Doom: Annihilation 2019 Screenplay and direction by Tony Giglio. I watched this on Amazon Prime.
A team of scientists on Probos has accessed an ancient alien transporter. The gate allows instantaneous travel to the other known gate on Earth. The first traveler goes to Probos, goes nuts, they loose contact with the base. A team of space marines are sent to Probos where they find that the staff are infected and have changed to zombies. They also encounter some murderous aliens. Most everyone dies before the last marine and the head doctor battle it out. All that's played out with a ticking time bomb in the back ground, it's only 90 mins until the reactor explodes.
Sadly it's a rather below average. It gets a 3.8 on the IMDb and I can't argue. I wouldn't need to see it again.
Infini 2015 Story by Shane Abbess and Brian Cachia, screenplay and direction by Shane Abbess. An Australian SF film. I saw this listed on Amazon Prime but watched it on YouTube because they have 1.5 speed.
A search and rescue team is transported to mining station Infini to check out what happened to the station. They return all crazy and murderous. A man called Whit had transported separately to the station, he's still there when the second search and rescue team is teleported in. They connect with Whit who tells them about how the station's staff went crazy and began attacking each other. People were killed and their skin removed by the infected. Whit found a hiding place and survived.
The second team gets infected when the last surviving member of the first rescue team attacks them, he gets shot and they get sprayed by the blood. Everyone dies and is later resurrected by an intelligent ooze that came from the planet the station is built on. Whit and the team return to Earth.
It's a bit better than the first movie. I gave this one a 5 and the other a 4. I wouldn't bother with it again, too many other things to watch for the first time.
