Silent Hill: Revelation

Malta Independent Thursday, 6 December 2012, 08:08 Last update: about 11 years ago

For years, Heather Mason and her father Harry have been on the run, one step ahead of dangerous forces she does not understand. Now, on the eve of her 18th birthday, plagued by terrifying nightmares and her father’s disappearance, Heather discovers she is not who she thinks she is. The revelation leads her deep into a demonic world that threatens to trap her in Silent Hill forever.

Silent Hill: Revelation 3D is based on Konami’s acclaimed survival horror video game franchise, but the film takes us beyond a mere adaptation with a storyline ideal for the big screen. Although it is a sequel to the first film (Silent Hill, directed by Christophe Gans in 2006), this new installment stands on its own for new audiences. It will not only provoke shivers but will undoubtedly strike a deep personal chord with many viewers, including those familiar with the Silent Hill world and those just discovering it.

Samuel Hadida produced the film as well as the first Silent Hill film. He has also produced all the Resident Evil films. He notes, “Silent Hill is completely different from any other video games. It is a beautiful piece of art which plays like no other with our feelings and perception. Each gamer experiences something unique: it is about fate, secrets, and our own evil inside. We believe that with Silent Hill: Revelation 3D we are really bringing this same experience to film audiences.”

Silent Hill: Revelation 3D is written and directed by Michael J. Bassett (Solomon Kane, Deathwatch). Alongside original cast members Sean Bean (Lord Of The Rings, Game Of Thrones) and Deborah Kara Unger (The Game, 88 Minutes, The Samaritan) with a special appearance by Radha Mitchell (Man On Fire, The Crazies), the film stars rising talents Adelaide Clemens (X-Men Origins: Wolverine and upcoming The Great Gatsby and No One Lives) and Kit Harington (Game Of Thrones), plus renowned actors like Carrie-Anne Moss (Matrix, Disturbia) and Malcolm McDowell (A Clockwork Orange, The Artist).
