A while ago I wrote a treatment for a Twisted Metal movie. It was based on the first entry in the Twisted Metal series of car-based combat video games, and so includes only Roadkill, Outlaw, Mr. Grimm, Yellowjacket, Warthog, Darkside, Crimson Fury, Hammerhead, Spectre, Thumper, Pit Viper and Sweet Tooth. The film is set in 2014 in Los Angeles and would feature crazy car combat scenes and explosions. It would also have a couple of sub-plots, including a terrorist group known as Apocalypse 9, who are angry Calypso's contest is taking the spotlight away from the threats, and the motives behind the drivers.
TWISTED METAL : HIGH OCTANE (2009)
The year is 2014. The place is Los Angeles. Christmas night. 12 drivers have been selected by the mysterious Calypso to compete in the Twisted Metal contest. The rules are simple. Eliminate the competition, literally, using your vehicle-mounted weapons, speed and a bit of crazy, to claim the ultimate prize. One wish, whatever the winner chooses, not limited by size, price or existence. Tonight, the streets will run red and black with blood and oil. Welcome driver, to Twisted Metal!
