July 1, 2004 Aleister Arcane: According to Variety, Paramount Pictures has scared up Aleister Arcane, purchasing feature rights to Steve Niles’ horror comicbook and setting up the project with Michael Aguilar and Dean Georgaris to produce at their Penn Station shingle.
Studio has tapped the scripting team of Dan Milano and Matthew Huffman to adapt the tale of local TV horror host Aleister Arcane, who’s forced off the air due to the wishes of parents in an Oklahoma community. In the wake of Arcane’s unplanned retirement, unexplained terror and horror beset the town.
