BloodRayne movie deal announced

Majesco has today announced that its vampiric third-person action game BloodRayne is the latest to be signed by German movie production company Boll KG. The company has already finished filming a House of the Dead movie and is currently wrapping up production on a movie adaptation of Atari's Alone in the Dark.

"BloodRayne is one of the select interactive entertainment franchises that transcends the video game genre and appeals to mainstream entertainment audiences," said Jesse Sutton, president of Majesco. "With its unique blend of action, horror, and sex appeal, BloodRayne contains major crossover potential, and we are continuing to explore additional licensing opportunities."

Executive producer and director Uwe Boll hopes to begin filming BloodRayne sometime next year and estimates a budget of around $30 million for the movie. For more information on the BloodRayne game, check out our full review.
