looking for the name of a game.

hi, I'm looking for a game that I used to play when I was young id love to see it again but I only vaguely remember it so I will do my best to describe the game as much as I can.

from what I can remember it was a 3rd person vehicle action game, it had quake era graphics (I think newer though) and had some strange visuals that could be described as surreal. the vehicle you control is a small black spaceship looking thing with 2(?) blue rocket thrusters on the back (note: its incapable of flight).

the only level I remember (aside from one demo level that played from the menu that looked like a nukage facility and the common bear monsters where wearing radiation suits, there even was green nukage!) was a large blue blackish area (the ground was completely flat) with different fenced off areas, in each area there was a big monster they where unusual creatures distorted forms of thing you would encounter at a fair park, ferry wheels with creepy heads on em instead of carts (they would throw white pear shaped projectiles at you), ghostly pale stilt walkers etc.

the common if not the only other enemies (aside form the aforementioned mini boss monsters) encountered where either scuffed up teddy bears (with red eyes and would claw at you, they also wore red jackets). or sea-container esque spider monsters with antennas with red eyes on em. they would pick up your power-ups and would drop them when killed.

game over cut-scenes where rather morbid (they where pre-rendered videos btw) the only one I remember was when a black car rides down the road to bring you in a hospital (the entire hospital part is in first person mind you). as the hospital bed is rushed though the halls eventually it would go through a door where the ceiling and walls where icky green and nasty looking. eventually we are treated to a shot where a weird orb lowers from the ceiling then it splits open revealing two red spikes and then proceeds to stab you in the eyes and then the cut-scene is over. the game also had pretty sweet music I think it was cd music because I know the game came on a cd.

before you tell me to check out mobygames database first, I already did that I looked for months and I'm kinda desperate now, I'll try to update the OP when I can describe it further. (maybe I could make some drawings of what I remember, for example of what the enemys looked like)
