Silent Hill: Revelation (2012)

Starring: Adelaide Clemens, Kit Harrington, Sean Bean, Malcom McDowell, Radha Mitchell, Deborah Kara Unger
Director: Michael J. Bassett

Premise:
After her father disappears a girl must go to the ghost town of Silent Hill to find him, where an evil society awaits her.

My Take:
I saw this movie in the theater in 3D and it made for some cool effects. Also really dug the kickass creatures.
The story uses, at some point, all the main characters from the original movie which makes for a seamless transition to the sequel. I never played the game so I no idea of the story going in and I was pleasantly surprised. However, the ending is a tad weak compared to the rest of the movie.

Rating: In the middle
