Uwe Boll's BloodRayne Starts Shooting in August
Source: Hollywood North Report 
Thursday, March 4, 2004

Hollywood North Report tells us they've got the latest on director Uwe Boll's adaptation of Majesco's BloodRayne.

We first reported on this film back in October but when we spoke to Uwe Boll last month he mentioned that it may shoot totally in Eastern Europe. Well it seems that is no longer the case and expect to see more Vampires on the streets of Vancouver starting in August 2004.

Also announced is that Guinevere Turner (American Psycho) is writing the screenplay. For the full scoop check out our newly launched Bloodrayne Preview Page which also includes the latest press release.

Turner said "I'm thrilled at the opportunity to bring this character to the big screen - she's hot, she's p*ssed off, she has special powers - what's not to love?"

BloodRayne features the sexy, supernatural, huntress BloodRayne, an unholy breed of human and vampire. An explosive force with gymnastic dexterity and an intense lust for blood and action, BloodRayne was raised and trained by a secret agency to hunt down and eliminate supernatural threats around the globe.

XIII can be made into a movie. U know......loads of action and thrilling moments!!! A good director can make XIII something like the good old Indiana Jones style movies.

Unreal Tournament is also an interesting choice though the story is a weak point. But varied characters and some exciting battle scenes can be filmed as well!!!

Or how about Silent Hill? I think it has a fantastic premise to be made into a movie. The eerie atmosphere and the Nazgul-like creatures.......I think it will make for great cinema.

But I'm wondering who should be directing it......Peter Jackson perhaps (because he already has prior experience in making horror movies before LOTR and also he'll handle those creatures brilliantly like he did with the Nazgul, trolls, orcs, uruk-Hai, Balrog etc etc. in LOTR).

But he's busy making KING KONG, isn't he?

Description
Konami of America, announced that its hit psychological horror videogame series, Silent Hill, will be released worldwide as a major motion picture. Production company Davis Films will produce the feature film adaptation of Konami’s popular franchise. Produced by Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo, the Silent Hill games thrust players into a nightmarish world where they must unravel twisted storylines and battle grotesque creatures and terrifying monsters.

Bringing the series to the big screen is prolific producer Samuel Hadida whose credits include blockbuster films, True Romance, directed by Tony Scott and written by Quentin Tarantino, Spider, directed by David Cronenberg, and Brotherhood of the Wolf, directed by Christophe Gans. Gans, who also directed the major motion picture, Crying Freeman, has been appointed as the director of the Silent Hill feature film.

Silent Hill is a groundbreaking game with an atmosphere that has mesmerized millions of gamers all over the world - it is scary and clever, said Christophe Gans. I am very proud to be associated with this game.

Working closely with the production team, Konami Corporation will help recreate the universal appeal of the game by overseeing the script development, participating in the design of all the monsters, creatures and characters as well as aiding in the film’s soundtrack composition.

The success of the Silent Hill series is based on a perfect blend of suspense, plot twists and captivating characters, said Geoff Mulligan, Chief Operating Officer of Konami of America, Inc. We are confident that Samuel Hadida and his talented team will capture and create an unforgettable movie-going experience.

Silent Hill is the premiere franchise in the horror videogame genre with over four million copies sold in Japan, the U.S. and Europe. Silent Hill 3 for PlayStation 2 was recently released in August 2003 and is considered to be the best game in the series. With a terrifying narrative, spectacular graphics and a bloodcurdling soundtrack, Silent Hill 3 has already garnered numerous industry accolades and awards.

To further strengthen the Konami brand worldwide, the company is currently pursuing film production deals for its other blockbuster videogame franchises.

Great!!! I have a lot of hopes from that one. Hopefully they shouldn't screw up the Silent Hill series like they did with Tomb Raider or Resident Evil.

They should make Diablo. It would look like LOTR style.
