Twisted Metal: Black

&nbsp Twisted Metal: Black is a live-action dark comedy/horror/action film by Eli Roth. It centers its plot directly from the original video game "Twisted Metal: Black", released June 19, 2001. Unlike the game, however, the movie is basically more of a storyline than the original game.
