"Slipknot drummer Clown will direct a movie adaptation of Officer Downe. Shawn &amp;#039;Clown&amp;#039; Crahan has signed on for the film based on Joe Casey and Chris Burnham&amp;#039;s Image Comics series, reports Deadline.  The prolific G\u00C3\u00B8dland writer and Batman Incorporated artist&amp;#039;s series centres around a cop who is killed in the line of duty. Resurrected time and again by telekinesis, Officer Downe becomes the violent and slightly deranged secret weapon of the LAPD. Crahan has developed numerous videos for his metal band Slipknot.  Skip Williamson (Underworld) and director Mark Neveldine (Ghost Rider: Spirit Of Vengeance) will produce alongside Casey and his Man of Action partners.
