You know, the Doom movie really sucked. It really had nothing to do with the game. The first line in the movie is something like "an ancient civilization built a portal to Mars that was discovered in Nevada in 2026". Everyone in the theater was like "what the @#!*?". How hard would it have been to follow the original story?
The demons were from a virus, and shot their tongues as projectiles. How freakin' hard would it have been to make them demons from hell? Why did it have to have a stupid stargate story? Why can't they just fly in a ship to Mars? And the sets. They had a whole set design in the game. But instead, they spent most of the time hanging out in a sewer. I wanted to see blue metallic panels.
Doom without hell isn't Doom. The original story was much better. Teleportation experiments open a portal to hell, and demons have to be stopped from invading Earth.
Here's a letter by the scriptwriter to Doom fans. He explains he wants to "expand" the Doom universe. I am guessing someone who financed the film didn't want it to have any occult references:

A real Doom movie would have been really awesome.
