"Revenge of the Killer Doors"

Killer Doors are a common feature present in both Blood and Blood II: The Chosen, as well as in Shogo: Mobile Armour Division, wherein the player can be killed through a closing door by being squished. Although this concept dates to the crushing roof and floor sectors present in Doom, the implementation in Blood was ratcheted up to an over the top extreme, based on the new types of doors seen in the Build engine, including sideways and especially sliding out. Intentional or not, it has become a staple feature of the series, and a subject of at least one parody map (spun off from Bloody Pulp Fiction by Ryan "Wangho" Williams), with another explicitly avoiding this from happening.
