Netflix Prepares for ‘Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness’ By Adding ‘Afterlife’ and ‘Extinction’ Next Month
Not one but two different original Resident Evil projects are on the way from Netflix, with the animated series “Resident Evil: Infinite Darkness” coming in July and a live-action series also in the works. In preparation, we’ve learned today that two of the movies are headed to Netflix.
Both Resident Evil: Afterlife and Resident Evil: Extinction come to Netflix on May 1.
In Paul W.S. Anderson’s Afterlife, “While still out to destroy the evil Umbrella Corporation, Alice joins a group of survivors living in a prison surrounded by the infected who also want to relocate to the mysterious but supposedly unharmed safe haven known only as Arcadia.”
And in Russell Mulcahy’s Extinction, “Survivors of the Raccoon City catastrophe travel across the Nevada desert, hoping to make it to Alaska. Alice joins the caravan and their fight.”
Resident Evil: Extinction is one of my personal favorite sequels in the franchise, for whatever that’s worth, putting Milla Jovovich‘s Alice into a Mad Max-style wasteland.
If you’d rather revisit the films on Blu-ray, you can pick up the complete 6-film Resident Evil collection over on Amazon for just $24.95. All around, it’s a fun zombie-slaying saga.
One of my personal favorite horror movies of all time, 1987’s gateway horror classic The Gate is opening back up on May 14 with a brand new Blu-ray SteelBook release from Lionsgate!
The new release will feature fresh SteelBook artwork from Vance Kelly, seen below.

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones. Instead, they unearth The Gate — an underground chamber of terrifying demonic evil. The teenagers soon understand what evil they’ve released as they are overcome with an assortment of horrific experiences. With fiendish followers invading suburbia, it’s now up to the kids to discover the secret that can lock The Gate forever . . . if it’s not too late.
If you’ve never seen The Gate, it’s now streaming on Prime Video and Tubi.
