Cooler Game to movie ever !!!

Rating: 9/10 (23 April 2006)

To start, lets say I'm not a big fan of the game, played an hour of SH1, played around 4-5 hour of SH2, i really liked the atmosphere and the town etc, but I'm not very patient in video game, not a fan of infiltration or save ammo, in silent hill most of the time you had to watch carefully your ammo and finish monster with the pipe, plus i founded the story in the 2 kinda boring, it did not took place for what i tought, played 6 hour and the guy was still searching for his wife but no story development etc, it kinda bored me. The 1 i simply stopped cause the graphic aspect annoyed me considering its on the old playstation 1 and i tried to play it after the PS2 was released.
This said i still liked the atmosphere and all, and when the movie start i was happy to see it was the same beginning(with the jeep) , the first scene of the first silent hill redone very well and very scary. Sure they changed the name of Cherril for Sharon but well...Harry was changed for that women(who look a lot like Heather of the 3) but in a way it was better i supposed considering the whole mother-child relation of the movie plus a man helped by a women cops...would have be weird in a movie.
Anyway to return to the movie, i found it very scary, i was very nervous every time the horns was heard, the nightmare world was amazing, so scary and disturbing, and the pyramid head was one very cool monster, it was just too bad he was not more present and that he kinda disappear after a part of the movie. Would have like a lot to see him more.
So overall i think even if the story is different from the game on some point, the way they kept monsters, places(school for example) , some scenes, that was really a great movie, and the closest adaptation of a game i saw. And also a very scary movie, i did not saw a scary movie like that in a long time.
