Image
It was announced two years ago that filmmaker Christophe Gans would return to the Silent Hill franchise with the appropriately titled Return to Silent Hill, an adaptation of Silent Hill 2. While that sounds exciting, Bloober Team’s video game remake that was released last month serves as a potent reminder that translating this revered game to screen is an exceedingly tricky task.

The filmmaker adapted the original 1999 video game with 2006’s Silent Hill that mostly adhered to the original game’s plot, remixing a few details for its film adaptation, like swapping out the game’s protagonist of Harry Mason for Radha Mitchell’s Rose Da Silva. It also included the appearance of the franchise’s most iconic monster, Pyramid Head.
