Netflix has dropped the full Parasyte: The Grey trailer for its upcoming sci-fi horror series, which hails from Train to Busan director Yeon Sang-ho. It is scheduled to start streaming on April 5.
“In the series, Su-in, a young woman caught between her humanity and parasitic influence, embodies this recurring theme of coexistence. As Heidi, the parasite that latched onto Su-in in the aftermath of a near-fatal accident,” reads the series’ latest logline. “But as a mutant that’s half-parasite and half-human, Su-in doesn’t fully belong to either side — neither the parasites seeking to take over human society nor the team dedicated to eradicating parasitic organisms. And it’s this tension that plunges viewers into the heart of the conflict.”
