Watching Doom:Annihilation on Netflix
Man, I don’t think anything could make the 2005 movie with Dwayne Johnson and Karl Urban look good. At least they made it more explicit about opening a portal to Hell than the old movie, but it’s still pretty wretched (most enemies are zombies and Imps, which are very obviously guys in suits) . The look and plot are more or less Doom 3, including the trip to Hell at the end. In true SJW fashion, the surviving marine is now a young woman.

Just say no.

It sucked. So did the other one. Typical D-grade scifi.

Yep. It's a direct-to-video B-(or C- or D-)movie, rushed through on a shoestring budget by Universal after the video game studio responsible for Doom refused any involvement with the film. That alone should be enough red flags to tell you not to bother.
