10 Horror Movie Franchises Which Got Terribly Adapted TWICE

On the surface, 2005’s Doom seemed like it could be the first decent film adapted from a video game. It had a solid cast, Clint Mansell composed the soundtrack, and it contained an incredible first-person action sequence that recreated the look of the iconic gaming shooter.

Unfortunately, there was one colossal problem. Rather than fighting monsters from Hell like the source material, the film adaptation has our hero pitted against infected humans. Sure, Doom has its fair share of problems, but nothing was as unforgivable as this pointless retcon in the eyes of die-hard fans. Although critics tore Doom apart, nobody hated it more than gamers.

Luckily, the 2019 reboot felt like a step in the right direction, since it implemented major elements from the game’s storyline. Most importantly, the villains were actually demons this time around.

But Doom: Annihilation turned out so badly, it’ll compel viewers to defend its predecessor. Due to the ropey dialogue, bad acting, and plastic sets, Annihilation feels like a failed TV pilot, and it never comes across as scary, primarily because the CGI demons resemble something from a PlayStation 2 game.
