The DOOM Movie trailer has been released. Directed by Andrzej Bartkowiak, the movie stars Karl Urban as John Grim and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as Sarge. Anyone who has played any of the DOOM games will enjoy this trailer (or hate it), as it has pulse pounding scenes and you get a glimpse of the monsters. Most of the movie is based on the video game DOOM 3, but there are new additions and parts from the other DOOM games. The DOOM movie is slated to be released on October 21, 2005.

The Doom movie, in case you've been gaming so intensely that you haven't heard, follows John Grimm (Karl Urban), a Marine nicknamed "Reaper," who travels with his squad to a Martian research facility where all hell is breaking loose.

Sarge, played by Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, leads the team to the facility, owned and operated by the Union Aerospace Corporation, where researchers have just discovered the final 10% of the human genome... but with unexpected side effects. Specifically, residents are turning up dead or missing, frayed and bloody lab coats are found, and severed limbs are discovered. It seems that the project has somehow unleashed monstrous, infernal beings and now it's up to John to destroy them and save the day.
