Silent Hill Movie
Another video game on its way to the cinema
According to a report on the amusingly named horror movie fan site Bloody-Disgusting.com, New Line Cinema have green lit a movie adaptation of the chilling horror game series Silent Hill. "We know what fans you all are of this game and we know it is crucial that we get it right, and that is what we intend to do", production company Dark Aura Entertainment are quoted as saying. "We believe that this will be a revolutionary film for two genres - the film based on video games and more importantly the modern horror film." At least in this case they have a decent foundation to work from; last year's PlayStation 2 release Silent Hill 2 was one of the scariest games in living memory, and sported a solid storyline and involving characters to boot. A far cry from some of the plot-free pap that is being turned into films these days - Crazy Taxi, anyone? Further details are scant at this early stage, but no doubt we'll hear more once it goes into full production. Related Feature - Silent Hill 2 review
