Curry Barker, famous for his hit horror movie Obsession, is keen on bringing his terrifying tastes to the world of Indiana Jones if the opportunity ever arises.

Barker shared his vision for an especially grisly take on Indy’s adventures during a conversation with Gold Derby after the outlet brought up similar remarks made by Cooper Tomlinson, Barker’s longtime collaborator who co-wrote, produced, and starred in Obsession as Ian, Bear’s best friend.

"I would want to do a really f**ked up, rated-R version of [Indiana Jones],” Barker said. “I want to do a crazy adventure movie. That's something that Cooper and I have talked about, because we feel like we've never seen something like that; we've only ever seen the family-friendly version.

“But what happens if two regular guys, or one regular guy, goes on a journey that turns crazy? Literally pushing the boundaries of that genre would be fun for me."

As previously mentioned, Tomlinson feels a similar way, hoping to bring back the action-adventure films that defined cinema through the '80s and '90s.

"I'd love to bring back the adventure epic like Raiders of the Lost Ark ," he told the outlet. "What really worked with Obsession was making something that was honest and grounded in reality; obviously we can all suspend disbelief and enjoy all the crazy action stuff that isn't real. But when it comes to the characters and story, it should be more grounded and honest.
