Inanimate Insanity: Darkness and Downfall

Inanimate Insanity: Darkness and Downfall is a 2023 animated film. It is a fan film of the web series Inanimate Insanity. The movie will be darker than the series and is intended for more mature audiences.

Summary
This film is set 2 years after the events of Inanimate Insanity II's finale. Despite the fact the show had already ended by then, some problems that had occured in it had still not been solved (such as the conflict between Balloon, Suitcase, and Nickel). Yin and Yang are separated, and Yang runs off to cause unstoppable destruction. Steve Cobs then discovers something that could possibly lead to him becoming omnipotent.

Meanwhile, an unknown individual who (is a Meeple product, but is not a MePhone) was once thought to be dead is found alive by Fan. She is a hostile being who is living in hiding and wants to avenge the death of her friend, MePhone 3GS.

An evil spirit is also lurking in the island, planning to make everyone's lives a living hell. They start out by disabling MeLife and possessing some of the former contestants so they start growing violent towards each other. And there are some small implications that Yang may be in cahoots with them.

(This part of the plot will only happen if Taco doesn't redeem herself by the time II2 ends. If she does redeem herself, then this part will be scrapped) Taco has also been seeking forgiveness from the former Season 1 contestants, feeling remorse for what she did. However, she feels as if they never will, so she plans to do something that will prove that she's changed for the better.

Plot
(Will not be written until the Inanimate Insanity series finale is released)

Cast
'''NOTE: VOICE ACTORS ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE, BECAUSE THERE IS A CHANCE THEY MAY NOT WANT TO REPRISE THEIR ROLES IN THE MOVIE. And that's OK if they don't want to.'''

Taylor Grodin as OJ: One of the main protagonist of the film. The winner of the first season of Inanimate Insanity, a former male contestant, and the owner of a hotel known as "Hotel OJ". He is known as "the normal guy". Best friends with Paper. Before the events of the film, he, along with the other former Season 1 contestants whom didn't return for Season 2 all seem to have forgiven Balloon for his actions in Season 1, as they all don't have a conflict with him in the film. He has aquaphobia (fear of water).

Mark Katz (and Christian Potenza, using archive recordings) as MePhone 4: One of the main protagonists of the film. The former host of Inanimate Insanity. He was originally the host of a game show similar to Total Drama Island and Battle For Dream Island, known as Inanimate Insanity. He appears nice to many others. He has the ability to bring back any contestants that have died at will (except Bow and Dough). He seems to have an eating disorder, as he would frequently eat the cookies that were supposed to be given out as prizes. He also has an ambiguous mental disorder, possibly depression or PTSD, due to how Steve Cobs treated him.

Adam Katz as Baseball: A former male contestant of Inanimate Insanity, and the former leader of The Grand Slams. He was in an alliance with his best friend Nickel, and one of his former rivals Suitcase. He has a courageous and trustworthy personality, and cares about his former alliance members, he even cares about Suitcase despite the fact that she was his rival after Nickel's elimination, which means he may have made up with her before the events of the film. He hates being called "fat", and often responds to it by punting the offender into the distance.

Adam Katz as Nickel: A former male contestant of Inanimate Insanity. He is often sarcastic, and used to be in an alliance with his best friend Baseball and rival Suitcase. He still dislikes Suitcase and Balloon, but he doesn't act as rude to them in the film like he did in the series. He and Baseball are often seen together, as they are friends.
