Jan 20 2006Silent Hill Trailer Showcases Small Town
So the Silent Hill trailer was released, and let me tell you, this place looks like one shit-hole of a town. First of all, it snows some kind of soot. Secondly, it's full of feral children. And third, there seems to be a constant threat of mutant attack. So what keeps visitors coming? The girls!

Is it me or does this movie actually look good? Someone please confirm.

It does look good. It's directed by Christophe Gans, who directed 'The Brotherhood of the Wolf', which was a great film. I initially thought that 'Silent Hill' was going to be another one of the Uwe Bolle disaters, but it looks very good. The trailer kind of reminded me of 'In the Mouths of Madness', with the whole lost town idea. Also, Sean Bean is in it, and he has a decent track record of not appearing in shit.

Well if the 4 video games this movie is based on is any indication then this movie SHOULD be creppy as hell with some outright plain disturbingly disgusting things.

The CG looks terrible, but hopefully they'll work that out, but besides that it looks pretty good. They even have the annoying Survival/Horror camera angles hehe.

yeah i like sean bean. this trailer does look good, and those things in the pic look pretty freaky. I can't remember the last good scary movie i saw, i hope this one is good.

The only thing I hate more than video games about mutants or zombies is the crappy movies they make based off of them....but this oddly looks entertaining, not good, but good fun.

Silent Hill never was your typical zombiefest. The games were always more like the Lovecraft mythos, with ordinary people being swept up into bizarre Elder God-y plots. The creatures pretty much defy description, combining representation of the town's disturbing background with the psychological state of the person they've been sent to torment.
Yep. I'm a big nerd, all right.
