Due next month in theaters and just in time for Halloween, Open Road Films and Lionsgate have revealed the newest poster to Silent Hill: Revelation 3D, featuring the infamous Pyramid Head holding out a huge blade as prisoners in the Otherworld hold out their hands in torment!

Silent Hill: Revelation 3D Update: First official movie image and details released!

It appears that shooting has gone underway for the next Silent Hill movie, Silent Hill: Revelation 3D, and now movie news site Collider has the big scoop and first official image up from the movie, featuring Adelaide Clemens as Heather Mason, the protagonist and star of the Konami survival horror videogame Silent Hill 3, which Revelations is based upon. Kit Harington is also slated to star, but no role has been announced for the Game of Thornes actor yet. Shooting has begun officially March 7 and is currently taking place in Toronto, with Michael J. Bassett directing and writing the film, as well as shooting the entire thing in 3D.

Personally, I was a big fan and supporter of the way the first Silent Hill movie turned out despite its flaws. The movie got the creepiness and vibe from the games right, but it didn't really pull off the full effect of creepiness thanks to the needless addition of the townsfolk that resulted in a lackluster climax and ending. Regardless of all that, Christoph Gans and Roger Avery did an ok job in establishing the proper tone in accordance with the atmosphere seen in the games, and I'm hoping this sequel under the direction of Bassett retains this and does more to accomplish what fans of the franchise and videogames in general are hoping for: a decent and successful videogame movie adaptation. I'm not holding my breath here, but looking at the picture above and comparing it to the Heather Mason I remember from the games, there's a bit of optimism sparking inside of me. We'll just have to wait and see when more details flesh out. For now, read up more info on the movie's plot and details at the source post in Collider.



Silent Hill: Revelation 3D will be released in a date TBA.

Silent Hill: Revelation 3D director talks!

After hearing the news that a new Silent Hill is officially underway and based on the third video game installment's plot, I couldn't be more hopeful to watch another big screen adaptation featuring that haunted little town. Now, the film's new director has opened up and served up his initial reactions a week after the big announcement was made.

Via his own official blog, Silent Hill: Revelation 3D writer and director Michael J. Bassett expresses his own excitement and enthusiasm at being picked to make the next film, citing that he's a fan of the games and enjoyed the last film helmed by Christoph Gans. He also says that he aims to bring a little more darkness and fear into the mix, but try to retain the same feel as the games and hire as much of the previous film's core-creative team as he can. As he puts it off quite well "If it ain't broke, don't fix it". For more on the scoop, visit ComingSoon.net and Michael's official blog!
