Peculiar

Rating: 4/10 (1 November 2006)

I've never seen or even heard of the game "Silent Hill", but if they're going to turn a game into a movie, they should at least make sure 'everyone' is familiar with it.
The movie was okay as far as movie-making techniques go, but the storyline & ending were rather confusing. At the end of the movie, I, like many others, was thoroughly confused.
What was the whole point? I mean, just because some of the townspeople thought the girl was sin incarnate & wanted to burn her, the whole town is turned into a hell of sorts? Seemed like overkill to me.
Of course, not being of the gaming generation, perhaps my opinions are blurred by old fashioned ideas of what a horror movie should be. I just felt they should at least make sense all the way through it.
