The filmmaker thinks this 1986 movie could make a game that would 'kick ass.'
Filmmaker John Carpenter has delivered audiences a number of rich and complex worlds with his movies, some of which have been embraced and expanded into other mediums. While his early feature film Escape from New York was turned into a rudimentary board game, more complex reimaginings of his worlds have been developed as tabletop experiences, while his 1982 film The Thing was turned into a video game in 2002.
Carpenter's Halloween, as well as Big Trouble in Little China and The Thing, have been turned into board games, while Carpenter himself helped develop the upcoming video game Toxic Commando. With his many films touching upon horror, sci-fi, and fantasy, it seems like only a matter of time until a new video game is developed that immerses fans in his worlds.
The new series is described,"John Carpenter's Suburban Screams is a genre-busting unscripted horror anthology series from the mind of legendary director, writer, and producer, John Carpenter. The series explores the dark secrets and unspeakable evil that sometimes lurks beneath the surface of the sun-drenched streets, manicured lawns, and friendly neighbors of suburbia. Each episode focuses on one true tale of terror, told by the real people who lived through it.
