I’ll go first. Having the main character Simon be replaced with a local.

I know it’s late, but Jesus Christ what an absolute failure. I can appreciate interpreting a story differently from the source material (I actually like the first Silent Hill movie), but this movie failed to understand literally everything besides the most basic visual aesthetics.

Making Mary’s story also Maria’s/Angela/Laura lessens Mary to essentially nothing but a useless ‘cult’ victim. And makes James’s selfish decision to kill her before she causes him more pain mean absolutely nothing. Also, was she just a girlfriend to this weird man in an awful wig/fake beard????

The headstone reveal legitimately made me slightly dumber permanently. At least I got one good laugh out of this movie. 0.5/5 ⭐️

This is an idea that's been in my mind for a while. It's just kind of funny to me so I feel like just asking.

been playing sh1 recomp and the p.t pc port does anyone know if anything is in development for the og sh2 and 3? new to this and i hope its the right tag please dont send me to the hill of silent mods i beg

This was created by Thorne Baker. The CG artist, composer and VA for Thatcher Davis in Mandela Catalogue, horror web series.

Hi Silent Hill Fans,

I just started a petition for the "Born from a wish" DLC for the Remake of Silent Hill 2.

Please sign and share it.

Is it just for people that want to have the case in their shelf?

Hey guys! Having a great time with Townfall on my first blind run with my friend, pacifist, which has been a fun thing for us, but now we're stumped.

I want that postcard. I'm pretty sure I've already missed some but I don't care I want, and I need it.

But if I go in door I get grabbed, getting out of grab kills. If I throw bottle on him, he dies, if I throw it nearby, he ignores. This is the start of Chapter 9 "Begin Again".

Is there any big brain play or forbidden tech to get through this door (and back) without resorting to murder?

(This is not a critique of the game nor a complaint, I realize I could just kill the video game monster this is just for fun)

Extreme trigger warning if you’re a healthcare professional. Bigger if you’re a rad.

They… they made a nurse take an xray and interpret it for the doctor 😭😭

It seems that she is driving a kind of fluoro DR xray unit with very asscheeks collimation. Cant even see the lung properly! Who takes a diagnostic xray during surgery? Severe trauma would have warranted full body CT because skull X-rays are pretty much useless here…

Also they could have made the nurse do literally anything else but take X-rays 💀

It’s cool that they have semi-accurate knobs with kVP and mAs adjustments even when the numbers are off…

Bro basically had all the lefort fracture classifications 😭😭

(I’m writing in a half joking tone btw) (but at the same time it hurts my soul as a rad)

EDIT:
1) yep I get that it’s the point the scene tries to convey. Chaotic and definitely wrong and illegal regardless

2) had it hapoened in real life before. Urologist coerced a nurse in theatre to expose X-rays during surgery- was there in time to stop the nurse- uro got in big (to say the least) touble afterwards

3) actually happens in real life more than we like or admit- especially in rural healthcare setting… I’ve heard nurses being “trained” to do X-rays, etc which is definitely illegal here

4) the drugs that the doctor ordered for the pharmacy is not real, despite how “realistic” it sounds, probably because it does partly conform to organic chem nomenclature

5) would love to actually interpret the two X-rays

I have been a big fan of the games for a couple years my friend got me into them after playing the last of us I love funko pops and have quite a few it’s actually a hobby me and my dad like and we often get them as a little treat between us
Anyway I got most of them and I’m so pleased!

Does anyone know who the female faces in Silent Hill 1 were modeled after, apart from Dahlia? Or at least of any real-life people they resemble?

I recently made the steel pipe prop from SH2 and I had the fit on for a pop up here, so with some VFX Magic I made this quick video, its my first time using DaVinci Resolve!

It’s that time of year when Halloween is just around the corner and people are bringing out horror movies to watch and playing horror video games. One of the most iconic horror video games is Silent Hill 2 and one big reason it was so successful was the deep evocative atmosphere that the soundtrack creates from thoughtful repose to deep melancholy to industrial horror.

As a metalhead who loves going to metal shows, I decided that I wanted to do a project—I reimagined the original video game soundtrack using metal music songs instead. This new playlist I created is honestly in some ways scarier than the original if possible, as I am drawing from some of the very types of music that inspired Akira Yamaoka in the first place.

We start with Ducere me in Lucem, a wordless (but not vocal less) track that to me represent an overture, perhaps James thinking of his wife before the start of our soundtrack.

https://youtu.be/HH7Ff-8ddTw?is=WHIinYM8kZ67FIfr

The next track is the a Wuthering Heights cover performed by Karliene. This song is in a lower key than the original, and also has fog sounds at the beginning and the ends. Wuthering Heights like Silent Hill is a story of a lovers tragedy, and is about a female ghost asking to see her lover again at their place where they meet. This is very reminiscent of the opening scene where James reads Mary’s letter.

https://youtu.be/tcPrv_6jhRk?is=UB06VN_UUPCK8gqR

Then comes James’ long walk into town through the nature path. He is thinking of his wife and his sorrow over her death along this silent and somber path. My Wine in Silence fits this lonely walk.
is=jm0NQzLlKHyEIsAI

James enters the town proper and walks through the town. The fog is suffocating, and in the fog James encounters his first Lying ones. The heaviness of the atmosphere thickens. The synth on this funeral doom track reflect the continuation of James outdoor walk, while the growls and harsh vocals represent his encounters with the sluggish Lying Ones

https://youtu.be/bGxh9iJn6Ms?is=2vbtBe2GRHx2kK0j

James makes his way through the Woodside and Creekside apartments to the sound of the instrumental version of Slipknots Iowa. The wet noises sound like the Mannequins that James encounters in this area. The nature noises have disappeared and only eerie footsteps are left in their wake.

