Silent Hill movie

The contest was a complete waste of time, not to mention all the loopholes. I mean you could submit your entry, vote for it and then wipe your cookies and then vote for your entry again without the 24 hour time limit. Rinse and repeat.

It's no wonder the finalists were a load of crap.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Oh my God, Pyramid Head has his great knife.

I have no more doubts about this movie. The two most anticipated films for me, and they're both landing in April. Good times.

I read that spoiler scene in aint it cool. Suffice to say, that's more than he ever did in the actual game. I hope there's more where that came from.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Is that the reason? Still, Sony was suppose to sort the top 50 in house and choose the top 5. Halfway through, they changed the description of the contest to imply this was no longer the case. This one getting through is their lazy-ass fault.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Are they even going to use that poster? I thought I read a disclaimer that basically said, "We will not necessarily use your poster if it wins" which was sort of covering their ass.

I hope they use a better poster. In all honesty, no poster can do the movie justice. Or rather, no poster can get you as excited as you should be, thus is really doesn't matter what's in it because people will just glance at it as they walk movie theater corridors and think, "another horror movie, who cares".

I was a bit wary at first, but seeing this trailer really made me want to see the movie. I'm still a little miffed at the needless sex-change of the main character, but... well, Pyramid Head!

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Female lead means more men see it. It's not a needless change, if you want to a movie to sell.

And let's face it, women freak out at horrific stuff way more than a man believably could.

FELIPE NO

Here's the WonderCon PH clip that was also shown at a Fangoria Con this weekend. The quality is shit but if you want to check it out....

It's not all of the clip though and ends just as

Spoiler:

PH is about to twist and rip off the woman's skin and throw it towards Rose and Cybil as they close the church doors.

I'll wait for someone to get it and put it on a hosting place. 4k/s is too long for me to wait for that clip. :\

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I hope Pyramid Head does some better stuff during the movie. I usually like spoilers, but I'm totally pissed at myself for ruining that part.

How ya doing, buddy?

I'm glad this video was in poor quality. Seeing it on the big screen will probably be just as, if not more, exciting this way. I really enjoyed the clip and it was nice to see...

Spoiler:

Pyramid Head takin' bitches names. The way he grabbed that woman looked really painful.

With each interview, media blurb and release of footage, my faith in this movie increases. I like to go into things with low expectations, but Gans and his team's really making it tough.

Perfect. Downloading now!

How ya doing, buddy?

WHY DID IT CUT OFF RIGHT BEFORE HE ACTUALLY DID WHAT HE WAS GOING TO DO. WHAT BASTARD RECORDED THIS.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Crappy quality, and it cuts off right at the good part. :\

All things considered though...HOLY SHIT!

How ya doing, buddy?

Spoiler:

holy crap, you see the skin being twisted off!!

This movie is gonna be so sick!

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Yikes.

I'm not really one for the gore. I mean...I hope it has more of the sort of "ambient terror" that the games have, and not a lot of splatter shit.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The games could have done with some good splatter.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The games have always been very graphic while at the same time not. Not a lot of gratuitousness I guess is what I'm trying to say. It's a fine line to walk particularly in film, I'm sure a lot of people are going to be unhappy with whatever the level of violence will be.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Wow, I thought that was awful.

The generic Silent Hill "this music is supposed to disturb you, but in reality, it's just annoying you like scratching nails across a chalkboard" music track that accompanies the crowd running up the stairs makes it feel more like a comedy than anything.

How ya doing, buddy?

Mmm, grainy barely-visible SH movie clip...

Despite having to crank the gamma up just to see anything that was going on, that clip was a nice little treat. Too bad it cut away right before the gore.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Sure, you can't see what's going on, but holy shit.

Where are you, April 21?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

It looks simply amazing. It managed to avoid all the stereotypes of a typical game to movie conversion in its trailer.

I think this could be the first really good game to movie translation in history.

I don't know how the storyboard for the WonderCon clip found its way online, but it's online.

Here's a GIF of the storyboard frames. It continues past the end of the leaked clip.

I can only imagine what the rest of it looked like in motion.

That's just some guy's drawings of what he heard the Wondercon trailer was like. He didn't see the footage.

It's fanmade. Somebody over at S.H.F made it based on the various descriptions of the WonderCon clip.

Here's some monster details that was posted at S.H.F courtesy of Fangoria:

Gans also came up with a new beast to add to the existing world. "His name is the Janitor," he says. "And Akira Yamaoka thanked me for doing that. He is my personal addition to SILENT HILL, and he's a sick thing."

I believe we've already seen the latter creature in the trailer and it looks like this...

Finally Christophe Gans updated his production blog with some answers to a few submitted questions:
