Silent Hill BD [Blu-ray]

I first saw Silent Hill before I played a Silent Hill game. Years ago, I had heard that the movie was not particularly liked although it did OK at the box office. Critcis left less than enthusiatic reviews. I was reading today on Wikipedia the recption to this movie and it was was not great. .... Comments like meandering plot, overlong, and vague.Anyway,. I had always liked this movie and watched it when it was on TV, at least twice. More recently, a few times I looked to buying it on blu-ray. However it was always expensive, so gave it a miss. .... At the price of £22 now it is overpriced, but it's quite rare to buy, so I decided eventually, to buy it.Loved every minute of it.1. Critics saying it was meandering are just plain wrong. If you watch putting subtitles on and off, if you can't figure some dialogue it's a crystal clear plot. .... Let's face it, we all wish movies directed for clearer dialogue. Is there even a movie made since 1990 that every word is audible in it. When watching movies, it's often like, 'I didn't quite hear that, but I get the general idea'.2. Secondly, in blu-ray everything is much clearer to see, and it enhances the picture a lot over TV standard definition.Silent Hill is a strong freaky movie. ...... Also since seeing Silent Hill on TV years ago, I played the Silent Hill: Homecoming video game in 2015. I see now why the set of the movie is exactly how it is. .... In that respect the movie is faithfull to the game series. Although I do not know if the movie was based on a particular game from the series. ... Yes I know Homecoming was not seen as the best game. I liked it first time I played it, but was infuriated with the controls. Second time I played I loved it; blown away. I think simply because I came to it knowing what to expect with the controls on PC gaming.There's probably not much I can add to anything that other reviewers have said, in terms of what you see. The enemies are excellent, and always felt that was a strong point of the movie. The feeling is disorientation and way out, and the lives of the characters being changed forever.Is it worth £22? .... Well, that's a personal choice. .... I say if you liked what you saw on TV, then you will like it more on blu-ray, garaunteed. ... I balked at the price, but I genuinely loved watching it in blu-ray.

As a fan of the game I really appreciated the way they kept that true spirit to the game, which is creepy to say the least. the music was strongly linked too, which was a character in itself. It is not as scary as the games (scary as hell) but I really enjoyed the visuals and the soundtrack is superb. The gender change was clever I thought. Its not the dad running around looking for his daughter, they switched parents, so the mother is on her own trying to figure out everything while trying to avoid being taken out by nasty twisted creatures. Radha is just so bad ass in this. I have always loved her but she really works it in this.What I am most happy with is that they put in the alley way scene at the start of the movie and actually did an ok job of it. In the game it is a gazillion times scarier but it brought back some good memories. Anyone who has played the first game will always mention that fist part when you hear the sirens go off. every hair stands up and then they just slam you will the worlds scariest soundtrack. Pure genius. Even the camera angles and directions are the same, it actually lifts up over her as she runs past and goes back down from behind her. I loved that.Speaking of the soundtrack, the tracks include songs from games 1-3 and they are all amazing. you can buy them for all games and bring you deeper into the world. the one thing about the games is the amount of emotion involved. All three games (in particular the 2nd one)has very sad and tragic stories. I am very happy they gave Lisa some screen time because her case actually made me very sad along with many gamers out there. That's how much you care about the characters.This movie is a fun ride, depending on what you call entertainment. It is a bit twisted and some parts are quite extreme but so is the game so if you don't mind images like nurses with no faces, children with twisted heads and screaming.....you know things like that, then there shouldn't be a problem. Ooh and the barbed wire part...holy moly that had me crossing my legs.This is still one of my favourite movies.....just for that one quotes..."To rid the world of this demon - WE MUST BURN THIS CHILD!" - "look at me....im burning"The extras are quite good, there is a long "making of" feature that shows you all the people that are in the costumes YES THEY ARE ALL ACTED OUT. It is amazing to think that each creature had its own "driver" and actor. I would absolutely recommend buying the dvd to see how this movie was made, especially the part with the nurses. Omg wow so cool. Pyramid head is in here and the "lying creatures" or armless man. SO SO CREEPY!The entire cast is amazing in this, every single one whether good or bad, they all just added to the whole movie. This movie has a very strong female leading cast. they are a bunch of power houses, every single one. Poor Chris did what he could haha.Absolutely fantastic movie.

