4. Twisted Metal
A car combat video game may not sound like the best thing to make into a movie, but that’s never solely been what “Twisted Metal” is about. With a demonic serial killer named Sweet Tooth being the series’ icon since the beginning, “Twisted Metal” has always had a sick, twisted (see what I did there?) sense of humor about it, coming straight from the mind of creator David Jaffe. The 2012 reboot of the franchise to the Playstation 3 would likely serve as the best narrative choice if “Twisted Metal” were to become a film, as the story centers around a group of murderous psychopaths fighting their way through a bloodbath car combat tournament to appease the mysterious Calypso, who promises one wish granted to the champion.
