Wow, this movie has actually caught my interest.
I have never played Silent Hill but this doesn't seem like just another cheaply made Video Game Movie. I might have to check it out. FELIPE NO |
I won't be looking at any of those clips (movie's less than a week away), but I am glad to hear that the opionions have been favorable.
But now I'm wondering if including the original music from the games and putting them in the movie is the greatest idea. Don't get me wrong, the music in SH 2-4 can easily pass in a film, but the problem is the songs themselves. Practically all the music in the SH series is context-sensitive to the games they were made for. The song used in the trailers, for example works great at the situation it was originally intended for (the piano melody played when you meet Angela in the hotel), but the question is whether it can work in a totally seperate story and situation. I was all for Yamaoka's music being used, but to have the entire soundtrack consist of previous music? It almost feels like a way to save money. I would have preferred a whole new soundtrack composed by Yamaoka. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Any movie/show with Tanya Allen in it.. Is gonna have great acting in it..She is extremely talented in my opinion..
It's sad though, I don't like horror movies.. Yet this is one of her big time movements in her career.. Sux that I wont watch it. Unless of course I find a date that wants to go.. Cuz that's always a score..Otherwise I'm probably not gonna be motivated to go. .dc How ya doing, buddy? |
Clips look good, but
Spoiler:
Most amazing jew boots so they may learn the glorious craft of acting from the dear leader |
Besides, having Akira Yamaoka's music remixed to 5.1 isn't too shabby either. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

So I personally think they'll do a great job with music. (Pray they'll put in "betrayal" for PH, that would kick ass)
This movie couldn't come any sooner. =D I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Someone linked me a quote from a SA member, claiming that he's been working on a site or blog for one of the actresses. He said that, due to the inside info that she's been sharing with him, that this movie is going to be quite graphic, to the point that there may be some last minute censorship. He said it's even possible the movie will be banned in certain places.
I'd link to the post, but SA hasn't been working for me lately. What do you think if this proves true? I never considered the SH series too graphic, as it gets most of its disturbances from the imaginations conjured up from the freaky, hard to make out images. Perhaps most of the graphic content mentioned has to do with the freaky background objects, and not actual gore. Anyone know how soon before some early impressions or reviews come in? I'm all set to watch this as soon as it comes out, but I'd like to hear some positive feedback to dispell any fears I have left. I was speaking idiomatically. |

Personally, I think he's getting better. From SH2 to 3, his style of music for the series has been less psychedelic horror and more modern, MTV style music. But with SH4, he mixed the two genres together, making the music more dark and depressing. Room of Angel is the perfect example of this fusion.
FELIPE NO |
I heard there's a pretty graphic scene in the film from a previous interview.
Gore hounds should be pleased, it said. Spoiler:

Anyone know what trailers will be attached, or what.
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
I'm guessing the Omen remake. Other than that, nothing too notable I guess.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
But in my opinion, we need more dissonance, and less music. Like this track from SH3. The first time I heard it I was caught in a narrow hallway with a slurper and a split head dog and I nearly pissed my fucking pants. They came out of nowhere and this track started playing immediately. The sounds are what made it so scary. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
How ya doing, buddy? |
According to Coming-Soon.net, they're not screening it early for critics
That's always a bad sign, but I'm not giving up hope. I pray it has to do with the last minute censorship like you mentioned, but who knows. Regardless, I'm catching it early tomorrow night with my film professor, so hopefully I'll be home in ample time to tell you all how it is! I was speaking idiomatically. |
Could be to protect a twist. Early impression that are leaking to SH-forums and SA from non-fans are glowing.
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Badass. Have any examples or links?
FELIPE NO |
I heard about one scene where: Spoiler:
The only Silent Hill I've played is the second one, and this movie looks absolutely amazing. As far as video game movies tend to be. How ya doing, buddy? |
A couple choice quotes:
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Wow.
I want that costume. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
I still want to hear Melissa Williamson (or any other names she may have now) because I love her song in the SH 3 and 4 OST but still keep the other track like the ones in SH2 or 3 ^^ This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
New and fun interview with ROGER AVARY, Silent Hill's main writer!
JoBlo's interview with ROGER AVARY Well, gotta sleep soon so I can get all my energy up for the Silent Hill Advance Screening tomorrow! :biggrin: Most amazing jew boots |
I just bought the first SH video game yesterday. I'm going to watch the movie friday, then play the game saturday. I might get myself a sandwhich inbetween now and then as well.

Don't expect the game to be filled with answers since it wasn't tought-out to be a series at this point. Also, the movie's scenario is compromised of the the 'Questions' from the first game and the 'Answers' from the third game.

I just got back from seeing the movie, and I was surprised with how good of a movie it was.
I was expecting NOTHING good going into it (much like I did with Resident Evil movies) but the movie had a lot to offer, and with it being something over 2 hours long, it was great to sit through. The deaths were great to see, finally a movie where I just sat and watched and said "Dude, that is some fucked up shit!" to myself. With the most brutal deaths. The movie did great with sound and how it is used, much like the game, I liked how they pretty much used subject matter from all the games within the movie. I don't want to give much away, so I will end what I saw with this, but it was a good solid video game movie. The ending, I hope when someone else see's it can explain it to me, because I didn't understand the ending AT ALL. EditJust saw the review a few posts up, and they pretty much hit the nail on the head and I agree with most of it. There were a lot of parts which were very overdramatic (mostly what I saw between the girl and the mother in the beginning). There were a few other things, but I didn't notice as much as that. FELIPE NO
