Verdict on Silent Hill Revelation
Silent Hill Revelation is the sequel to the popular horror mystery movie. It follows a nearly 18-year-old Sharon as her nightmares have returned. She has spent her life on the run with her father and now they must return to defeat a new threat. However, more nightmares are waiting there for them.
This one does pull away from the pure atmosphere the first one created. However, it makes up by bringing a host of different nightmare creatures from the games. Despite having excellent creatures, we have the strange story decision to return knowing the dangers. The movie might not have as tight of a story, but it still ends up being one of the better video game movies.
Final Thoughts – Silent Hill Revelation is a fun horror sequel, with amazing nightmare creatures.
