The authors of "Saw," "It" and "The Call" will screen Outlast, one of the creepiest video games in the history of the industry
Screen adaptation of another famous game has been announced. This time the cinema screen will try to conquer Outlast.
Here's What We Know
The film company Lionsgate - the author of a series of thrillers "Saw" - announced the cooperation with the studio Red Barrel, which is the creator of one of the most terrible horror in the history of video games - Outlast.
It has been announced that Roy Lee, the producer of such acclaimed horror films as It and The Call, will be working on the adaptation. He is enthusiastic and confident that the combined efforts of Lionsgate and Red Barrel will make a great film.
When Outlast came out in 2012, it changed the world of horror games, setting a new standard for immersion in the genre. The deep story provided the perfect foundation for a film that explores the psychological and physical horrors at the heart of the franchise. I'm excited to be able to bring this unique world to life for both new viewers and loyal fans of the series.
Importantly, J.T. Petty, the screenwriter of all parts of Outlast, is working on the film's story. He intends to provide the audience with a first-class horror.
Red Barrels has been pushing the boundaries of horror games for over a decade, and a film adaptation of the Outlast universe is an incredible opportunity to delve deeper into the characters and killers we love.
A film adaptation of Outlast could be a great film for horror fans, as the game has all the virtues of the genre and is perfectly suited for transferring to the big screens, and the announced crew is unlikely to disappoint audiences.
