Don Carmody, the man that brought us Rabid and Porky's (not to mention A Christmas Story and Weekend at Bernie's), has his hands busy with two video game adaptations: Silent Hill 2 and Clock Tower. Carmody, who won an Oscar for Chicago, produced the Silent Hill prequel as well, but has revealed that director Christophe Gans won't return to helm SH 2 as he's "involved pretty heavily in another project right now."
