7/10
Good for what it is.

Yikes! Not sure what all the 1s and 2s are about for the ratings here, but perhaps the expectations were too high for many.

I was expecting really just to see essentially a four episode cut-scene of what another RE game would be and that's pretty much what it is. Also, my expectations were as low as they could be due to the previous RE motion pictures and other animation entries. If you're expecting something ground breaking or something fleshed out like Netflix's "The Kingdom", you are going to be disappointed; however, if you just like RE games, the lore and tropes then it's worth a watch. Speaking of lore, this cut scene, I mean show, does seem to have a few inconsistencies with the some of the previous characters, but it does appear to be canon taking place between RE4 and RE5.

Lastly, only being four episodes...I get the feeling this is just a test bed to see how well something like this is received much like Castlevania S1.
