I obtained this the other day.Not watched it my self yet but i did one for my bro.
I saw him yesterday and he had watched it...."Not the best film but it was very true to the game"

I take that has a movie to watch if you liked the original games on the PSX...

Also if anybody on here is into printing covers on the discs i did a "tn Custom" cd cover for this..

[Rocol]

Mmmm .. got the movie already have you mate, wish I had it, looking forward to seeing it, with being an avid SH games fan ;)

[tnx]

mmmmmmmm.....I bet it wont be long before you get to watch it...

Damn those bank hollidays....

[Rocol]

Yes, agree mate, these Bank Holidays should be banned, or at least, make the Post Offices work them

Have seen the movie the other day,i enjoyed the SH film and those who haven't played the game may need to view it a few times..

overall: expected more from the film,but a average film for me. 7/10

@OG
Comments on my questions/thoughts regarding the ending?

Well the games have a quiet odd story too, I had to read afterwards what SH2 was about :O

[O.G]

Just finished watching the movie, and I must say it was not bad at all, it certainly kept very close to the game, especially in the scenes involvong Silent Hill itself, the only major difference is that it was the girls father that was driving the car, not her mother.

The streets of Silent Hill were practically identical to those in the game, even down to the wire mesh fences and gates and the ' Hopscotch ' drawing in the school playground

It was good to see ' Pyramid Head ' in the flesh, he sure looked as mean and evil as he did in the game .. I remember well having to run around the rooms trying to dodge that massive knife of his

THe corridors in both the school and the hotel brought back many memories of opening the wrong doors and coming face to face with some nasty critters, or meeting an instant, untimely death

The eerie atmosphere, from the game, was maintained throughout the movie too, which I thought was a good thing, as it was that which added to the horror of playing the game, and it certainly gave some feeling to the movie too, imo. The only downfall was the lack of mosters in it .. there could have been more.

Overall an enjoyable movie, for me, and it has certainly made me want to blow the dust off the game and give it a re-run, which I shall probably be doing this weekend

I agree about the ending though, it does leave you somewhat confused, and I can't remember how it ended it the game, but shall be checking it out, and also be watching the movie again, to look for some clues as to what we were supposed to imagine.

A decent movie, and some good special effects with a good eerie background sound, best heard in surround sound, especially the beating heart, I had to keep checking that it wasn't coming from me

As with you O.G, 7/10 from me, but very close to being an 8 ;)
