A bunch of grown ups who think they are filmmakers, took a lantern, a radio, some could-b-worst actors, somebody's dv cam,a and made what they call a Silent Hill Preview. First of all... kids, don't try this at home. Silent Hill, is one of the most terrifyng video game sagas ever. Its not just a hack and slash game, no matter what some people may think, it has nothing to do with the killemall style of Resident Evil. Silent hill its a game about yourself, your own deep fears, you most intimate pain. And this people, not only made a crap of it, they also think God gave them the rite to decide who can or cant be a filmmaker. I also took the quiz on their page... i found it stupid and very irritating, eve insulting. But i guess thats why they call themselves "mean-times"... it was very mean from them, just daring to make this trailer. As i said in the title... if you give me this, and tell me a bunch of junior high kids made it, then its fine. But a bunch of "professionals"? i don't think so.
Anyone who watches this "preview" and can review it seriously needs to stop struggling so hard with LIVING and learn to enjoy a good laugh. Obviously this wasn't a serious attempt to portray the Silent Hill series. Some of the best parts about Silent Hill (1 - 4) were the weird little things on which gamers can mock so easily. Including hole-jumping and paranoid flashlight-waving (body-turning). Any REAL fan would also remember the many UFO endings, in which the creators THEMSELVES mock many of the aspects of the game. People, stop being so uptight, and enjoy the insider humor for what it is: Cheesy Horror Game Fun. This was a great, hilarious "trailer," loaded with inside jokes. Kudos to the creators, and the rest of you, choke on a steel pipe!
This was actually an innovative take on the Silent Hill Franchise. I've been an avid fan since the first game and found this trailer entertaining, humorous, and indicative of the series. There are many direct references to SH2, and the use of the SH3 music added that feeling of authenticity. With a big budget this crew could probably do something amazing...
I see that some people didn't enjoy this film as much as I did, and to them I extend a big "lighten up". This piece is meant to be tongue in cheek while still adhering to the spirit of the SH world. I absolutely love the franchise that is SH, but if you can't find humor in it, and in yourself just a little bit, then you're taking life as a whole way to seriously. After all, even Konami has jokes running throughout the games (*cough* UFO ending *cough*)
This is a quick and entertaining piece, and while may not be as enjoyable to non SH fans, any one who likes the series should check it out. And whether you love it or hate it, anything that evokes some sort of emotion is good...right?
check this out.

What the hell is this. As a huge Silent Hill fan, I find myself with the urge to find the retards responsible for this and beat them senseless. Do yourself a favor, and just take the 3 minutes of your life it takes to watch this and drive to your local game store and buy the game instead. And if you own the game, then go get the UFO ending. Seriously, because for how silly that ending is, it is ten thousand times better than this "Unauthorized trailer". Honestly, this guy is such a dumbass, he could have at least found some real actors because these guys seem to occupied by the coke they are probably gonna buy after they are dumb filming this thing. So basically, don't even look at this, at all, EVER. Unless you want a good laugh or feel like being totally appalled. Then by all means, please watch it. Disregard everything I just wrote.
Oh Christ, I had to register just to point out how terrible this is. Anyone that doesn't know what Silent Hill is, PLEASE don't take this as any indication.
Silent Hill is an extremely deep, psychological and artistic work that manages to meld several contrasting elements together to penetrate the mind of the player/watcher, all based around the two base human subjects: Sex, and Death (as mentioned in the DVD extra in Silent Hill 2). This drivel on the other hand, is soulless, void of atmosphere and overall, shallow trash. How it is they mustered the pretension and undeserved courage to label this under the Silent Hill banner is beyond me, but whatever the reason, they're not worthy.
Of the countless words I could (or couldn't as regulations dictate) use to describe this sin against art, I think the most appropriate is:
TALENTLESS.
