Almost all of these feature him screaming in pain, lots of blood, drawn-out violence, and usually decapitation one infamous death scene even has a skull-like parasite strangle his head off and hijack his body into a Necromorph. Isaac can die a huge number of almost comically violent deaths at the hands of Necromorphs, environmental hazards, and even his own weaponry like the flamethrower.

This game is excessively graphic too the primary way of killing the enemies is to dismember them with improvised mining tools that serve as firearms, but something I'm surprised hasn't been mentioned here are the player death scenes that the game became infamous for. If you're going to buy this for your kids, make sure you google the Slasher, Leaper, and Guardian enemies in this game to get some perspective on how bad the Necromorphs can get, because this game WILL scare the daylights out of unprepared youngsters it does it's job well, and it's a very unique, effective horror experience. They come in a wide array of shapes and sizes, but even the smallest, weakest forms of them are disturbing, since they're all created from mutated people or body parts, and this is still evident in their appearance.

Necromorphs are the corpses of the Ishimura's slaughtered crew that have been violently transformed into hideous undead killing machines by an alien parasite, in a very similar manner to the victims in the 'The Thing' movies. Within the first few minutes of gameplay, it goes from 0 to 100 as your small crew is attacked and separated by the antagonists of the game Necromorphs. In Dead Space, you play as engineer Isaac Clarke, who is on a mission to check up on his girlfriend Nicole after a communication blackout aboard a giant mining spaceship named the Ishimura.
