One of the best horror movies I ever Seen

Rating: 9/10 (22 April 2006)

Silent Hill is a not your typical horror movie. Unlike most horror movies it contains a plot one must actually make an effort to follow. But it is like other horror movies in the sense that it is creepy and gory; it just does so to a higher degree with an atmosphere so twisted it as interesting as any of the characters. The characters, by the way, are well acted and fit into the plot seamlessly. The monster characters were sinister and all seemed to have a surreal and unique design to them. If your are a fan of gore like myself you will come to appreciate the detailed death scenes and creativity of the executions. The soundtrack added to the eerie vibe with its ambient tones and slow tempo. The only complaint I have is that I wanted to see more of the dark world portrayed in the movie, because it was so intensely eerie, immersive, and thrilling that when it was gone it left me with an adrenalin rush withdrawal. There were also some spots where they could of used props over computer effects to deliver more realistic effects, but the computer effects were by no means sub-standard. All in all, This movie was deep, evil, surreal, immersive, and had its fair share of action scenes. Its a must see for any horror fan and has set the mark, in my opinion, for all horror movies to follow.
