Everyone knows Resident Evil games are as creepy as they come. By far, the scariest Resident Evil trailer we've ever come across.

By far, the scariest Resident Evil trailer we've ever come across.The horror of every RE game, however, pales in comparison to the sheer terror you’ll feel while watching the new Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition trailer on Capcom's Japanese website.But not good terror. It's really bad, "I feel insulted with cheesiness" sort of terror.The ad features an American guy showing off to his girlfriend with his Wiimote skills while tagging zombies and priests in RE 4 Wii Edition, which is pretty odd, truth be told.The dialogue is bad and if the video is telling of what the gameplay will be like – the actor spent the whole trailer with his arm raised in the air to aim – RE 4 might give gamers major arm cramps.

The star and co-star of the new Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition trailer... decked out in very-scary all white outfits and roguish good looks. Terrifying.

From there, all hell breaks loose – real zombies show up and the guy has to fight through basically a shortened version of the end of the game leading up to Leon’s loving embrace with… sorry, no spoilers!Anyways, we know this ad is designed for Japanese consumers, but that leads us to believe one of two things: Either Japanese gamers are really corny and have little to no taste, or Capcom thinks Japanese gamers are really corny and have little to no taste.Watch the Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition trailer here and you decide.
