Connection To Games
The movie is based on the video game series The House of the Dead much more so than the previous film. Both feature some kind of medical facility overrun by zombies, and AMS agents are dispatched to contain it. This movie also shows the 4th game as the AMS agents struggle to break free from the zombies. In this film, AMS agents are dressed up as rogue commandos, and just like in The House of the Dead III, some of them are killed or turned into zombies. Both AMS commandos survive in the ending of the movie, not in the game. The survivors are Ellis and Alex (AMS commandos).
The subtitle for which the film is known is also the name of one installment of another survival horror game: Resident Evil: Dead Aim.

Famous quotes containing the words connection and/or games:
“The smallest fact about the connection between character and hormonal balance offers more insight into the soul than a five-story idealistic system [of philosophy] does.”
—Robert Musil (1880–1942)
“In 1600 the specialization of games and pastimes did not extend beyond infancy; after the age of three or four it decreased and disappeared. From then on the child played the same games as the adult, either with other children or with adults. . . . Conversely, adults used to play games which today only children play.”
—Philippe Ariés (20th century)
