Silent Hill: The Game: The Movie

Rating: 8/10 (22 April 2006)

Unlike most other video game movie adaptations in which an obscene amount of "Artistic reinterpretation" is taken, this movie sticks amazingly close to it's source material. While not intending to be a prequel or sequel to any of the games, it's plot basically parallels that of the original Silent Hill. There are variations, such as PH's appearance, or the fact that this movie's cult is counter-intuitive to that of the games (an interesting and easy to follow change). However, on the whole, is captures entirely the suspense and disturbing images embodied in the video games of it's namesake. It could be said the ending is quite a bit of a cliffhanger, and good golly, let us hope they make more, this is the start of something with potential.
