Much better chance for it (pun intended) would have - It - unforgettable horror with Tim Curry molesting group of kids/adults. Both Tim Curry and Toonstruck are responsible for my coulrophobia. The reason why i think it would make a good adventure game is, beside the fact that Tim Curry is involved , is that the film itself plays kinda adventurous, something like a dark version of The Goonies.


Anyway, there're many adventure games out there not based on King's work but they could easily be - Phantasmagoria, beside a little bit of Edgar Allan Poe-esque feel to it, brings The Shining to mind as well.
Aahhh, Tim Curry.

Now that that's out, I'll just say I agree with this.
