Berkeley, California
Map E1M1
No one is at the PC yet you see it select Ultra-Violence and then the game
starts (E1M1), yet it was suppose to be a demo (Doom movies)

Grosse Pointe Blank (film)
21 and 42 min into the film
ULTIMART CONVENIENCE
Map Map30 Map07 Map01 and possibly one other
Each time we see the game it usually switches to a different level, we first see Map30, of the ones other listed. Every so often we see the god cheat and the give all cheat on, which I think would be unlikely for an Arcade game.

The movie 'Virtuosity' has a scene in it wherein the arch-villian(which is a
Psychotic andriod) takes over a popular TV show that is always live. He
calls it Death-TV. The background music for this scene is an orchestrated
version of the level music from E2M6 of Ultimate DooM.
As far as I know the movie was released after DooM, but I'm not completely
certain.

The other movie is one of those useless Disney originals, called P.U.N.K.S.
Anyway one if the kids fathers' works at a computer lab and they visit him
at work. I don't think they show the monitor at all but the sound-effects
are unmistakeable.

Here's one from another movie. I think the title is "breakdown" (it is), but i know
that it stars Kurt Russel and the plot has to do with him and his wife
getting stranded on the road, the wife going to get help (don't ask), and her
not coming back. Towards the end of the movie he finally makes it into the
house where his wife is being held and hears these "gunshots" he goes to
where he heard the noise come from and we see that theres a TV or monitor
running "DooM". the shot wasnt that long to make out what version it was,
but i know that the weapon being used was a plasma rifle and the gunshots
coming from it were NOT the sounds that go with it.

In Monty Python's Meaning Of Life, there is a scene with many Doom
sounds:
The doors are Doom doors, and when the religious figures attack you,
your character makes the Doom grunting sound.
by Criswell The Psychic Weatherman
In the Truman show, when he drives over the bridge and fires egnite on the road it plays a sound like the one in Doom 2 Level30 when the Boss shoots those spawn boxes out of his head.
In the film 'Dead Man' where Nobody is having a very romantic moment before William Blake sees, it sounds like shot gun guys dying.
TV shows
In the tv show 'Captain Planet' when they camels they have the same sounds as the imp.
In the tv show 'the X-Files' in an episode about VR there are sounds from the Bosses spawning cubes in Doom2 .
In a promo for 'Austar' pay tv it has a sample from a door opening in Doom.
I found more imp sound in the Wild Thornberries, it was used for a rhinocerous.

I'm not sure if it's been mentioned to you before, but there's an old episode
of "E.R." that contains a whole lot of DOOM. Actually, I believe it's that
famous episode where George Clooney's character saves that kid from a drainage
pipe during a severe thunderstorm(don't know for sure). Anyways, in the
episode, the staff at the front desk had just upgraded all the computers on
their network and one of the employees brings in a copy of DOOM. A couple
characters in the show get hooked on the game and play for hours-- there's one
scene where you see virtually half the cast huddled around the screen. I don't
have any stills from the show, but I'm sure NBC will make a big deal of showing
the episode again when they experience a ratings slump(like they did earlier
this year).

There was an episode of FRIENDS on WGN where
Chandellor buys a new laptop computer. All he can
think about is playings games. Ross asks him to type
a list of likes/dislikes about Rachel. When
Chandellor gets done typing, he asks, "You guys wanna
play Doom"?
by Shaun Elias
Music
In the song 'Where boys fear to tread' by the Smashing Pumpkins there is a sample of an explosion from Doom.

Doom (Human): Long after everyone else on Phobos was dead, he kept fighting, determined to send out a warning to Earth before the demons could claim him.
|
Crash (Human): Once, she was Doom's military instructor. Now the Arena Eternal tests Crash's mettle to the extreme-extreme patience, that is. She is the trainer who introduces new warriors to the skills of battle. |
Phobos (Human): An experienced veteran, he led the invasion of the demon-haunted tunnels of Phobos. There, he was betrayed by superiors who thought they could learn more from watching him die than by studying his reports.

in Duke Nukem 3D the chapel in E1L3, "use" the ugly picture at the
base of the altar, then break the left colored glass.
