What does Willem Dafoe's junk, a talking fox, and a dead child all have in common? Well, they're going to star in a video game adaptation of Lars von Trier's Antichrist courtesy of Morten Iversen, a developer with some serious credentials in the world of game geekery. Formerly of Io Interactive, Iversen now works at von Trier's Zentropa production company.

Russ Frushtick over at MTV Multiplayer tracked down Iversen to ask him what the hell is up with this project, so to speak, and here's what he had to say.

"Von Trier has been extremely fond of video games for ages, and has been an avid player of 'Alone in the Dark,'" explained Iverson. "He's been circulating the idea internally... that making games would be a good idea." He describes it as "a nightmarish version of 'Myst.'"

("Alone in the Dark"? Really? Come on, Lars!)

But apparently Zentropa's game dev people have some rather cool ideas in mind. If dead kids aren't your biggest fear in life, you can tweak your profile to indicate what scares you most and the game will respond in kind. It's no secret that games and movies can and often do go hand in hand. Other brilliant directors like Guillermo del Toro are also interested in taking a crack at the industry. And, because the game will obviously "not [be] available at Wal-Mart," it will probably be available by download. Which means tons of creepy, bloody, icky things! Yay!

Since the game is still in its early phases, you can can tide yourself over with your very own Antichrist tee-shirt from the Zentropa site.
