Netflix has been engaged on a are residing-action sequence of Resident Defective for a whereas now. In the end, at some stage exact through its Geeked Week tournament, the streaming huge dropped the first trailer of the zombie-action sequence.
Whereas the demonstrate shares the identical establish because the smartly-liked online sport franchise, of us at Netflix private adopted an fully current storyline, with current characters and a assorted reimagining of the zombie outbreak that wiped out existence on Earth.
Right here’s what the legit synopsis reads: “The Yr 2036 – 14 years after a deadly virus precipitated a world apocalypse, Jade Wesker fights for survival in a world overrun by the blood-thirsty contaminated and insane creatures. On this absolute carnage, Jade is haunted by her previous in Contemporary Raccoon City, by her father’s chilling connections to the Umbrella Company nonetheless largely by what came about to her sister, Billie.”
The 2-minute trailer opens with a hellish panorama covered with a horde of zombies making an strive to poke over a watchtower. We then slowly cut to the introduction of ‘The Umbrella Company,’ the final infamous guys within the video games, who liberate the T-Virus bringing forth the apocalypse.
