Where is the plot?
And what the hell is Silent Hill?? Is it another dimension? Is it the afterlife? What the hell is it?
shareYes. There are three dimensions Day/Fog/Dark and they function as Earth/Purgatory/Inferno.
shareIt's just not understandable.
sharewhy not? Does it help if we say the 3 dimensions symbolize Heaven/Purgatory/Hell?
shareYes it does, I didn't even think about that, I've been reading the game stories for clues and nothing makes sense really, also, what would be heaven? nothing in there seems heavenly.,
shareThe regular day world 'symbolizes' [I hate that] Edenic perfection in the scene where Rose and Sharon are lounging in the field.
The dimensional scene was at the school where Rose and Sean Bean are in the same location but cannot see each other. That's the primary illustration that Silent Hill exists in a different world. Later, the drive home at the end reveals that it not just the town but an entire universe where Dark Alessa resides.
The characters enter grey Silent Hill world then they never leave and don't have a real life. So I say that makes it the afterlife of the film. But the "official canon" says it is merely an alternate dimension that happens to symbolize the afterlife.
That doesn't make sense because that scene was outside of Silent Hill.
shareWhich scene?
sharewhen they are in the three.
shareAre you asking about the end when everybody is back at home?
shareNo, you said that heaven was reality? are you talking about when they were in the tree at the beginning?
shareOh yeah. Rose&Sharon are leaning against the tree and the peaceful animal pics we have an perfect image of Eden. No they aren't in an alternate heavenly reality. The "Day World" is the normal living world.
shareand then what is heaven?
shareHeaven is the return to innocence and living in a pure Edenic state.
shareand when is that manifested in silent hill?
shareFace it, you don't get it, & you never will... Go back to talking about Madonna & Disney movies like you have done so well in the past.
Epic cash grabs made for the lowest common denominator, the rest need not apply...share
Only in that brief scene under the tree. Silent Hill for the most part follows the rules of a Greek Tragedy, the "high" is only in the first act to set up the fall.
