Dead Space: Downfall (2008)

In the far reaches of the cosmos, aboard the mining spaceship USG Ishimura, a dream turns into a living nightmare. The crew, ardent Unitologists, revel in the discovery of the Marker, a mystical artifact hailed as "The Creator of All Things." Yet, what was meant to be a divine revelation morphs into a deathly echo, as the ship morphs into a crypt of madness and murder. Aegis VII, the colony where the Marker was unearthed, becomes a breeding ground for insanity. Suicides and homicides multiply, and the air grows thick with a palpable sense of dread. Barrow, a grief-stricken foreman, stumbles upon the lifeless body of his wife, a victim to the engulfing madness. Seeking solace, he flees the crumbling colony with his wife's corpse in tow, taking refuge within the perceived safety of the Ishimura's steel walls. Yet, the nightmare is far from over, and aboard the Ishimura, an unimaginable horror awaits. Amidst the chaos, Security Officer Alissa Vincent and her team of officers delve into the heart of the pandemonium. Their mission: to unearth the truth behind a mining accident that seems less accident and more the inception of the unfolding horror. As they descend deeper into the mystery, they uncover a chilling reality. Alien life, conjured from the depths of the Marker, is spreading through the ship, turning the crew into delusional killers. Vincent must now navigate through a labyrinth of insanity and death, in a desperate bid to save the ship, and herself. "Dead Space: Downfall" is a chilling prequel that paints a vivid picture of the genesis of a cosmic nightmare, etching the eerie beginnings of a catastrophe that would go on to shake the universe. A tale of hope, horror, and survival, it's a haunting journey into the heart of darkness, where the line between man and monster blurs, and the echoes of the past become the harbingers of a terrifying future.
