So is anyone else excited for this?

It just may be the only good videogame movie ever.

It is a CG animation? if so, it is the most perfect thing ever made, 98,5% i could tell that everything looks real.

Um...no. It's live action. Almost no CGI at all, actually.

It looks pretty creepy, I love the falling ash everywhere in the town. Mayhap I will go see it.

The game was so frickin' scary & so cinematic that if they manage to somehow fuck this movie up, I will personally travel to Hollywood, find the producer, director, and individual heads of studio, and beat them about the head and neck with a great big tire iron.

That is all.

:wink:

It looks good for a video game movie. That pyramid head dude is one of the freakiest bad guys ever created.

The first one for PS1 is a classic, and 2 and 3 aren't bad either.

Never found a used copy of part 4.

i think this movie will be incredible. they hired a director who was obsessed with the video games to begin with.

i would say part 2 is the best game. but part 1 is definitely up there.

nice thing about Silent Hill is that its not your typical "somethings going to jump out around the corner" horror plot. its more psychological and disturbing.

I've actually never played them. Not much of a gamer.

I love those games, so, yeah... I'm pretty excited and hope they don't mess up.

This looks like it could be really good. Visually, it stays true to the video games, which is a very good thing. You'd be hard pressed to find a video game with a more engaging atmoshpere. It looks like they changed a few of the characters, and probably added some too. If i remember the games correctly, you didn't encounter too many other people.

This is probably one of my all time favorite video games, i remember when the first one came out and my buddy and I would stay up all night playing it, trying to figure out the damn puzzles.

My boyfriend is WAY into this game, says it's his favorite ever. Between him, and the previews that look AWESOME, I'm seriously amped for this movie.
I'm not a gamer at all, but I'm curious about maybe getting the game. Is there a PC version??
