The Director Of MODERN WARFARE 2 Eases On Down FROST ROAD!!

Merrick here...
Keith Arem, who "directed" the recently released CALL OF DUTY game MODERN WARFARE 2, will make his feature film debut with a multi-platform endeavor called FROST ROAD.

Project revolves around a young man who awakens from a car accident to discover he is one of few survivors in the aftermath of a mysterious outbreak that's struck a small coast town on the East Coast. Somehow immune to the contagion, he tries to save the remaining survivors as he struggles to prevent the deadly wave from spreading across the planet. Arem penned the script for the pic, and is also developing the project as a graphic novel with co-creator Brandon Humphreys, with Christopher Shy illustrating.

...says THIS article in Variety. Given that MODERN WARFARE 2 made something like 100 kazillion-gillion-babillion dollars (actually, Variety says it pulled down $550 million in five days - towards a total of $3 billion since its November 10 release ), Arem's gravitation towards other media isn't altogether surprising. It's a great game which I don't entirely suck at. I appreciate that empowerment, so a tip of the hat to Keith... By the way, if you're thinking of picking up MW2 for Christmas or something, the night vision goggles that come with THE "PRESTIGE" VERSION AVAILABLE HERE actually work pretty well! Their range isn't particularly great, but they're really pretty nice in tighter environs. Hmmm, FROST ROAD. If FURY ROAD actually happens, I wonder if people will confuse it with this?
