Pictures of New Silent Hill Movie Show Off Old Monsters and New Faces
Logan Westbrook | 29 Jun 2011 8:28 am
The movie tells the story of Silent Hill 3, but apparently not exactly the same way.
A fresh batch of images from the set of Silent Hill: Revelations 3D, a sequel to 2006's Silent Hill movie, has revealed some of what we can expect in the upcoming film. Not only are a there some old hands returning, like the faceless nurse monsters, there's also at least one brand new character that's never been seen in the Silent Hill franchise before.
The movie is loosely based on Silent Hill 3, starring Adelaide Clemens as Heather Mason and Sean Bean as Chris Da Silva/Harry Mason. Much like the game, Heather discovers that she's not who she thought she was, and this revelation leads her to the cursed town of Silent Hill. Radha Mitchell and Deborah Kara Unger, who played Rose Da Silva and Dahlia Gillespie in the first movie respectively, will also appear in the Revelations.
In terms of new faces, Carrie Anne Moss, probably best known for playing Trinity in the Matrix movies, will play cult leader Claudia Wolf, who - as you can see from the pictures - has a certain fondness for wearing white. Malcolm McDowell, who sadly doesn't appear in the pictures, will play Leonard Wolf, Claudia's father, and Kit Harrington, who played Jon Snow in HBO's Game of Thrones will play Vincent.
There's also at least one completely new character, in the form of Suki. Nothing is known about the character, except that she is played by model Heather Marks. Of course, it's not the first time a Silent Hill movie has featured new characters: the first film's protagonist had never appeared in any of the games and was created expressly for the movie. As yet, there's no information about what her role in the movie will be.
The first Silent Hill movie was arguably one of the best videogame adaptations in recent years, even if it wasn't one of the most faithful, so hopefully the sequel will be of a similar calibre. The fact that it's going to be in 3D doesn't inspire a huge amount of confidence, but it doesn't necessarily mean that it will be a bad movie.
Silent Hill: Revelations 3D is set to hit theaters some time next year.

Set Images from SILENT HILL: REVELATION 3D
by Dave Trumbore Posted:June 28th, 2011 at 6:11 pm
Based on the fan-favorite video game franchise, 2006’s Silent Hill was panned by critics and never made a profit from domestic sales. However, reaching nearly $100 million in sales internationally and making Box Office Mojo’s Top 10 video game adaptations was apparently enough to elicit a sequel. Silent Hill: Revelation 3D creeped us out a couple of months ago with some carnival-themed set pieces.
Today we have some new images from the set, ones that take a closer look at some of our favorite characters and monsters. Sharp-eyed viewers among you might be able to spot Carrie-Anne Moss (The Matrix) looking creepier than I’ve ever seen her before. Hit the jump to check out the photos.
While Silent Hill introduced audiences to acid-spitting monsters, sexy undead nurses and the flesh-ripping Pyramid Head, fans of the franchise will see a few more familiar names and faces. Carrie-Anne Moss will play Claudia Wolf and you can tell from the pictures that her creepiness will rival return cast member Deborah Kara Unger’s (Dahlia). The photo with producer Don Carmody sitting on a throne introduces what appears to be the character Valtiel [don’t click if you don’t want a minor spoiler]. Though it’s just a statue, he could easily be the fan-favorite of this film, much like Pyramid Head was in the last one. While I normally avoid 3D movies because of their low quality and extra cost, I’ll be sure to see this one, even with the increased probability of crapping my pants.
Silent Hill: Revelation 3D will reunite former Silent Hill cast members Sean Bean, Deborah Kara Unger and Radha Mitchell resuming their previous roles. Newcomers to the series include Kit Harrington (Game of Thrones), Malcolm McDowell, Carrie-Anne Moss, Heather Marks and Adelaide Clemens. The sequel is scheduled for release some time in 2012, so until then, check back here for updates.
Here’s the synopsis for Silent Hill: Revelation 3D:
For years, Heather Mason (Clemens) and her father have been on the run, always one step ahead of dangerous forces that she doesn’t fully understand. Now on the eve of her 18th birthday, plagued by terrifying nightmares and the disappearance of her father, Heather discovers she’s not who she thinks she is. The revelation leads her deeper into a demonic world that threatens to trap her in Silent Hill forever.
