
to it away. While the tone of the show seems intense and serious, which includes
bloodshed and suffering, it doesn’t have just zombies. The trailer exposes
zombie dogs, and giant spiders, too, just like the original has.

as well.


FANS LOVE AND HATE THE TRAILER

Fans have mixed reactions to the show. Some are thrilled about the series coming
out while others are disappointed. They expected the setting for the zombies to
be claustrophobic, and not worldwide.