For this adoption of a computer game made into a film by the director Christopher Gans who again turned to the writer Rodger Avery who he previously worked with him on his 1995 "Crying Freeman" film, that film was from a manga magazine but this time instead of being a unaccredited writer for that film he wrote the screenplay for Silent Hill.Instead of changing the story from the game the action and gory scenes are played almost exactly as it does in the video game making the whole movie experience quite strange and surreal for anyone who hadn't played the game and scary for a whole load of other reasons, I found the film a little slow at the beginning but once the town of Silent Hill is found the pace picks up.The story is where a Mother searches for her lost child in the town of Silent Hill, this role is played by Radha Mitchell the town appears to be built on a permanently smouldering coal seam.The monsters that feature have been directly lifted from the game along with the backgrounds which gives the film another world atmosphere that is both dark and disturbing in equal measure, this is better than your average game to film adoption and has some genuine moments that make the viewer jump.This DVD is presented in 2:35.1 aspect and has a really well mixed 5.1 surround sound track, and has some interesting special features including a Making of documentary, the original trailer, photo gallery and U.K. T.V. spots.

Great film. Brand new sealed

Fast delivery and item exactly as described

Primo film dalla saga Videoludica creata da Konami negli anni 2000 (da quello che ricordo,giocavo al 2 su Ps1 non mi volete male per favore🤣🤣) Avendo visto il film,posso dire che è piaciuto moltissimo,ambientazione e atmosfere ricreate da dio,Make Up e Effetti Speciali davvero ben fatti!Non sono mai stato fan sfegatato della saga, ma un giocatore casual che gioca un pò a tutto in questo caso.Il Film lo consiglio ai fan della saga e non e ai nuovi che vogliano godersi un pò di dose Horror in tranquillità senza problemi,perché il film non riprende nessuna trama dai videogiochi,ma una storia nuova con l'essenza del gioco💪🏻😉

I really wanted this in my collection and ordered immediately when I looked at the price. The only thing about this blu-ray version is that it uses DTS-HD hi res audio instead of DTS-HD master, don’t know why they would do that.

As the headline suggests, I originally had a copy of Silent Hill on DVD, and when I watched it recently, I was throughly disappointed with the visual quality. The film uses a lot of computer generated imagery, especially locations, so the upgrade to Blu-Ray was a must. I can now finally enjoy the dark, rotting walls brick by brick, rather than feeling like my device needs a pair of glasses.As for the film itself, I stand by my edict of Silent Hill being the best video game movie going(and yes, I've seen the 2021 Mortal Kombat). Between using character names, locales, and even music from the game series, Silent Hill pays homage to its source material rather than build anew from its concept. My favorite part of the film however is the often solitary journey protagonist Rose De Silva must undergo to find her run-away daughter. I genuinely feel like I am apart of the adventure, rather than on the outside looking in(a feeling I only ever got with Spirited Away). To me, Silent Hill has a perfect 10 plot, but was lowered critically due to the occasional cheesy line, sub-par acting, and budgetary constrains. All these are forgivable when you consider the tense quest, the freaky visuals, and the sheer labour of love that French director Christophe Gans put into his film.P.S. Sean Bean is NOT the protagonist of the film. Gans admitted that Bean was the last, major character actor cast for the film and it shows. He only shares one scene with lead Radha Mitchell and Jodelle Ferland, and the rest of his parts are his own, individual subplot he shares with Kim Coates. So while the ad notes Sean Bean as the main actor, don't go thinking you are in for a Sean Bean horror epic.
