Line 1: {{work}} * [[Anticlimax Boss]]: Mother in ''Overkill'', aside from [[Goddamned Bats\|the last phase]]. Probably deliberate, judging by the cutscene before the fight. ~~=== The games ===~~ * {{spoiler\|[[Anticlimax Boss]]: Mother is implied to be one}}. * [[Awesome Music]]: ** The Magician and Emperor's boss themes. Line 30 ⟶ 29: * [[That One Boss]]: Magician, Wheel Of Fate, The Fool, The Emperor, The Star, The World, the list goes on and on, really... It should be noted that in ''The House of the Dead 3III'', each bullet a boss takes will empty more of its yellow [[Break Meter]] every time it succeeds in attacking you; a boss has its maximum "stamina" level at the start of the fight. [[Fake Difficulty\|The Fool's stamina is initially -just barely- low enough to where it is possible to halt it the first time if every shot is accurate, done as fast as possible, and you begin with a fully loaded shotgun]]. As such, The Fool ends more games (or causes more continues) than even the final boss. Fixed in the console versions though. * [[They Just Didn't Care]]: Sega's downloading service has a bit of a [https://web.archive.org/web/20120523071145/http://www.sonicretro.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/segaDigital01.jpg typo for ''The House of the Dead 2''], saying it's rated EC (Early Childhood). ~~=== The films ===~~ * [[Special Effects Failure]]: Some shots of the protagonists shooting at zombies in the first film were from ''the original game, with an "Insert Coin" message blinking on the screen!'' * [[They Just Didn't Care]]: Nowhere does it become more apparent than in the "Funny Version" of the first film, where we see endless scenes of everyone involved in the production screwing around. * [[Video Game Movies Suck]]: First film has the dishonor of being the first game series [[Uwe Boll]] got to butcher. ** With a plot involving teenagers going to a rave, in-game footage used as part of the movie, and only a brief cameo of the games' characters at the end, [[Fanon Discontinuity\|let's just say that movie never existed]]. Though, it's just bad enough to be great [[Alternate DVD Commentary\|riff]] material. * [[What an Idiot!]]: The second film, despite being slightly better, isn't without its faults. Who keeps something important, like, say, a vital cure sample, on the ''back of their belt? Where it can easily get ripped off?'' ** Better one. Why only take one sample in the first place? Especially since the place is going to get bombed soon enough. {{reflist}}
