A cross between Blade Runner, V for Vendetta and George Orwell's "1984," Watchmen of Hellgate is an ambitious U.K. 3D project that is currently in early production. The man behind the project is Welsh actor/director Richard Driscoll, whose credits include The Comic, Killer's Kiss, Kannibal and Evil Calls: The Raven. The film is being produced by Driscoll's production company, House of Fear.
While on the surface this seems like a cash in on the popularity of "Watchmen," Driscoll's story is more like "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" in that it is an alternative history where Hitler won the war and features famous characters from other adventure stories(like Captain Nemo) coming together to fight the evil computerized version of Hitler.
Synopsis:
Watchmen Of Hellgate shows the aftermath of a world in which Hitler won the war. The year is 2084, the place is London and a new big brother is watching.

Needless to say, it was a hit at the box office and Kinski deservingly received a Saturn Award for Best Actress.
