Clock Tower is the next game-to-film adaptation

According to
Dark Horizons (via
Variety), Jason X
scribe Todd Farmer is set to adapt Capcom's Clock Tower 3 into a movie. This will be one of the first projects by the Mayhem Project, a production company that launched in June and his headed up by Anthony Moswai, who had a hand in the Lara Croft movies. The film's budget is expected to run between $10 million and $30 million and will begin production in 2006.

The Clock Tower series began on the PlayStation One around the time of the original Resident Evil, and featured a very disturbing villain with an unusually large pair of scissors. Clock Tower 3 centers around a girl, Alyssa, who returns home on her 15th birthday to find herself caught in a plot most sinister. The game garnered
decent reviews, though most praised the game for its story (which is a good sign for the film's future).
