As pre-production on a sequel to 2006's Silent Hill movie plods along, a few new details are being offered up as to the direction the film is going to take, courtesy of producer Don Carmody. For...
The Silent Hill movie tends to pop up on occasion when discussions about good videogame movies happen. The only problem with that is, when compared to everything else in the medium, even the best films based on games tend to be merely decent at best. So no, I'm not some proponent of the Silent Hill flick. But if it makes you feel better, you can pretend that I am, I guess. As for the impending sequel,...
Silent Hill special makeup effects designer Paul Jones gave ShockTillYouDrop.com an update about the sequel today on the Toronto set for Resident Evil: Afterlife . "I was working on storyboards for that around the same time last year," Jones revealed. "It's going to be pretty crazy. There's a lot of cool stuff in there. Roger (Avary) has some awesome ideas and hopefully we're going to...
By Simon Abrams I'm not entirely sure that it's possible to make a successful film adaptation of the fiction of H.P. Lovecraft. His florid writing style does everything it can to prevent the reader from being able to visualize what's going on, which is a good part of the fun that any adaptation, film or otherwise, usually willfully ignores.

Somehow we missed this news from a few days back, but I wanted to write about it anyway. THR confirmed that screenwriter Roger Avary and producer Samuel Hadida of Davis Films would both be returning for the next Silent Hill sequel. I'm not sure if this is good news or bad. They trades are trying to play it off as good news, but will Avary actually write a script that doesn't suck this time? Or do they...

Silent Hill lives again, with writer Roger Avary and producer Samuel Hadida set to return to the property that earned about $50 million back in 2006. Earlier this year, Radha Mitchell, who starred in the earlier video game adaptation, insisted that director Christophe Gans should come back if a sequel ever happened. There's no word yet on any more specifics, but Hadida's company, Davis-Films, is firmly...
Since the first SILENT HILL came out Roger Avary has been saying he had no interest in returning to write a sequel unless director Christophe Gans were returning. Trouble is Christophe Gans has no interest in returning. But somewhere along the way Avary must've changed his tune as today we get word that he has officially signed on to write SILENT HILL 2. So how'd they get him to return? While it wasn't...
I'm really surprised by this news, but it's here none the less. Silent Hill is getting a sequel to the 2006 film which Roger Avary wrote and Christophe Gans directed. What's more is that Avary is returning to the sequel along with the producer Samuel Hadida. The original Silent Hill followed a mother who was concerned for her daughter who had begun exhibiting strange behaviour, sleepwalking and repeating...
Tuesday I gave you a brief rundown of everything Silent Hill. The games, it goes without saying, should be experienced by anyone who has ever been a fan of the horror genre. On the other hand, there is also a film version out there, and we all know what usually happens when video games are [...]
