Silent Hill makes me happy!!!!

Rating: 8/10 (20 April 2006)

OK, first off to the people who gave it bad reviews: do you have any idea what the real Silent Hill is about? the games themselves leave us players asking questions even until the ending. there are still parts in the four games I am still trying to figure out. Second, the games are scary in the psychological point of view. third, the film itself isn't just about the gore or the freaky "pop out" scares, what made it scary was the fact of Rose's reason to be there. Silent Hill the movie did exactly what the video games did, it scared me to a point where i realized i was also living it (when I play the games i feel like I am the one isolated there). The movie did the same for me and i am happy for that. the music was awesome and the monsters were believable. the story itself is explained in a form where the audience must ask themselves the questions in order to find the secrets beneath. the games made me do the same and so does the movie. The thing about the movie is that if you do not pay close attention to the film you won't get it, not even the ending. the gore and blood is a lot but hey it is Silent Hill. the "other" world is so believable again I felt like i was there. The only thing I had a problem with in the movie was that it kind of jumped to the town without going into much explanation with who they were. But then again that's Silent hill for you, you do not know the characters until you uncover their backgrounds through 'clues". Awesome and terrifying story 10/10.
