Generally speaking a movie based off of the video game is usually horrible. But this little cartoon is surprisingly decent. The animations a bit cheap it's that modern day basic Americanized animation but then what do you want? There's only so many Koreans in the world, you have to do with what you can get.
So the story goes, ;Video games are kind of garbage and most stories in video games suck too, but then one day somebody said ''hey I want to make an alien video game, but I don't want it to be garbage. So I know, let's get some influence from 'The Thing' and we'll stick them in our Alien video game'' bing bong boom. You get Dead-Space, one of the few video game stories that isn't complete and utter trash.
It's the story of what happens on the USG Ishimura before the events of the first video game. There's some random military chick and her team of ragtag Misfits who weren't good enough to get into 'The Dirty Dozen' there's a captain played by a voice actor who was in everything that's ever been made, including Winnie the Pooh (in fact I think he's the main voice of Winnie-the-Pooh.)
Then there's the Church of Scientology but it's been a few hundred years so I guess there legitimate now and give themselves a different name*, But I know the Church of Scientology when I see it,
A bunch of crazy people who worship a giant rock... Wait a minute I think that's Islam, ahh whatever, same difference.
I really do enjoy this universe, I love the creature design the mythology behind them, the wacky mysterious language, the interesting looking ships. At the end of the day this is as close to 'Alien' as we're ever going to get.
*it's the 'Church of Unitology' for the one person that gives a damn.
