Chilean helmer Jorge Olguin is set to direct Mayhem Project's horror pic "Clock Tower," based on the Japanese video game franchise says Variety.

Penned by Jake Wade Wall ("When a Stranger Calls"), pic concerns a young woman who receives a disturbing phone call from her estranged mother warning her not to come home. When she investigates, she uncovers a terrible supernatural truth from her past.

Launched in 1995 by Japanese studio Human Entertainment, the franchise has spawned three games, the last of which will be used as the basis for the film's plot. Production is slated to begin this fall.
