| Dead Space movie might actually be happening |
"Playing that game was one of the scariest gaming experiences I've had in my entire life," he told MTV during an interview on the Number Four set. "So I think the nuances of that and trying to capture that in the movie [are intriguing]."
A Dead Space movie is far from a sure thing, although Caruso is hot to get the project started. "The cool thing about Dead Space is we've had a few offers to set it up. Once I started [I Am Number Four] and [producer] Wyck Godfrey and all those other guys got really busy on the Twilight movies because they're kicking butt over there, so we're gonna get back and talk about it [once everyone's time frees up]."
"We've got a really good sort of storyline," he said. "It's almost a prequel, sort of, to where the game picks up." If so, it probably won't incorporate much of the recent prequel novel Dead Space: Martyr, which is set significantly before the events of the first game.
Caruso said that the movie doesn't have a script yet, although he's been talking to writers about the particular challenges the potential movie presents. "It's one of those things where the storytelling of it and trying to get into the prequel [is a challenge]," he said. "You have have the whole sort of brainwash-y/Scientology thing and ultimately the Necromorphs. It's interesting to try to get the major studios to understand that this [isn't Event Horizon.] So you've got to sort of steer their brain out of that. So we're fighting some of those elements. ... I'm still looking forward to getting going."
