I wonder how many people realize that this movies is "The Green Arrow" movie ??? This script has been around for awhile and it involves the Green Arrow from the DC Universe and comic books being put in prison and having to fight his way out of a riot. I didn't realize their was any "horror' element to this movie, but there were some rumors that a couple of inmates would be from Batman's rogues gallery, like Killer Croc and the Penguin but I guess we'll see.

I was wondering if they had dropped the Green Arrow aspect or not.

I got mixed feelings about this being a comic book fan. As much as i like horror, i dont think this is the right movie for it.

An original idea? I'll wait for the remake.

Wow. We all bitch about remakes so when an original, no matter what it rips off or is inspired by, gets shit on. I'm curious about this project. It sounds more like a super natural version of Assault on Precinct 13 set in a prison. Fuck the Green Arrow.

battletorn makes a good point. It really depends on how much they amp the horror and the credibility of the prison. If's it's HBO's "OZ" meets "The Monster Squad" then it's gonna be a lot better than trying to cater to the DC comic crowd from a storyline only your Xbox Live group knows about. Greenlight more original horror and stop with all the insepid remakes.

I'm glad this isn't being used as a Green Arrow movie. I liked the storyline, but it just doesn't seem like the right movie to launch a superhero franchise.

Agreed, Sentinel. The plot sounds fun, but I can't really picture it being a superhero film.

It's an original idea at least. sounds interesting.

I think with Nelson's background and Rouse's background this will hit the right balance of "real" & "un-real" as far as story and look. If the right person plays the main character this could be a big fuckin deal. I agree though, this isn't a superhero vehicle. I think they realize that. I can't wait.
