There's been a movie and it was actually called 'Stalker' too.

They should not tackle a movie, as it'll never match up to the original movie.

The TV show trailer looks... odd. Not sure if it looks any good based on the trailer alone.  To me, the creepiest part of STALKER is that you're in control of a character all alone in a location that can kill you at any time.  I don't think watching other people doing that would be as exciting or creepy.

As a big fan of the Stalker series I'd like to see where a series can go(if it evens gets going). Seeing as the game is loosely based on a movie that was loosely based on a book and really resemble neither very closely, I wonder what they come up with. Would love to see mainly game-like world, with Tarkovskiy's style from the movie to it.

Wow this does seem interesting. Their is a possibility to make a lot of great things with the world of STALKER. The difficult part will be in doing it right. But already making it a TV show was a better decision then making a movie. Opens up the possibility to make it the right way.
