Not the best, but not the worst...

Rating: 5/10 (30 April 2006)

I also don't know what movie the first (this movie is a 10!) poster was seeing. There was no one in the audience screaming.
I get more creeped out playing the games than watching the movie. One person even walked out of the theater, about 15 minutes into the movie. There were 6 whole people in the theater... myself, my 14 year old, and his best friend included. I am a huge fan of the games. As a 37 year old they are the only games I will play. (Racing games and I really don't mix, plus my kids almost pass out from laughing so hard while watching me try to play them.) I loved the creatures in the movie, especially Pyramid Head. And the nurses were great too. The graphics/makeup/special effects were awesome. The janitor was exceptionally creepy! The acting was not that great, IMO. And the movie was not scary. Gory, disgusting, and a little creepy in some parts... but never scary. If you love the games, by all means go and see this movie. Either you really love the movie, or you don't, according to the reviews I've read here. I think I was expecting a lot more. Maybe Silent Hill 2 will be better?????
