keep rating and watching this wonderful movie that so many of my friends helped out on! And let's make a clear point to EA- WE WANT MORE SYSTEM SHOCK!
-----------------------------
My entry for the Halloween BOOO-VIE Contest on Gametrailers!My crew and I spent all week on this, utlizing practical lighting, green screen effects, lots of props, and CGI-- A first for STRIKE A POSE!!! Films.

Based on the cult classic PC game SYSTEM SHOCK 2 by Looking Glass Studios, THE FIRST ENCOUNTER follows an unnamed man, awakened from Cryo-Sleep aboard the Von Braun, an intergalactic starship that has recently approached Tau Ceti V.

Something has gone horribly wrong, as he soon learns. Hauntings, monsters, an insane AI, and a ship that is falling apart at the seams all endanger his life. Each step he takes could be his last!

Capturing the classic horror moments of video games that we all know and love, FIRST ENCOUNTER takes us through long hallways, tight corridors, pits the hero against hideous HYBRID monsters, serves as an unknowing pawn to an overlord presence that only wishes to manipulate the character into his own destruction, and audiologs that let the player in on what terrifying things have happened before. And might happen again.

Thank you Looking Glass Studios for making one of the most terrifying games I've ever played, and inspiring me to make one of the most interesting and exciting movies I've ever worked on!

Special thanks go out to Neutralx2 on Gametrailers for inspiring the project, Looking Glass Studios for making the game and the many sound effects utilized for horrifying and nostalgic effect, and Salisbury University for accommodating all us youthful film makers who are reaching for the big time in the Future Film Makers Club!

ENJOY. This movie is best watched very quietly in the dark.

Still love it. wish I could play the game better though. Dan should just wear the hybrid costume in his apartment and scare the ghost!

I am currently playing this game and I seriously tink its the best game ever made. It has so much depth and choice and atmosphere - I now know why people put this above bioshock. An incredible piece of work
