Looks like the strange but oddly funny videogame Destroy all Humans is set to make an appearance on the big and small screens. From Reuters through Coming Soon:
…video game maker THQ Inc. has hired United Talent Agency Inc. to spearhead its effort to make a movie based on its recently released Destroy All Humans! title.
In the game, which is rated “T” (Teen 13+), players use destructive weapons and innate mental powers to take on the most feared enemy in the galaxy – Mankind! Gamers control Crypto, an alien warrior sent to Earth to clear the way for the Furon invasion force.
The player’s mission is to infiltrate humanity, control them, harvest their brain stems and ultimately destroy them.
I’ve not played the game but I’ve seen trailers and it does look like a lot of fun, and it has the potential for a sort of comedy version of The Invaders or similar shows. Although just another slew in the recent videogame adaptations, I think this has potential to be slightly different in the humour angle. Who’s played it? Will it work?