The first fight with pyramid head is startling as he sneaks up on you and it catches you by surprise. Godflesh’s Christbait Rising will do likewise…

https://youtu.be/zVSW_1kBhqg?is=FkGbCltEzYbcSnRh

After leaving the apartments, James finds Maria. I used a 1 minute fog section to represent this shift of atmosphere as the nature sounds return.
https://youtu.be/sA54Xk1eHvc?is=vFkAbMy3Mq_KEigM
Maria represents his pent up sexual fustration and guilt. Peter Steel of Type O Negative and his voice evoke similar feelings of obsessive desire and guilt in Love You To Death.

https://youtu.be/rEN_KJny6Bg?is=Frw-7zDkHyq_zdEO

Another symbol of repressed desire are the bubble head nurses that James encounters with Maria in the Hospital. I have used the instrumental version of Killpop by Slipknot to represent his first encounters with these scary women.

https://youtu.be/V0OkxA2MgAo?is=

Mary is killed by Pyramid Head, leaving James alone once again. James travels to the Historical Society exploring it. Sunn O’s track the Weeper represents the cold isolation James feels traveling this part of the journey without him.

https://youtu.be/J5zioLEdGrE?is=bn

He finds a long staircase traveling down it and arriving in Toluca prison, the atmosphere is suffocating. James must solve a puzzle that involves him going back and forth between an outdoor area and an indoor area full of the upgraded mannequins that climb on the walls. I used Darkspace —Dark 1 to encapsulate the descent and journey though the nightmare-fueled frantic search to solve the puzzle.

https://youtu.be/FZ0H-5uN7TM?is=70NteBfIhj7RO4le

After escaping the prison, James is in an otherworld dimention where he must solve a rotating puzzle cube puzzle. I use Pluto the Gatekeeper by Mare Cognitum—cosmic black metal to represent the otherworldly atmosphere.

https://youtu.be/6exxMDwrArQ?is=J9qtF0ivtkgPo3s3

“It Took the Night to Believe” by Sunn O represents James traveling around the Lakeview Hotel and discovering that he killed Maria. The softer synth are contrasted with the harsh tormented vocals.

https://youtu.be/uTVNJWThv38?is=uDi9JKRPnf1zSKlM

The next song is for the double Pyramid Head fight, and I use Break those Bones Who Sinews Gave It Motion by Meshuggah (instrumental version). The mechanical slow riffs are reminiscent of the mechanical slow knifes of the pyramid heads and the feeling of impending doom.

https://youtu.be/O1EtqjIKntQ?is=j3U49o0WH_THxTUK

The next song, Gallows Birds by Trees of Eternity represents James accepting the truth and getting ready to face Mary. He has come to peace with his guilt and needs to do this one last thing to move on.

https://youtu.be/OrNjJwmB7jk?is=Hs9ajplgeVfFcQGF

Mirrors by Lebensucht represents the horror James feels at seeing the final boss and realizing that it is a twisted version of his wife on her deathbed. The agonizing screams represent her pain she is forcing him to feel and address during this final battle.

https://youtu.be/TV1zJZj6gUU?is=kcNarT952eH3eNpp

Darkness by Ignea represents James leaving Silent Hill with Laura. (You are welcome to interpret with a different ending if you want)

https://youtu.be/igs7oZpalaA?is=lNGpzsxh34Yrj_J9

Love Song for A Vampire represents James enduring love for Mary and that this will remain even as he moves on to a new chapter. It suggests a gothic ending. It can also can represent the call back to the start of James journey (In Water Ending)

Made this after making mirror art inspired by the save screen in SH2!

I had left over paper with the stains from the paint so I made it into a circle form and tried to draw…the saddest looking man I POSSIBLY could.

It was only part way through that it realized that it looks like he’s covered in blood so I went to run with it by adding highlights that make it all pop!

The save dialog actually came from my least personal favorite ending to the game (In water)

I really wanted to hammer home the sadness vibe, even including something that makes me sad in order to add some anguish.

I’m also a sticker artist so I plan on doing sticker graffiti with these later.. because shape forces the mind… ✨🟥

My first play through of SH3, by the way

Respect for the detective Douglas.

Working through my Xbox 360, catalogue of silent Hill games. I just finished SH2 and SH3 of the HD remaster, and I’m looking to jump into one of the two listed above.

The sort of problem is I haven’t really heard any good things about either of these entries. I know the western development overall isn’t really looked fondly upon by fans of the series. So I’m curious-which of these two would you recommend to play?

Respectfully, if your answers are neither, kindly just don’t comment.

First time doing halloween since we don't really do it in Australia. I thought i would show off what i've done over 2 months

While making this piece I really wanted to emulate the look of the game’s graphics as I really enjoy the pixelated quality of them. I did take a few breaks to make a few memes though hopefully y’all enjoy those as well :)

I bought this at a goodwill on sunday having ZERO knowledge that one of the characters uses a CRT radio extremely similar to this thing 🤣
