Pining for Pixels # 75 - At the Movies: Silent Hill

Red Rooster

Welcome to the Pining For Pixels podcast! This is my video game variety show podcast, part of the Red Rooster's Gaming Coop network where I talk gaming and gaming culture every week. Each episode will feature a subject or theme that interests me, and I will speak about what is on my mind in the world of video games!

This week is another entry in the At the Movies segment. With the release of the much anticipated Silent Hill 2 Remake this week, I thought it was a good time to look back on the two feature film entries that this series was lucky to get. After the success of the Resident Evil films, Silent Hill was given to green light to get its silver screen debut. The results are mixed on the film franchise overall, but that first entry left a real impression on movie-goers. In the 18 years since the original film release, we have had a slew of other video game to movie adaptations, and more importantly, critically & commercially successful ones too. How does Silent Hill hold up in retrospect? Tune in to hear how these movies have held up, just in time for the Halloween season!
