I've seen illustrations of Heart of Darkness, and Kurtz is drawn to look exactly like Karloff. I didnt know that was based on an actual performance.
There are a lot of books I'd love to see made into movies. Or at least given the proper respect they deserve (good budget, director, etc...). A lot of them end up being made for tv movies or go straight to dvd. Which doesnt mean they're terrible, but they were probably done on the cheap and pumped out fast. The biggest perpetrator being Serial Killer books. Zodiac and Monster are really incredible movies, and there are more interesting serial killers to make a movie about.
