Description:

Dead Space: Downfall serves as a prelude to the popular Electronic Arts video game. In the distant future, the crew of the ship Ishimura discovers a mysterious artifact on a barren planet "several million light years" from Earth. Members of the Unitologist Church believe it's a holy object that will help humans overcome death. Hidden within it are monsters who take over the crew's bodies, mutate into grotesque beasts, and attack everything in sight. Although tough-as-press-on-nails security chief Alissa Vincent leads a bloody battle against the aliens, the entire crew is transmogrified and/or devoured: The stage is set for Isaac Clarke to board the remains of the Ishihara and kick some alien butt. As a film Dead Space: Downfall makes little sense. What did the aliens live on before the humans arrived? Why is their body chemistery perfectly attuned to homo sapiens? Why do church members regard the artifact as holy when no one's seen it before? Fans of the game may be willing to overlook the incoherent story, stolid direction, and uninspired animation that apes anime. Uninitiated viewers should look elsewhere for entertainment.

Dead Space: Aftermath (2011) is an animated feature based on the Electronic Arts video game Dead Space. In 2509, the USG O'Bannon travels to the planet Aegis VII on a top-secret mission to find fragments of a mysterious alien structure. Only four crew members survive their trip to the volcanic surface, which looks suspiciously like the primal Earth in the "Rite of Spring" sequence in Fantasia. Scientist Nolan Stross, who seems to know the most about it, babbles that the artifact holds the key to the future of human evolution. It induces hallucinations in living humans and somehow turns cadavers into mutated zombies, as the surviving quartet reveal after being subjected to "enhanced interrogation techniques" (i.e. torture) by nasty government agents. Visually, the film seesaws between three-dimensional present actions and two-dimensional flashbacks. Neither style is used particularly skillfully, and the characters' appearances shift from scene to scene. Fans of Dead Space may enjoy the expanded vision of its world; viewers not familiar with the game will dismiss Aftermath as a mishmash of violent killings, gratuitous profanity, cheesy animation, and hokey dialogue.
