In this article we’ll take a look at five upcoming game-to-movie-adaptations you could (or could not) look forward to in 2007.

Upcoming Movies Inspired by Games


Clock Tower

Release Date: 2007
If Resident Evil couldn’t satiate those psychological horror pangs, the movie adaptation of Capcom’s survival horror game may just do the trick. Clock Tower will unfold around a young woman called Alyssa Hamilton who receives a call from her mom warning her not to come home. She obviously doesn’t listen and not only will she end up getting a creepy homecoming, but she’ll have to ‘save tortured souls in order to end the brutal crusade of the Evil Servants’, and she has to do all this before the clock strikes midnight.



Dead or Alive

Release Date: 20th October 2006
Based on Tecmo’s/Team Ninja’s brawler of the same name, Dead or Alive, the movie will transport viewers to a mysterious island where you have hot women beating the crap out of each other in a DOA tournament. Now this movie is definitely not going to win any Oscars but the sheer cheese factor is so high, you will kick yourself if you miss it. Oh! and it has hot women in bikinis…



Driver

Release Date: 2007
Roger Avery, the man behind the recent scare-fest Silent Hill will be bringing Atari’s long-running franchise, Driver to the big screen. Details regarding this project are wafer thin as of now, but we do that Paul Anderson (Resident Evil, Mortal Kombat) will be producing the movie and here’s a short synopsis, courtesy imdb.com:
An undercover cop named Tanner posing as a getaway driver risks his life in order to infiltrate a crime ring based in four of America's biggest cities.
