What projects is Barker working on for television?
A TV movie entitled Silo is in development for Fox. Silo reportedly deals with a creature made of flies and worms that haunts killing fields. Weaveworld is still in development to be adapted for television by Showtime. The screenplay was written by Michael Marshall Smith, author of the novels Only Forward and Spares. Peter Lenkov has been hired to re-write. Also in development are a series for HBO called “Heretics,” and a series that will debut on the DirecTV satellite service entitled “Witness To Fear,” about tabloid-TV producers who discover that the world of the paranormal they report on is actually real. No longer in development are a series called “Retribution” for Fox and a TV movie entitled Hoop Hell. Also, Shock Cinema is apparently no longer a television project, but a feature film project.
