The original Silent Hill movie, released in 2006, did well enough to warrant a sequel. That sequel however, is experiencing enough problems in pre-production that producer Don Carmody has stated that the film has “stalled.”
Last year though, Silent Hill 2 screenwriter and director Roger Avary was convicted of vehicular manslaughter.
"The original plan was Roger writing and polishing the screenplay, and when he had finished his thing, we’d begin full-blown production,” he told horror magazine Fangoria. "I’m not sure what’s going on with that. We know we want to make Silent Hill 2 and have a basic outline for it. We’ll have to see."
Avary was afforded the opportunity to a work furlough in 2009, allowing him to direct during the day and stay at a prison-like facility at night. Unfortunately, Avary developed an addiction to twitter. Prison officials found out that he was tweeting about life in jail, and he was subsequently moved to a full-time prison to serve out the remainder of his sentence due to a violation in work release rules.

I want the Bioshock movie. Not yet another horror movie. Bioshock's underwater bio-enhanced objectivist dystopia is much more interesting.

The first Silent Hill movie was one of the best most faithfully recreated video game movies ever made. I hope the second one eventually gets completed.

I would like to see this movie but BioShock done by Ridly Scott could be the Blade Runner of our time!!
