'Resident Evil' on Netflix Getting Brutal Reactions From Video Game Series' Fans
Dubbed 'boring, pointless' by some viewers
"Resident Evil on Netflix may be the most boring, pointless garbage I've seen all year, with absolutely nothing in common with its source material," tweeted one viewer. "Its so bad, it makes the Milla Jovovich movies look like absolute works of art in comparison."

"It's like they took an entirely different script and called it Resident Evil. Teen drama with zombies? Wesker is a dad? Insanely terrible dialogue?" wrote another viewer. "This makes Welcome To Raccoon City look like an actual good Resident Evil adaptation. I mean what the actual f-..."

So I saw the first episode of the new Netflix Resident Evil show and found it pretty funny that the zombies that were chasing the main character suddenly stop when she gets grabbed. I guess they must really respect finders keepers. #ResidentEvilNetflix pic.twitter.com/qEmpiDQaJr

"Everything works pretty well for Jade hahaha It's so funny," one person responded to the above tweet. "Lickers make a suprise attack on everyone besides her. B4 one attacks her, first it wants to say hi, get to the second base with her and then try to kill her, so that's perfect convenient to her scape."

So far everything I’ve seen about the Resident Evil Netflix series includes just about anything you could possibly think of except for people investigating a haunted house https://t.co/g4dczny3oL

"I don't know anything about the Resident Evil games but I don't think zootopia porn was in them," added somebody else.

Sad part is that he actually look badass too. But they seriously shouldn't have cast him as Wesker. They should have made him an original character. It not like Netflix needed the iconic characters.

"I feel bad for Lance Reddick man," one person tweeted. "He's a great actor and obviously tries his best but being cast as Wesker in a Netflix adaption of Resident Evil is being set up to fail."

I would feel embarrassed if I where capcom right now. You allowed people to butcher your IP 8 times with these live action adaptions. What's even more embarrassing is that the sonic films got it right twice than all 8 attempts with the RE films....wow#ResidentEvilNetflix pic.twitter.com/tolsBvxzUv

"[Resident Evil] is Resident Evil in nothing but name. I went in blind and I was still disappointed. Dozed off by episode 2. Excellent performances, just incredibly questionable writing," tweeted somebody else. "Did [Capcom] sign-off on this?"
