We’re still developing a script and we’ve still got work to go on the script and that’s underway, but while that’s happening Neill is just producing his vision of this world. It is original and new and has not been seen before on the screen. It’s not Ridley Scott, it’s not James Cameron, it’s not what we’ve seen before, but it’s something new and fresh and it’s cool. That was important to us. Someone who was going to not go the cliched way, but go in the direction that they had an original vision for and Neill has got that in spades. We’re feeling really, really good.

…

I can see that tying all that CG technology to some Lovecraftian horror is going to be awesome.

*update* Had to add the Lovecraftian quote… Duh pasted wrong part of the line.

For a lazy director, like the one who directed Doom, Silent Hill would be too big of a piece to swallow.

From 1up.

Just take a look at the following…

HotD2 Writing Credits:

It's like some sort of strange Uwe Boll fest. I almost wonder if Boll shadow directed this train wreck. I'm not sure but I think I still like "Alone in the Dark" better. *shudder*

Do yourself a favor: Do not watch this movie EVER! It is not even a good type of bad – there is no Ed Wood charm to be found! Nothing! Just a waste of video game licenses.

Some screens:

Paul Anderson, best known for Alien vs. Predator has been named as writer and director. Production begins in the middle of next year, with the aid of Impact Pictures, which was reposnoible for Mortal Kombat and Resident Evil's silver screen outfings.

Well, at least the 'Mortal Kombat' and 'Resident Evil' movies where better then the 'Doom' movie…
