Please no.  Just... no.

The first two were bad enough, and the writer-director is the same hack behind the first one.  Just take the pen away from Christophe Gans already.

Lock him in a small room and don't let him near anything that he can write with...

From that trailer, it looks like audiences will be asking for Refunds for Silent Hill.

It seems almost prophetic that YouTube's recommendation bar that pops up at the end of that trailer has Doom: Annihilation on it.

So this one is out now... and it seems like I was right that audiences were going to be asking for Refunds for Silent Hill.

Critics are absolutely MURDERING it.

Quote

"“Return to Silent Hill” aims for a similar uncanniness — sometimes the actors look like digital doubles — but the result is less phantom realm, more jumbled assembly of cutscenes." - NYT

"Goofy and low-rent, it’s a dire look at what happens when you can’t leave the past behind—whether you’re a horror game character or a video game movie filmmaker." - AV Club

"It turns out, making a horror movie where the hero is more casually curious (or oblivious) than scared is a tricky proposition." Guardian

"It shouldn’t work, and it doesn’t a lot of the time" - Seattle Times

"This powerful survival horror story has been turned into an ugly, laughable adaptation that proves that maybe we should’ve never gone back to Silent Hill." - Collider

 

It's currently rocking a 15% critic score and 30% audience score on RT.

I'm gonna go see it Monday night to see how bad bad really is.

I don’t know if that’s a positive review or negative, but sorta trying to be nice. It’s hilarious either way
