Mindfire Entertainment has announced its plans to turn the popular Eidos video game FEAR EFFECT into a feature film, with director Stanley Tong in talks to helm the action picture, says The Hollywood Reporter.

Mindfire CEO Mark A. Altman ("House of the Dead 2," "DOA: Dead or Alive") is set to produce with Mindfire chairman Mark Gottwald and senior vp business affairs Chuck Speed, based on a screenplay by Steve Kriozere. 

Altman described the movie as "Mission: Impossible" meets "Silent Hill," adding that the film will faithfully follow the story line of the original PlayStation game. It will be set 10 years in the future, however, rather than in the alternate world of the source material.
