The gang at iF Magazine say that Halloween (1978) helmer John Carpenter will direct Scared Straight.The story follows group of juveniles who are trapped inside a prison as part of the "Scared Straight" program when a large-scale riot breaks out, and it is up to inmate Karl Rix to save the kids.
Nicolas Cage will play Rix when shooting begins in the Fall..
As a fan Carpenter's work...I am glad he's back behind the camera rather than just collecting a check for a remake of one of his films done by someone else.
It's just a shame that he is saddled with Cage as his lead-UGH!
