There’s tons and tons of Comic-Con news to report, but this is a juicy news item I just couldn’t bear to overlook. Electronic Arts ‘ ” Dead Space ” is one of my favorite video games of 2008. It feels like the bastard love-child of “Event Horizon” and “Aliens,” half-head trip and half-”oh my god, zombie-aliens are trying to rip my face off!” The multimedia-savvy video game publisher behind the hit “Madden” and “Sims” franchises is now looking to Hollywood for a “Dead Space” movie… Sa
Eagle Eye director D.J. Caruso may have been developing an adaptation of Brian K. Vaughn’s Y: The Last Man , but according to new reports it looks like he’ll be taking on EA’s Dead Space first.

User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Excellent Film and Excellent Blu-Ray
I bought the original DVD of this movie and I was very disappointed with the quality of that transfer. The Blu-Ray version however is amazing.
Having grown up playing Doom, it was great to see what basically is the same plot but in live action and not as cheesy as the Doom movie was. The special effects hold up very well and the direction of the film is great. A lot of tension and suspense.
If this movie interests you then you should try the video game Dead Space as well.
5 Stars Great Movie
Great movie. They really enhanced this over the old VHS tape I had. I loved this movie back then, and I love it even more now. Colors were great and so were the details.
4 Stars A Good Follow-up For Event Horizon Fans
This is a well-made sci-fi horror film standing out in a genre where so few of them make much of an impact beside great ones like Alien. The cast is strong, portraying well scripted characters. The horror is constant and genuinely creepy throughout. I can’t think of too many other sci-fi horror films that do a better job.
As far as the Special Edition is concerned, fans of the movie such as myself, will be pleased at the amount of attention spent on a movie over ten years old. Film documentary watchers will have plenty to watch and the deleted scenes are interesting to see without the special effects placed in. A good amount of content for film enthusiasts.
4 Stars Finally on Blu-ray
If you’re looking at the Blu-ray reviews and deciding whether to purchase then you’ve likely already seen this flick so I will not waste your time with the stuff you already know.
I picked this up locally the day it came out. Now you bought your Blu-ray player for jaw dropping visuals one would assume. This movie will NOT give that to you. That being said, the movie is a lot sharper on Blu-ray, the colors are more distinguished, and you will notice more in the background. The truly impressive visuals are found in the warp drive - spike ball, gyroscope engine drive thing. There is a grainy look to the film as well.
If you’ve been a fan of this movie by all means purchase it. It’s a unique film, a piece of art in my opinion and well worth the money. HD snobs who can’t get beyond a PERFECT transfer will trash the movie as you have already read if you’ve made it this far down the line of reviews 
3 Stars BLU RAY Review
Love the movie but no wow effects on the video quality. Id say that the upconversion on the standard dvd would be of same detail that of this blu ray edition.
We talk with EA’s producer about the gorgeous new Wii-exclusive shooter and we’ve got first-ever direct-feed, too!
