Resident Evil Trailer Teases Zombie-Infested World

By Jessica Lerner 

“Nothing eventful ever happens in the peaceful New Raccoon City,” the tagline for Netflix’s Resident Evil states. Yeah, right.

Resident Evil will deliver on the zombie-infested terror of the video games, with no shortage of gruesome carnage, the lurking danger of Umbrella and fleeting teases of Resident Evil’s quirkier side, as shown in Netflix’s first teaser trailer for the television series.

The show premieres on Netflix on July 14.
