Should have cut my losses 30 minutes into this.....

Rating: 2/10 (31 October 2015)

I watched this because Radha Mitchell is a brilliant and stunningly beautiful actress ; that accounts for both stars . The film is essentially plot less after the first 30 minutes , and never holds one in suspense . Special effects are ridiculously overdone , being thrown at the viewer almost nonstop , to the point where you get the feeling of going through an amusement park scary house when you were seven years old ( and you need a seven year old mentality to get a thrill out of this ) . The blood and gore is , again , thrown at the viewer wholesale , with little rhyme or reason . When the mystery of Silent Hill is explained towards the end of the film , the bizarre pieces still don't fit together smoothly , the different pieces just being flung all over the place .....Oh yes , I did mention the pointless downpour of blood and gore......
