Return To Silent Hill Sets Franchise-Low US Opening Weekend

Return To Silent Hill Sets Franchise-Low US Opening Weekend https://ift.tt/sVXoDCc Return to Silent Hill hit the big screen on the weekend, but this adaptation of the beloved Silent Hill 2 video game isn't doing too well critically or commercially in the US.
