(I'd love to know if anyone ran that movie straight out as an adventure, it seems like it'd be pretty easy.)As for the adventure itself, well that might be anything of course.  But since I haven't promoted my favorite adventure of all time in almost a week.  I'd go with a self-suped up version of Castle Amber.Of course if the love interest thing doesn't take, or for whatever reason she's a difficult NPC to play, well it's all shot to ship^Ht, so to speak.</blockquote>
