>>341826114
Silent Hill was directly inspired by this movie so yeah.

What a meme movie. It did nothing for me, it was boring.
>>
>>341826114
It's more like Silent Hill is Jacob's Ladder: The Game
>>
>>341826114
Definitely. It was a heavy influence for the game series.

Great movie too aside from the ending. The deleted scenes are all really good I'm not sure why they removed them. The one with the doctor giving him the medicine is especially good.

I cannot find a movie that has a similar sense of dread and strangeness to it. SH3 is also the only game I've played that somewhat captured the mood. It's those weird transitions from a normal world to a surreal one that really gets me. It's like a horror styled Twin Peaks, but completely without the humor.

>>341826114
No, Silent Hill is basically Silent Hill

Since you are young you won't understand why Jacob's Ladder was supposed to be scary or weird. You will find it very unremarkable and boring

Stalker is has a similar feeling to it.

>>341828728
Honestly I hated the Stalker game. I couldn't play it for more than an hour.

whats it about? Nevermind I'll just go watch the trailer
>>
>>341828309
Angel Heart is pretty similar in tone imo
>>
>>341828778
I meant the movie, Videodrome/early cronenberg in general has a similar sort of dry slow madness. The conversation is another one.
>>
>>341827896

Meh, it's really not one of those movies where knowing the "twist" hurts it. Better luck next time, fag.

This was a great unlicensed Silent Hill movie.
>>
>>341829004
the movie even having the twist hurts it, we spend the whole thing feeling bad for this guy who has lost people who never even existed
>>
>>341829240
Yeah the ending sucks. Would have honestly been better if it just ended with deleted scene where the doctor gives him the cure and he lives his life on. The underlying fear or message would be that things like drugs and hallucinogens can alter someone's perception so much their world fundamentally changes.

>>341829172
I could never get through the first movie. Was just too gory for me.
>>
>>341826114
Silent Hill 2 was Jacob's Ladder: The Game

>you think the ending of jacob's ladder was supposed to provide definite closure on some way

le sigh you le missed le entire le point. you're not supposed to know what is real
>>
>>341829627
Ignoring the obvious bait can you explain why someone would think of the ending as anything, but definite closure?

>guy goes up to heaven with kevin mccallister
>suddenly back in vietnam and he dies

guys what really happened?
>>
>>341830000
>>341829694
you 16 year olds are right there has never been any discussion about the ending of jacob's ladder and if he really died or was ever in vietnam or not even

nevermind, forget i ever said anything.

>decide to watch Session 9 after playing Silent Hill 3 because of pic related
>its total shit
What a letdown.
>>
No, Silent Hill is Jacobs Ladder: The Gamr
>>
>>341830452
Yeah. After playing SH3 I watched Jacob's Ladder and Session 9. While I really liked Jacob's Ladder, Session 9 was an awful film. They had an awesome set to work with, but the story was shit, the cast was terrible, and the "twist" was really really shitty.

Only good scene is the one where the guy afraid of the dark starts running when the lights go out. That scene is awesome.
