Remember that awful adaptation of the House of the Dead movie directed by Uwe Boll? I don’t wanna remember it either (Just watched the movie the last week X[) Anyway, there’s a prequel comic for promotional uses that takes place before the events of the movie. The story begins with five ravers heading to the island where the rave party is taking place. As they entered the island, two ravers stumble upon a zombie. One female raver decides to stick her finger in the zombie mouth and the zombie then bites and kills the two ravers. The other three went to check out the situation only to see the other two ravers disemboweled. Suddenly, a zombie appears behind one of the ravers and kills him by shoving it’s hand through his mouth. With only two ravers left, they tried to leave the island. Angela tries to run away with the last raver only to be killed by possibly a Kageo (the mummified creature). With one raver standing, he escaped along with a woman who lived in the island who was surprisingly a zombie. The last raver then met his end.
The comic is only a few pages and while I still don’t like the setting in both the movie and this comic, I liked how some of the creatures/zombies are drawn like the ones from the game. Some even looked like the Sam, Samson, and Kageo series. I’ll probably scan this comic later for download. For now, check out a preview from the book.
So far I have all three House of the Dead comics/manga. I actually wanted to share another secret, there was a time where The House of the Dead series actually made a cameo in Archie’s Sonic the Hedgehog comic book series issue #50.
That’s it for now, the next comic I will show off is the Prelude to OVERKILL.
