    Oh God, this is above The Ring. Gotta take deep breaths and remind myself this is a gamer site.

      Editing … Well I watched it when I was like 12 or 13 so I would prob hate it if I watched it now but I thought it was interesting back then.

      Editing … There are many films I think are terrible, but the Silent Hill movies are in a whole other realm of horribleness.

      Editing … I was that young too. If I'd been older I would've been wise enough not to have high expectations.

      Editing … I also refused to watch it. Hell, I refuse to play Downpour. I would take Homecoming over the 2006 movie.

      Editing … A lot of people actually liked the Silent Hill movie. I think I've actually heard more compliments than complaints. There are parts I liked for sure. The whole school section isn't bad. And it used the music from the games, can't go wrong there. And the part where she's looking over the broken off road is great fan service. And while it didn't scare me at all parts were intense. But I disliked most else about it.

    They replaced Harry Mason with a woman because it's "more believable" that a mom would love a child. They added a ridiculous car chase, a boring prologue, unnecessary town backstory, turned the cult into a generic "burn the witch" organization, turned Alessa from simply the victim into a dark vengeance seeker cause creepy children amiright, threw in Pyramid Head for stupid fan service, took out most of the shooting (not that Silent Hill was about the shooting but it still felt weird that only one monster got shot and Rose spent half the time in hadcuffs), and they built up the hospital like crazy and there was only one thing in it. Also, there was hardly any Lisa and it wasn't scary, plus there's too much gore. The music was good because it was from the games, and moments like the gap in the road and the bathroom transformation are cool, plus there's a nice feeling of intensity, and really most of the school part isn't bad. But honestly, I even like Homecoming more.

    A chance for a great, timeless horror classic is wasted on lazy retellings of elements from the first 3 games and tiresome fan pandering. *Yawn* At least it looks fancy. Give the Silent Hill name to a competent director and allow him to go crazy and creative with the lore and I might be interested.

    Back in 2006 I entered the cinema thinking - or, rather, hoping - that maybe someone had finally made a movie based on a video game that was halfway watchable. But alas. Another disappointment. Take Silent Hill, strip it of all the aspects that make it mysterious and interesting, add some gimmicks like Pyramid Head or bits and pieces of the original soundtrack in order to fool original fans that they are somehow being catered for - and voila, a substandard waste of time for everyone concerned. Except for the set designers, they actually did a good job. But script? Direction? Forget it. I'm told the sequel is even worse, but I'd be barking mad if I was to waste my time on another cinematic atrocity, especially when it's better spent drooling over another playthrough video of the Silent Hills teaser on Youtube. Alas, alas. Alas.
