10 Most Underwhelming Bosses In Resident Evil History

10. The Daughters Of Dimitrescu - Resident Evil: Village

The first entry comes from the most recent release in the franchise, the highly anticipated Resident Evil Village.

In the run up to this game, it is safe to say that there wasn’t too much focus on the effort's central protagonist, the faceless Ethan Winters or even on series' mainstay Chris Redfield. The true stars of the Village hype train were Lady Dimitrescu and her three deadly, confusingly sexy daughters.

“Hmmm, man-blood” one of them proclaims as they capture you almost immediately upon entering Castle Dimitrescu, before driving farming sickles through your legs and dragging you before their mother.

It is here that Capcom fall victim to their own success.

The universally positive reception of the Mr. X stalking mechanic in Resident Evil 2 Remake, coupled with the spotlight on the Dimitrescu clan in the promotional materials created audience expectations that, unfortunately were not met. The Dimitrescu daughters only stalk you through a small portion of the castle and, when it finally comes time to face them, the solution for killing them is awarded to you in a cutscene rather than being left for you to figure out for yourself.

All three daughters are dispatched in the same way, and it unfortunately makes for an underwhelming trio of boss encounters.
