Movies based on video games suck. Everybody knows that, right? Well, apparently nobody told Christophe Gans and Roger Avary, as back in 2006 the director and writer produced a pretty faithful and scary adaptation of the Silent Hill video game horror series.
Now, 6 years later, writer-director Michael J. Bassett is hoping to once again have us crapping our pants at guys wearing Egyptian monuments on their heads.
I’ve found that horror movie trailers have a habit of showing lots of creepy and scary looking stuff, but unfortunately not too much of the moments between the scares, and those are often what makes or breaks these movies. This trailer also doesn’t give us too many of those, so I can’t get a proper feel quite yet for whether or not this is a worthy sequel, but I what I can say for certainty is that there will certainly be a whole lot of nightmare fuel on display here.
What’s that? Some of the creepy parts were on screen to quickly for you to be truly unnerved? Oh, don’t worry. Here are 15 screenshots for you to not unsee ever again.
Synopsis:
Heather Mason (Adelaide Clemens) and her father (Sean Bean) have been on the run, always one step ahead of dangerous forces that she doesn’t fully understand. Now on the eve of her 18th birthday, plagued by horrific nightmares and the disappearance of her father, Heather discovers she’s not who she thinks she is. The revelation leads her deeper into a demonic world that threatens to trap her forever.

I think the trailer gives too much away… I can’t wait for this movie, although I doubt I’ll watch it in 3D. I hate 3D movies.

Trying to work out how this one fits with the first movie, given how its predecessor ended, and given that Sean Bean seems to be playing the same character as before.
