The Resident Evil video game franchise has been spawning all kinds of interesting and exciting projects over the last few years. This includes the upcoming Netflix series, appropriately titled Resident Evil, that will once again adapt the games for a live-action narrative. Now Netflix has unveiled a new trailer for Resident Evil which shows just how much carnage fans of the series can expect.
Although the footage suggests that the new Netflix series will be taking its own unique spin on the classic lore, there are still plenty of elements that fans will recognize. For example, it appears that the evil Umbrella Corporation is front and center for most of this series. There are also plenty of familiar monsters and gnarly mutations, not to mention hordes of flesh-eating zombies. With both horror and action being teased in this new trailer, it certainly looks like a fun watch.
