the explosion and Alicia gets into a sword fight with him. Castillo impales her heart, and Rudy manages to decapitate him soon after. However, the still-alive headless body of Castillo begins to strangle Rudy. Alicia, who is barely alive, gets up and crushes the head under her foot, which finally kills him. Although Alicia seemingly dies, she and Rudy are rescued by a team of agents. The agents ask for Rudy's name, to which he responds with "Rudolph Curien" (implying this film is a prequel to The House of the Dead arcade game). The ending narration reveals that Rudy gave Alicia the immortality serum. The two survivors return home.

Production A House of the Dead film had first been in development in 1998 at DreamWorks Pictures, with Jesse Dylan directing and Mark Verheiden writing the screenplay. The story would've been a loose adaptation, in which a group of zombies are the most popular kids in college and a group of nerds must defeat them. In May 2002, it was announced filming began on an adaptation of House of the Dead from a script by Dave Parker and Mark A. Altman. Representatives from Sega shot alongside the production to secure images, motion capture, and gather other materials for The House of the Dead 4. Music Soundtrack The film's soundtrack was released in late 2003 through ZYX Records. The album featured many bands from Boll's home country of Germany. Track listing Music video A music video for the song "This Is Real" by Swiss pop singer Rey Thomas was also released as part of the publicity campaign. The clip
