MTV reports that Queensryche's 1988 album "Operation: Mindcrime" will be getting the big-screen treatment, according to frontman Geoff Tate.

He said the band has hired a screenwriter to adapt the LP into a feature film, and that they're in the midst of shopping it to Hollywood studios. The band's latest disc, "Operation: Mindcrime II", hit stores this week/

"I worked over the last year and a half with a Hollywood screenwriter named Mark Shepherd. He developed a screenplay out of the story. It's incredible; I hope that it can be made into a movie soon. Our agency is shopping it around Hollywood. I think it's going to be an incredibly powerful film. It starts with one part, and then we have plans for a sequel as well" says Tate.
