Storyline

Sharon Da Silva believes that she is on the run with her adoptive father because he killed a man in self-defense when she was young. Now on the eve of her 18th birthday, living under the alias of Heather Mason, plagued by horrific nightmares and the disappearance of her father, Sharon discovers he has been protecting her from a religious cult called the Order of Valtiel. The revelation leads her deeper into a demonic world that threatens to trap her forever in a place known as Silent Hill. Written by Anonymous

Trivia

Despite claims to the contrary made by writer/director Michael J. Bassett, Silent Hill: Revelation has been noted as exhibiting multiple retcons and continuity mistakes in relation to the original Silent Hill. Many of these errors occurred due to Bassett trying to force the film series to more closely match the canon of the games, while others seem to have no real reason for being there. However, Bassett stated multiple times before the film's release that it would not change anything in the first film's continuity, and would be a "sequel first, adaptation second". See more »

Goofs

It is shown in the original Silent Hill that there are three versions of Alessa: a badly burned adult woman, a child containing her good side (Sharon), and a child containing her dark side (Dark Alessa). Revelation makes no reference to Alessa's adult form at all, and strongly implies that Dark Alessa is the one controlling everything in the town, leading to the implication that Alessa's adult form may not exist in the second film's canon. The script furthers this theory, showing Alessa's physical body becoming Dark Alessa during the fire, as well as several scenes of Dark Alessa shifting into Alessa's burned form. See more »

Didn't feel like watching a movie. I don't know what it is.
30 January 2013 | by icanisaSee all my reviews

Now I'm okay with movies that didn't follow exactly like the original plot from games, books, etc like the first Silent Hill movie, I think it is still fine. But this one is just BAD. I'm not sure what I was watching but I didn't feel like I was watching a full movie. It just lack of many things. Maybe it's too short, maybe Silent Hill 3 is just not suitable to be made into a movie because the story is all about Heather trying to find the truth about herself, and since we already knew that at the beginning, what is there to tell anymore? And we as an audience already knew how her father is doing, only Heather didn't know, again there's nothing to look forward too. We just merely watching Heather going from point A to B and nothing else. It is that dull and plain.

And the horror? the movie is trying too hard to be creepy. What's with all the pointless close up of meat cutting and bloody mouthful eating. I don't know it just didn't work for me.
