Silent Hill movie

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.

Why does everybody think Pyramid Head's wearing a mask?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

TV trailer. Supposedly airing now on ... uh...television.

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

In Soviet Russia, Pyramid Head likes you.

Rebirth makes more sense within the context of the story. Also, she may not even be done speaking. You know how evil deities always like giving themselves different titles.

"I AM THE WICKED.
I AM THE REAPER.
I AM THE REBIRTH!"

or some shit.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I can guarantee that I'd have plenty of difficulty moving around in my pants, being that they'd be plenty marinated in a generous blend of urine and fecal matter. That said, I can't say I'd be much help to my kid. I'd honestly try to keep my cool, if only to keep Emmanuel Jr. from freaking out.

Now if I were alone, that'd be a different story. It all really depends on what kind of freaky stuff I'd be seeing, and whether or not I had the means necessary to defend myself. A steel pipe and a single hand gun wouldn't do it for me, but if I had an AK, some grenades, and a brick my confidence would more than likely swell.

Ideally.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I've found bricks far more intimidating than long, slender pieces of polished steel.

Rose's daughter says that she has many names in the scene from the second trailer (the TV spot). So, like some of you have said before, there's a possibility that she might include "rebirth" or some shit.

I'm glad to see that the monsters still retain their "jerky/spastic" animations. The more I see of this movie the higher my expectations rise, which is kind if depressing. I like going into most everything with abysmally low expectations, so as to be better surprised.

Thanks for the link, Simo!

The Blockbuster I worked at had a copy of Jacob's Ladder to rent. I recall recommending it to a few older customers (and once a teenaged punk rock couple who wanted something kind of different). I was surprised that every single one of them came back very pleased with the movie. Some even told me they would never have rented the movie otherwise.

But yeah, Amanda's right. Blockbuster wouldn't carry the movie for purchase. In fact, most wouldn't carry it for rental purposes either. It's not a very popular movie, and for that reason Blockbuster would sooner remove it to make room for a more popular title.

Mobius One, diggin' the SH gifs. Also glad to see a gif from Jacob's Ladder. You wouldn't happen to have one of the creep in the car near the beginning?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Other than that, and this is coming from a guy who loves a good bad movie, there wasn't much else Doom had to offer. My friends and I were left feeling like we'd wasted a good hour and a half of our day off.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

That scene felt so unnatural to me. It was definitely interesting and actually kind of cool (the generic but somehow fun metal blasting in the background probably helped), but I don't know. It felt like good sex, but with a hamster.

How ya doing, buddy?

Just watched this clip. I'm looking forward to this movie all the more, especially with the "school" music playing at the end.

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

I found a movie poster for this earlier. Looks pretty realistic to me.

Here's a quote I found on IGN regarding the sequel to Silent Hill, from Christophe Gans himself:

The sound is amazing in the game. And the music…spectaculariffic."

Gans went on to ensure some continunity between the two films: "Sean Bean's character will visit Silent Hill once more and, as some fans have suspected, will play the role of James from Silent Hill 2. As you can see from this movie poster (an early draft), we've taken liberties with James' attire and weaponry. He's prepared for whatever Silent Hill may present. Avary submitted a rough draft of the sequel's script last week and we're currently throwing a bunch of ideas around. We definitely want more of the Red Pyramid, but there's also the possibility of overdoing it a bit. You know, pleasing the fans and ourselves with a certain character can kill what made him cool in the first place."

Was that him in Returner? He did a pretty bad job, but I felt the female lead was even worse. The movie had some nice fight scenes though. Not great, but interesting.

I expected believable acting, a coherent plot, and the kind of fear and anxiety one feels while turning into a dark and ominious corner of the Silent Hill games. The movie failed to deliver on all parts, as the monsters were more humorous then frightening, the dialogue inexcusably bad and therefore hilarious, and it loved detracting from moments where I was just about gaining interested by switching to the scenes with the husband. The husband scenes were necessary, but they could have been placed better in the film. Also, were the gyrating nurses really necessary? Was that really meant to frighten anyone? Was that a joke? Because I definitely interpreted it that way. Big-breasted, undead nurses with short skirts that starts moving when a light is shone and freezes when the light is turned off is NOT SCARY. A dead fucker named Colin with outstanding abilities in postmortem yoga is NOT SCARY. There were too many random elements mashed together and it left a bad aftertaste in my mouth. The movie was basically a message against religious fanaticism fortified by the use of sadistic torture fueled by personal vengeance. What the fuck is that? So yes, hate me, I laughed throughout the entire film while everyone else was quiet and "scared".

What exactly do you consider scary, though? It's different for everybody, but keep in mind that this is a Silent Hill film adaptation. Most of the "frights" are inspired by the games themselves. Have you even bothered to pick one up and play it?

If you want a movie where a guy slashes people to death (omgawd scary), then this clearly wasn't the movie for you.

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