Hollywood's next victim: Clock Tower


If you're still trying to get that Silent Hill taste out of your mouth (tastes sort of like a lead paint sandwich with a nice, tall glass of gore, in case you were wonderin'), then Hollywood's latest property oughta provide additional sustenance. Because Alone in the Dark wasn't an obscure enough game to base a movie on, Chilean director Jorge Olguin has just been tapped to helm the adaptation of Capcom's creepy (and popular in Japan) survival horror title, Clock Tower.

Variety reveals, "Penned by Jake Wade Wall (When a Stranger Calls), pic concerns a young woman who receives a disturbing phone call from her estranged mother warning her not to come home. When she investigates, she uncovers a terrible supernatural truth from her past." This sounds an awful lot like the plot for Clock Tower 3. It all makes sense now: teenage girl, spooky house, Scissorman ... hopefully the combination of an acclaimed director and a well received plot can deliver gamers a worthy film.
