Having dipped its toe in almost everything ranging from true crime stories to mushy on-screen adaptations of young adult novels, and of course, a satirical spin on the dystopian world, Netflix is now gearing up to dive into the sensational and gory zombie genre of horror, and as usual, it is no stereotypical watch.

Its upcoming show 'Kingdom,' tells the story of a zombie apocalypse set in the medieval period, thus providing for an unexpected style of the genre, something that has worked in favor of the streaming giant.
