whatever. i still stand by my opinion. i think it tried to be scary and failed miserably. i was extremely bored throughout the whole thing. everyone i had went with thought it was stupid too, there were parts in the movie that had the people in the theater laughing out loud. its not an agurment. i stand by my opinion and you stand by yours.

The way I saw it :
The town has three "dimensions" : - Earth, where it is just an abandonned town and where the husband goes - Purgatory (or Limbo), where the souls of those who commited hideous acts (the cultists) are stuck. This is the dreamy version of the town where the mother and the cop first appear and where those who have not escaped the fire and died roam. - Hell, which is the reality plagued by monsters and controlled by Alessa (if I remeber her name correctly). Hell sometimes reaches over Limbo (when the sirens go off), but the cultists prevent Alessa from really taking over. Alessa has sent her good part away and called her back so she can use the mother to get to the cultists. After their deaths, she takes over and is no longer bound to the city. Just my two cents...

I don't watch films that come from video games, but comparing it to The Crucible has piqued my interest.
Might catch it on HBO or something.

Pyramid Head was intimidating as hell. knowing nothing about the games, he was just this massive creature, plodding and relentless. very well done i thought. I actually have as tory i have been owrkingon for some time now based on the imagery from the Silent Hill 4 game trailers... if nothing else, they have the look and feel down to an artform.

i never played or saw the game but i loved the movie (maybe that was more of a help than a hinderance)
it sure looked to me like someone took the trouble to make a movie that would stand up on its own - instead of a cheap extension of some game. that would piss the fans of the game off i guess but it sure is a good thing for someone who loves an atmospheric, visually stunning horror flick.

I don't know if it was just the actress playing the mom or not, but some of her dialogue was just out of place in the scheme of things. I don't know if she didn't deliver it correctly or what.[/QUOTE]
Amen-it was her delivery...she did the same in Pitch Black...:(
