    A very bleak series. Unfolding in the present and future, it's not particularly engaging in either time frame, feeling less like an evolution than an uninspired variant of what's come before.

    Save for a typically sturdy Lance Reddick turn, it’s the sort of half-baked thriller most fans will likely abandon mid-adventure.

    Flounders under poor execution, awkward performances, and fan service that rarely works. There's a great Resident Evil adaptation in here somewhere, but like the zeroes scattered throughout this show, Resident Evil mostly just bites.

    I’ve no words… This is… I… I just can’t.

    It’s crap. Pure unadulterated crap.

    I just don't understand it. Why even use pay to use the "Resident Evil" name and then not make a RE show? You alienate and piss off the REI just don't understand it. Why even use pay to use the "Resident Evil" name and then not make a RE show? You alienate and piss off the RE fans, non-fans will pass, and then you have no one caring. Its a terrible RE show and a subpar meh Zombie show. Everyone loses, no one cares. You shouldn't either. Full Review »

    typical netflix, shove a bunch of teens into it, add drama, zombies and some bad jokes, rate it R and it'll still be bad, I feel bad for the actors
