Quake movie trailer (Fake)

Based on the video game series of the same name.
The original Quake was a fairly plotless but excellently crafted first person shooter made to improve on Doom, but the second game I think has a fine cinematic plot.
-
The second game opens with an audio montage (included in the trailer) of first contact with an alien race called The Strogg leading eventually to an attack on Earth and mass devastation. After a final push defeats the alien menace, the united space military forces track the Strogg to their homeplanet of Strogos to end their threat once and for all. The player starts off as one of these marines, air dropped into the fight, but knocked off course. This deviation turns out to be a stroke of luck since he out of his entire battalion survives the bombardment. Alone behind enemy lines, the lone marine must deactivate the massive anti-space craft weapon array (or 'Big Gun' as it's known) and confront the Strogg leader called Makron, ending the war.
Well, until Quake 4 came along.
The plot is simple, but there are interesting aspects I think that keep it compelling. For one thing, the Strogg are an unusual enemy being literally amalgamations of cyborg machinery and captured organics, so their ranks are always growing as they capture more and more soldiers. Equally interesting I think is the 'down home' nature of the marines. Having just come from Earth's first intergalactic war, they are not particularly well trained in anything except resiliency and resourcefulness. They are regular people fighting for their world and their species, one of them the unsuspecting hero who might just save the universe.

I hate it when you watch one of these fake trailers and you know where some of the clips are from.

@alex9292007

The original Quake was basically Doom (people discover evil portal) but the second game, the one I made this trailer for, I described the story in the description :)

Once they made a Doom movie, they could make a Quake one too!

@bloodrunsclear It wasn't basically Doom... Mankind created the portals. Many of the atrocities throughout the game are of Lovecraftian lore/origin (Shambler, Shub Niggurath)

@bloodrunsclear I mean, where this line was taken from?

[bloodrunsclear]

@kristallize

I guess whatever made The Strogg in the first place :)

[kristallize]

@GabrielOnuris so, who traveled in time and space?

[Spystreak]

nicely done except all the trek stuff (I'm a starwars fanatic XD)

You should do one of the first quake game.
