John Carpenter Teases PRINCE OF DARKNESS Series on Shudder

It looks like John Carpenter is working with Shudder on a TV series based on his semi-hit flick Prince of Darkness starring Donald Pleasence and Alice Cooper.

Carpenter teased the announcement over at Consequence of Sound telling them:

“We’re talking to them about doing a theme. And maybe doing a show for them. What would you think about Prince of Darkness as a TV show?”

I guess Carpenter realized he might be getting ahead of himself as he then added, “Well, maybe. Maybe not. I don’t know. I’m not going to tell you. I’m not going to tell you.”

Synopsis:

Poking around in a church cellar, a priest (Donald Pleasence) finds an otherworldly vial filled with slime. Frightened, he brings his discovery to a circle of top scholars and scientists, who eventually learn that the strange liquid is the essence of Satan. The slime then begins to seep out, turning some of the academics into zombified killers. As the possessed battle the survivors, student Kelly (Susan Blanchard) is infected by a large quantity of the liquid and becomes Satan personified.
