Wizard Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 (edited) How do you think pyramid head will come into this movie? I jumped back when I saw the small glimpse of him in the trailer.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Well, in SH2, it represented James' inner sexual desires (see it raping one of those manniquins ) and violent tendencies (trying to kill everyone, specifically you). In the movie it will either represent the lead character's;A) Violent Desires or B ) Some other primal force.

Wizard Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Yeah, there was this big, non-IQ dropping discussion about SH2's themes a while back on Gamefaqs. Pyramid Head is supposedly James' inner desires manifesting it self into some sort of horror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weirdy Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Cool has there been anything analytical like that concerning SH1 and SH3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wizard Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Of course, theres meen numerious disucssions into what themes are in each game. All however, have the basis of personal, personaified purgatory, in which your horrors and regets take shape because of your lack of innocense (Example: That little girl in one of the SH games that isn't Harry's daughter, she hasn't been tainted yet, which in this case, her innocense - because she is still only a child and thus appears normal and un-aware of Silent Hill's montrousities and dense fog).

Agozer Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Silent Hills have always been about players finding the underlying analysis of why the main character experiences the sight and sounds of Silent Hill the way he/she does. A person's motives, inner self etc. (James' sexual frustrations, Heather's past, Valtiel, Pyramid Head, The Otherworld, Eddie's mania etc. etc.) + the inner purgatory motif that the town brings forth are referred to in each game numerous times as the story progresses. Not a lot of players realize the deeper psychological aspects of the games, and just treat them as survival horror games with flocked up plots that all have one thing in common - namely the town of Silent Hill. To make it fairly simple, Silent Hill personifies each individual's dark secrets, fears and whatnot, and disfigures them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucandrake Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Omg, listening to the sh main theme, reminds me of the first game, maybe I should re-play it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elazul Yagami Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Sh on a basic level is a nightmare simulator. on a deeper level, it's all that agozer and k'dash have said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
