| Doom: Annihilation | comment |
Doom: Annihilation is a 2019 Direct-to-Video film based on the Doom video game franchise - particularly drawing inspiration from Doom³ and Doom (2016). It is unrelated to the 2005 Doom film with Dwayne Johnson and Karl Urban.It stars Amy Manson as Lt. Joan Dark- part of a squad of UAC Marines en route to a research facility on the Martian moon Phobos. The facility is running tests on interplanetary teleportation under Dr. Malcolm Betruger (Dominic Mafham), but when the portal is first tested it causes a power surge that cuts off contact with the base. The marines enter the base to find it overrun with monsters and must fight for survival. | |

Retired Badass: Chaplain Glover is revealed to be a former soldier. This becomes some sort of a Chekhov's Skill when, after seemingly dying, he appears and attempts to gun down an imp when it tries to kill Joan. Unfortunately, it gets him killed instead. | |

Dirty Coward: Sgt. Friesen runs away from the demons in two separate battles - both times leaving one of his squadmates behind. Both times he manages to reunite with his comrades despite everything - and after rescuing Carley from an imp he arguably becomes a Cowardly Lion. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Doom: Annihilation / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: The series's most iconic weapons - the Super Shotgun, Chainsaw, and BFG 9000 - all make appearances. The Phobos Base's key cards appear to be based on the ones from the 2016 game. Joan's backstory of being reassigned to Phobos as punishment for going against a superior is generally similar to Doomguy's backstory in the original game. One of the dead marines on Phobos is named Blazkowicz, which has been the Doom Marine's name in some continuities and doubles as a reference to his ancestor from Wolfenstein. One of the dead scientists is named after John Carmack - the lead programmer of the original Doom. Another dead scientist is named after Olivia Pierce (a character who was basically Betruger's Distaff Counterpart in the 2016 game, playing the same role as the lead scientist who betrayed humanity to the demons). The unnamed demons that invade the Phobos base act similarly to the Imps from 2016: they run fast, throw fireballs, and claw at their prey at close range. The demons in the portal to Hell look like a mixture of 2016's Imps and the Doom 64 variety. After Betruger goes through the portal, one of the scientists goes to retrieve medical supplies from a wall-mounted first aid station that looks identical to the health stations in Doom³. The ship's AI is named Daisy, which was also the name of Doomguy's pet rabbit. The pilot also has a rabbit's foot keychain. The comic book version of the BFG (itself based on the original game's Beta version) is used, rather than the one from the games. Basically, a souped-up plasma rifle rather than the man-portable Wave-Motion Gun we all know and love. | |

Death by Adaptation | |
| Doom: Annihilation / int_48c99e19 | comment |
Death by Adaptation: Quite possibly the Doom Marine himself. One of the dead marines they find on Phobos is named Blazkowicz, which has been the Doom Marine's name in some continuities of Doom. Blazkowicz also has a key to the BFG 9000 armory, adding fuel to this speculation. | |

Downer Ending | |
| Doom: Annihilation / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: By the end of the film everybody on the Phobos station is either dead or zombified, Joan's entire squad is dead, the portal is left open for a full scale demonic invasion force to come to Earth, and - given that she's tranquilized right next to said open portal - Joan probably dies very shortly after the cut to black. | |

Artistic License – Military: The squad in the film is just shy of a complete rabble, with subordinates openly questioning or threatening their superiors, one soldier who consistently abandons his squadmates in firefights, and a Lieutenant who was tried for insubordination, resulting in the squad's punishment posting to Phobos. To say nothing of them bringing non-standard-issue weapons, equipment, and training on their mission, apparently, for shits and giggles. | |

When the base informs the audience there's 27 minutes left until failure, the movie's been running for 41 minutes (meaning there's 56 minutes left) and several minutes later, a character says they have thirty minutes left. | |

Fate Worse than Death | |
| Doom: Annihilation / int_b1346878 | comment |
Fate Worse than Death: The imps remove the soul of whoever they can incapacitate. Not only does the victim's soul go straight to Hell, but their body is left behind as a feral zombie that will kill other humans on sight. This is inflicted upon half the staff of the Phobos station and Bennett. | |

Omnicidal Maniac: Stanga and the demons very explicitly despise every living being in existence and are all too eager to wipe all life off the face of the universe. | |

Truer to the Text: The previous Doom film had the monsters as mutated humans, not demons. Here the film's monsters are demons, and much like in the games, the protagonist travels to Hell. | |

Adaptational Explanation | |
| Doom: Annihilation / int_b7fa9b36 | comment |
Adaptational Explanation: The inclusion of chainsaws on UAC space bases has been a bit of Fridge Logic for the Doom series as a whole, though a couple of games do give in-universe reasons for their presencenote In Doom 3, they're the result of a shipping error, while in 2016, it's implied an employee smuggled one in for their own purposes. In Annihilation, the Phobos Base has an agricultural module (either for air filtering or fresh veggies), and the saws are for use on the trees.invoked | |

Adaptational Wimp | |
| Doom: Annihilation / int_d500b978 | comment |
Adaptational Wimp: The BFG 9000. In the classic games, every shot also emits invisible tracer rays capable of clearing an entire room, while in Doom³ and 2016, each shot emits massive streams of energy that target every enemy within a wide vicinity of its flight path. Here it fires small basic energy rounds that seem to kill one enemy per hit; it seems to be substantially weaker than most of the normal weapons from the games. | |

No Help Is Coming: The marines lose all their communications equipment and thus can't call Mars for backup. It's pointed out that Mars's forces will eventually send help when the marines miss their check-in, but the Phobos station's reactor will melt down long before then. | |
