WHAT I CARE TO SEE
By Stephane Morrell

SILENT HILL

What can be said about Video Game based movies that hasn't been said already. Well a lot of that wouldn't apply to Silent Hill. Granted much of the bizarre plot might feel more at home to someone who has played the games. But the reality of it is that the games plot is just as weird.

The story is about a little girl who keeps having sleepwalking dreams of a place called Silent Hill. Her parents look it up and the mother decides to take her there. But on the way, they get into a car crash, and find themselves in a largely unihabited town. But it's not completely uninhabited. There are weird creatures about, and the whole town seems almost "otherwordly".

I found this very entertaining, and with lots of creep-out effects. What's a great thing to note is that most of the "monsters" are not CGI but actually people in latex. You'll see why that's freaky when you see the movie.
