# House of the Dead (2003)

2003 · R · 90 min · Action, Horror, Science Fiction, Thriller · Germany, United States, Canada


## Synopsis

House of the Dead is a 2003 action horror film directed by Uwe Boll, from a screenplay by Dave Parker and Mark A. Altman. Based on The House of the Dead video game franchise, it stars Jonathan Cherry, Tyron Leitso, Clint Howard, Ona Grauer, Ellie Cornell, and Jürgen Prochnow. The film takes place on a fictional island infested by zombies, forcing survivors to fight their way off. Not a direct adaptation of the individual entries, Boll described the film as a prequel to the original 1997 game, but loosely due to canon and timeline from the game. House of the Dead was Boll's first film to be released theatrically, in addition to his first video game adaptation.
