   The Running Man (based on Stephen King novel from '86) is     
   getting a new film treatement coming out in November.  Looks     
   good. The novel is being released with a movie tie-in cover.   
      
   "Ben Richards has no job, no money, and a young daughter who     
   urgently needs medical attention. Desperate, out of options, he     
   signs up for The Running Man, "the biggest show in the     
   country." It's an ultraviolent competition where the stakes     
   could not be higher. Ben must stay alive for thirty days while     
   an elite strike force, trained to kill, hunts for him. If he     
   can survive for a month, he wins a billion dollars. No     
   contestant has ever lasted longer than eight days. Can Ben     
   Richards win this ultimate game of life and death?"   
      
   The '87 movie starring Arnold Scharsenegger supposedly takes     
   place in 2017.  Arnold uses the line "I'll be back" in that     
   one.
