New DVD releasedimitrescu, inspired, killer, resident, serial, village

Resident Evil Village, Capcom’s newest vision of horror, unleashed its villain, Lady Alcina Dimitrescu, onto the world in January, and the internet has hardly been the same since. Before we’d even seen anything substantial from the new game, the nine-foot “Tall Vampire Lady” was already the sequel’s most popular character, the subject of countless memes and even a few…salacious mods and videos. With the release of the game this month, Dimitrescu’s star is shining even brighter. We just can’t stop talking about our Lady. And when you hear who the developers at Capcom turned to for inspiration when creating this…

Weeks after her reveal, Resident Evil fans are still obsessed with Lady Alcina Dimitrescu, the latest standout villain in a series full of them. Specifically, gamers are unexpectedly taken by her height. When you look her up on Google or Twitter, you’ll find people talking about how tall she is, and more recently, how her height compares to other villains in the franchise. Kotaku initially speculated in a very entertaining article that Lady Dimitrescu was eight feet tall, but Capcom set the record straight this week, cheekily announcing the character’s height on Twitter: Your love for Lady Dimitrescu is loud…

Like you, we can’t get enough of Lady Alcina Dimitrescu: the extremely tall vampire lady who will apparently serve as one of Resident Evil Village‘s primary antagonists.

Resident Evil Village: How Lady Dimitrescu’s Daughters Pay Tribute to Dracula’s Brides

New DVD releasebrides, daughters, dimitrescu, dracula, resident, tribute, village

While Lady Dimitrescu’s mysterious nature and…umm…proportions quickly made her an internet favorite, some of the most fascinating characters from the Resident Evil Village trailers/demo have to be Lady Dimitrescu’s equally mysterious daughters. Even using the word “daughters” is potentially misleading. Lady Dimitrescu refers to the characters as her daughters, but aspects of the game’s lore hinted at by circumstantial evidence suggest that they may not actually be her daughters. There’s even a hint that they could somehow be manufactured. It’s also been noted that the characters share many design similarities with the famous “brides” of Dracula who typically occupy the…

When Resident Evil Village releases later this year, it’ll have the tough job of following up one of the best survival horror games released in the last decade: Resident Evil 7. While clearly inspired by innovative classics that came before like Amnesia, Outlast, and Hideo Kojima’s P.T. demo, Capcom did its own thing with its first-person horror thriller, introducing fans to a gruesome new bioweapon and new protagonist Ethan, a character very unlike the gun-toting STARS and Umbrella agents from the franchise’s past. The result was a hell of a ride full of scares, dismemberments, and more than a few…
