Doom: Annihilation was released in 2019 as a direct-to-video and digital film adaptation of the popular Doom video game series. Initially, it received largely negative reviews from critics and fans alike, who criticized its low-budget production values, lack of faithfulness to the source material, and uninspired storytelling. Over time, however, some viewers have reassessed the movie as a guilty pleasure for its campy, action-oriented approach and nostalgic appeal. While it hasn't fully achieved cult classic status, Doom: Annihilation is sometimes regarded as an underrated gem among fans of B-movie sci-fi horror, appreciated for its earnest attempt to capture the spirit of the games despite dated effects and clichéd plot elements.
