"Tower of Terror" Disneyland ride is a movie again after the Disney TV movie released back in 1997.

"Tower of Terror" Disneyland ride is one of the big tourist attractions in Disneyland California developed around 1994. The ride was also an inspiration for a movie made by Disney TV starring Kirsten Dunst and Steve Guttenberg. Disney is again attempting to make a movie based on the popular ride that translated a theme park into a tourist attraction back in 20th century, according to Screen Crush.

Jim Whitaker is rumoured to be producing the movie along with John August who is still looking for someone to write the screenplay for the "Tower of Terror" Disneyland ride based movie. August is well known for his work in "Charlie's Angels," "Go," Tim Burton's "Big Fish," "Frankenweenie and The Corpse Bride." The movie however will be a freestanding flick and will not be a part of the "Twilight Zone" series.

"The theme park ride combines footage and narration by what sounds like the late Rod Serling doing a Twilight Zone episode, with a jaw-dropping elevator car that falls precipitously, and climbs back up. That classic anthology show isn't part of this; indeed, it's being developed as a freestanding movie at Warner Bros, produced by Appian Way with Joseph Kosinski," noted Deadline.

In the 1997 Disney movie, the ride was a rocket going up several floors before falling down abruptly from the incline. And people entering the elevator would disappear without any trace suggesting the existence of a mysterious supernatural power.

""Tower of Terror" is not the only Disney theme park ride that has been sent screaming toward screens big and small. Aside from the "Pirates Of The Caribbean" film franchise that's working on a fifth installment for a 2017 bow, there was this summer's under-performer ''Tomorrowland and "Jungle Cruise" that now has Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson signed up to star in it, said Deadline.
