SPOILER: The new Ultimate Spider-Man... revealed!

Now it totally makes sense why the costume was changed. It truly is A NEW ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN, and those who would avoid Spoilers better do so now. SPOILER MODE IS ON.

Silent Hill 3 will be made into "Silent Hill: Revelation".

Horror site Fangoria and video game blog site Kotaku have posted some interesting news for Silent Hill fans. The next movie adaptation based on the Konami survival horror series has finally been given the green light, and will be based on one of the better entries of the video game series, Silent Hill 3. After four years in development with slow news and updates, the sequel to 2006's Silent Hill will be titled "Silent Hill: Revelation", and will be produced by Lionsgate, Konami, and Davis Films. Michael J. Bassett, whose credentials include Solomon Kane and Deathwatch, will bewriting and directing the film, replacing Christophe Gans and Roger Avery on those roles respectively. The movie will also be apparently shot in 3D, to give viewers a choice between that and conventional theater viewing.

Silent Hill 3 Game Intro

Personally, this is exciting news for me as a Silent Hill fan. The third game had one of the best stories in the series to date. It was a follow up to the original Silent Hill, in which players too control of a teenage girl named Heather, who was eventually revealed to be the daughter of the first game's protagonist, Harry Mason. Here's the official synopsis from Fangoria:

"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," reads the official synopsis. "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."

Of course, the 2006 Silent Hill film has no relation to the sequel, apart from the haunted town te stories are set in. For more details, visit the source articles over at Fangoria and Kotaku.
