All Netflix subscribers moan about "we want more new content give us more new content" so Netflix provides new content. To be fair, it is worth remembering this was filmed during a pandemic... expect less, be more satisfied :) I have learned to have low expectations for most things now, but I have watched some really great low budget films on Netflix.

I am not a resident evil fan persay, zombie movies tend to bore me. They all feel the same; that is my personal preference. But I like to give new material a go. Which is why I watched this.

I quite enjoyed the more personal storyline with a well placed background to the reason for the zombie invasion. This series is an veritable gold mine for conspiracists!

All in all, not terrible. It isn't something I could recommend if you are a die-hard Resident Evil fan because it appears to be far from the original storyline. Is it a prequel? As a standalone reboot? Maybe. More story than action, and a little predictable, (but what isn't, these days?).

These are all the reasons I feel a 5 is a reasonable score. I think it deserves more than just 1 but isn't really gripping enough fore more than 5. Watch this, but go into it with the knowledge its been produced during a pandemic, is probably low budget, and the storyline has to span multiple episodes. Lower your expectations and watch it at face value and you may find it watchable...
