Roger Avary and Samuel Hadida of Davis Films are climbing back up "Silent Hill."
The screenwriter and producer have signed on for a sequel to their 2006 video game adaptation.
The original, based on the Konami game, centered on a woman who travels to a desolate town to seek help for her ailing daughter only to find supernatural occurrences taking place there.
Davis Films aims to shoot the movie next year after "Resident Evil 4," which it's now prepping.
TriStar released the original "Silent Hill," which earned $47 million domestically; the label has not confirmed involvement on the follow-up.
Avary, best known for his work on Quentin Tarantino scripts such as "Pulp Fiction," also is penning video game adaptation "Return to Castle Wolfenstein" for Davis Films.
The deal is one of several projects for Hadida's company. The French-based banner has come to Toronto with two projects -- Michael Bassett's "Solomon Kane" and the Terry Gilliam-helmed "The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus."

Wenn man sich da aktuell den Schnittbericht zum Spiel auf schnittberichte.com anschaut, frag ich mich schon, ob sie dann im Film auch alle NS Symbole rausmachen

Michael J. Bassett macht den Regiemann

Da Avary ja im Knast sitzt, sieht es mit einem Skript von ihm wohl eher schlecht aus...

Wieso? Mehr Zeit als dort, wird er nie wieder haben

Oh, hatte ich gar nicht mitbekommen. Na dann...

Fresh off their $270M+ box office sensation Resident Evil: Afterlife 3D, producers Samuel Hadida and Don Carmody have re-teamed to create Silent Hill: Revelation 3D, which is currently in pre-production. Silent Hill: Revelation 3D will also reunite Davis Films producer Hadida with Michael J. Bassett (Deathwatch, Solomon Kane), who will direct the 3D film on location this winter in the Toronto area. International sales are being handled by Lionsgate at the upcoming AFM.

Silent Hill: Revelation 3D, based on the acclaimed survival horror videogame franchise by KONAMI , is a sequel to Hadida and Carmody’s earlier collaboration, Christophe Gans’ Silent Hill. For years, Heather Mason and her father have been on the run, always one step ahead of dangerous forces that she doesn’t fully understand. Now on the eve of her 18th birthday, plagued by terrifying nightmares and the disappearance of her father, Heather discovers she's not who she thinks she is. The revelation leads her deeper into a demonic world that threatens to trap her in Silent Hill forever.

Hadida said: “We have high expectations for this continuation of the franchise with our reunited Silent Hill production team. Michael was our natural choice to write and direct. He understands the genre, is passionate about the Silent Hill franchise, and will bring his considerable action picture skills to a fresh and thrilling insight of the Silent Hill 3D world.”

Hadida noted further, “We are especially excited about our renewed collaboration with KONAMI. KONAMI’S sustained success with the seven video games published to date is unique testament to the ongoing appeal of this property”.

Carmody added: “Resident Evil: Afterlife 3D, Paranormal Activity 2, and Saw 3D show that global audiences have a continued thirst for the horror action genre. Silent Hill, like Resident Evil before it, is a beloved videogame, now becomes a successful film franchise that both encompasses and transcends the game world.”

“We are pleased to partner with Samuel and Don again to bring a new Silent Hill experience to the silver screen.” Said Careen Yapp, Vice President of KONAMI . Just as the franchise has evolved, we’re confident Silent Hill Revelation 3D will bring a new Silent Hill story that is both frightening and engaging. Their sensitivity to our loyal, avid, global community of fans will make for an amazing 3D experience!”

Zumindest die Frisur hat Ähnlichkeit mit der SH3-Heather. Mal schaun, ob die auch die verstörenden U-Bahn-Locations reinbringen... und vor allem das Jahrmarktsetting, obwohl es da interessant zu sehen sein dürfte, ob die sich da nicht vielleicht in Klischees verlieren. Gruselige Jahrmärkte sind ja dann doch schon recht ausgelutscht.

Mitchell, Bean und Unger sind wieder mit von der Partie.

Carrie-Anne Moss und Malcolm McDowell spielen ebenfalls mit...

Sieht konventioneller als der erste Teil aus - aber dennoch recht cool. ;)

Würde ich so unterschreiben. Mich interessiert das Universum ja eh viel zu sehr, als dass ich mich nicht dafür begeistern könnte, und handwerklich ist das auch alles sehr gut umgesetzt, wie es scheint, aber wenn der Film von der Erzählstruktur her so ist wie der Trailer, dann wird's seeeehr konventionell...
freu mich trotzdem drauf.

Dem Bob gefällt es außerordentlich gut =)

Voll gähnig ...
