In an interview with IGN, director Christophe Gans, who helmed the 2006 adaptation of Silent Hill, revealed plot details for the new film based on the popular game franchise.
“Inspired by the game ‘Silent Hill 2’, [o novo filme] will tell the story of a young man who returns to Silent Hill, where he met a great love… but he ends up encountering a real nightmare. In the first film, we explored the universe of this small town, completely surrounded by fog, as if trapped in ‘The Twilight Zone’. But in the second game, the creators changed the rules. We return to Silent Hill, which is still the same town, but we discover a strange and different world through the new protagonist’s point of view.”
He adds: “The new film will have a psychological horror tone, even if we will find the same creatures and we will have horror scenes. However, the greatest terror will always reside within ourselves.
The film is slated for release in 2024.
