[Wizard]

Taking the plot line from the first game with elements from of the others, Brotherhood of the Wolf director, Christophe Gans, is at the helm with music composed by none other then Akira Yamaoka, music composer for the Silent Hill video games.

 

Teaser (WMV)

 

Sony is also having a poster making contest for the movie, sadly it is only open too U.S. residents only.

 

Offical Website | Currently going under rating process. Expected to be R for Silent Hill's nature of imagery, violence and (undertone of) sexuality.

hmmm...somewhat interesting

I really hope they don't flock this one up like most game to movie transitions.

Very interesting. Has a Silent Hill 1/3 feel to it.

I bet the sequel to this movie will be based on SH3

I wonder, since I'm hearing the whole Harry Mason dynamic is gone. Would it have been so much harder to have a guy called Harry instead of some woman called Rose?

Hmmm guaranteed to be CRAP. Resident Evil movies were garbage, and personally I feel the Silent Hill games are just Resident Evil with different looking crap.

Konami worked with him. They don't want it to be butchered. Like say, Bloodrayne.

Yeah, the movie doesn't really tie to any SH games directly. It just uses an assload of references (not necessarily storyline-wise).

This looks part CG... but I have a feeling it's complete cg just like the first time I saw a advent children trailor...

Back the basics. Uses the first game as the central plot, recovery of his/her child. Include references to other games such as Pyramid Heads and Demons. Add a little Jacob's Ladder and 13 and you get Silent Hill.
