Silent Hill movie Options

Wow. I am very surprised that no one has posted anything about this yet...
This was the best video game to movie translation I have ever seen. Hands down. AND it was a damn fine movie too boot!
Seriously!
They nailed everything about Silent Hill: the look, the sounds, the "holy shit what the hell is that thing?!!", even the music was straight from the game.
I highly recommend this movie to any horror fan and if you're a Silent Hill fan, then RUN to the theatre and see it.
One caveat though - This is one gorey friggin movie. Much more so than I ever thought it was going to be. Super violent, too. I guess it was to be expected seeing that you are running for your life beating things down with a pipe or blasting them with a shotgun, but when you see it on screen it's much more so! Just a slight warning.

Silent Hill movie - Two thumbs up!

ps: I'd say more, but I don't want to give anything away for those who haven't see it yet.

Although I have not seen this movie, your review now enlightens me to believe it may actually be worth the cash to fork out. Being a fan of the game, I have read forums and such that discuss the history/folkore surrounding the game. Playing the game was probably the most frightening experience I had with a game.

So far I have played the part 1-3 of silent hill, I have yet to try out 4. Silent Hill 2 and 3 were definitely far more scary than part 1. And reading the discussions about the game just makes it all that much more scarier. As they delve into the reasons behind the look and the names of the enemies you face. But enough about that, if this movie is as true as you say it is, my brother and I will definitely watch it. I can only hope that if it is f**king scary, I don't run like a chicken with it's head cut off.
