Editing Silent Hill (section)

==Silent Hill Movies==
The first movie followed most of the plot of the first game, although with Dahlia split between an insane cult leader and an insane broken homeless woman who are sisters while good Cheryl and evil Cheryl (renamed Sharon for no apparent reason) were far more separate entities. In the ending, evil Cheryl/Sharon takes control of the town Dark World to torture and kill the inhabitants of Silent Hill involved in her sacrifice while good Cheryl/Sharon is trapped in the fog of the Otherworld, which extends worldwide now as the protagonist is able to return home in another dimension from the one her husband exists in. The sequel starts to follow the plot of Silent Hill 3, but instead veers off the rails like a Uwe Boll movie into a disaster of a plot with too many screwups to list in a brief manner. 

Although the first movie was a grade above arguably all other video game movies ever produced, it was hindered by executive decisions like making the protagonist a woman because "the audience can't relate to a father searching for his missing daughter like they would a mother in the same situation", making Alessa's trauma partially come from being raped by the elementary school janitor, reusing all the monsters from Silent Hill 2 without any symbolic meaning because they were more iconic, and a single ambiguous ending. 
The sequel was a desperate cash grab, made in 3D which was underused and had an extremely limited budget to maximize profit off the trust in quality the first movie had inspired among the community. It attempted to mix the fad of movies like Hunger Games and Twilight to create a faux-dramatic and awkward teenage romance rebellion plot and also cast Kit Harington in a blatant attempt to piggyback off his rising ''[[A Song of Ice and Fire|Game of Thrones]]'' fame. Most of the visual effects were in the trailer, leaving the audience with a long and very badly paced movie.

As mentioned previously, there is now a sequel movie on the way from the same director who made the first one, so hopefully he can elevate the material a bit above what we got in ''Revelations''.
