I'll go and see it in the cinema when it's done. But if I hear a stupid rock soundtrack at the start, I'm walking straight out.
Thank God this isn't the work of Uwe Boll, though.

BTW, I didn't know Silent Hill was in Toluca County, West Virginia... XD
I still keep hearing music from the games in the trailer, so maybe they will reuse the music... or maybe create some new music with the same feel.

I'm not asking for things like great acting with a movie like this. All I want is for it to stay true to what made the games so great in the first place; totally surreal and nightmarish enemies and locations that have you believing you've actually walked straight into hell. We'll see how it turns out, but like I said, so far so good.
That first trailer... they deffinitely got the style down. Grainy and freakish contrast and imagery. I love how they worked around the trailer in the official site though. The background changed as the it went on. Awesomeness. I have hope for this movie. It looks excellent so far. Also looks like they're attmepting to stay to the style of the games. Not many do that >_>; It should really help them out this time once the meat of it all starts pumping in your face.
I can't wait. I want this now. :( I'm experiencing Silent Hill withdrawal.
edit: holy crap that trailer was awesome
That trailer has pretty much set it in stone for me: I'm going to love it. Yeah, it looks like they're drifting from the story a bit, and yeah, the acting doesn't look top notch. But they have the two most important aspects down to a T: the atmosphere/look, and the music. That's all that really matters to me when it comes to a Silent Hill movie. This film has been in development for years, so I guess all the time is paying off.
And for the purists I've seen everywhere throwing a fit over the fire concept... it could be so much worse. Watch the opening of that trailer again. It's almost frame for frame straight from the video game. They may have changed a bit, but this is the most faithful looking VG adapation I've ever seen.
Heh. Overall, the trailer looks good, despite the fact that I had to view it without sound (I'm at college). It looks good, yeah, and I'll go and see it, but it seems to lack originality and looks like a bit of a cliché.
I mean, c'mon... In how many horror movies have you seen a car swerve out of the way of something in the middle of the road and crash, making the driver walk? Quite a few, I reckon...
Don't pretend you know who that is.Quote:

I never usually take much interest in movies that are based on video games, but now that I've seen the trailer for the silent hill movie I must say it does look like a well done movie, and it could be quite a thriller.
