The good folks over at Latino Review have put up the official 1 sheet for the upcoming latest video game-to-movie adaptation “Silent Hill“. To see a larger version of the Silent Hill poster you can go here.
They’re synopsis for Silent Hill goes something like this:
The eerie and deserted ghost town of SILENT HILL draws a young mother desperate to find a cure for her only child’s illness. Unable to accept the doctor’s diagnosis that her daughter should be permanently institutionalized for psychiatric care, Rose (Radha Mitchell) flees with her child, heading for the abandoned town in search of answers — and ignoring the protests of her husband (Sean Bean). It’s soon clear this place is unlike anywhere she’s ever been. It’s smothered by fog, inhabited by a variety of strange beings and periodically overcome by a living Darkness that literally transforms everything it touches. As Rose searches for her little girl, she begins to learn the history of the strange town and realizes that her daughter is just a pawn in a larger game.
Now don’t get me wrong, there hasn’t been anything wrong with the trailers or images I’ve seen for Silent Hill… but I just can’t get excited about ANY video game movies… because they have all without exception SUCKED no matter how much promise they seemed to have. Nothing will convince me otherwise until one finally proves it on the big screen. Man I’m so jadded.
