So I've watched this new trailer and wanted to review it in some sort of way.
As I must say I'm following news from this movie ever since the first movie came out (2006).
I'm a really big fan of Silent hill I've played the first one right when it came out in 1999 when I was 8 years old, it left me very shocked and it would take some several years to pick up all the courage and skills to play it out. My father helped me with playing it for when the game became to intense. After finishing SH1, SH2,3 and 4 were already released so I bought the collection box. (most games after sh4 (from wich I played origins, homecoming, Shattered Memories, downpour and the arcade game) don't count for me as part of the real series)
So as you can see, Silent Hill has some big values in my life's history and art, so if there's something said or done about Silent Hill, I take it very personnel.
The first information I found about sh revelations was the fact that they were planning to make a sequel from the first movie, but after some time they announced that the plans were canceled cause the writer had a car accident from which I don't remember the whole story.
Later on Michael J. Bassett www.imdb.com/name/nm1068186/ was announced to be the writer/director of the sequel.
I've seen some other works of M. Basset which are pretty good, such as Solomon Kane and Deathwatch.
The first photo's that came online of silent hill revelations were some set photos' from the town and some props, and later there came some photo's of the carnival.
Though these pictures looked ok, they didn't reveal much about the over look of the movie except that pyramid head was playing in this movie as well.
Recently there was a short clip released featuring nurses.
Whit this information i was first kind of disappointed cause I feared for an abuse of pyramid head and nurses.
Today I watched the trailer:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMWrZm…;
And I must say from the looks of it they did a good job.
I can hear many other fans saying stuff like: that's not how it went in the game, they did this and that wrong,...
But relax, its a movie adaptation of SH3 and a sequel to the first movie. It's not wrong to change elements of the story or visual aspects or even fundamental facts. If you want SH3 in a movie format go watch the walkthrough.
The movie is made for a new audience, and the fanbase of the first movie as well as the silent hill game fans. In order to please these 3 groups you have to make changes.
As What I have to say about the trailer itself:
though it looked like a teenage horror movie the first minute, it looks like it really has a great silent hill feeling. It revolves more about the cult from the first movie, but hey, Silent Hill 3 also revolves around this "cult", in SH1 "the cult" was also involved but not that much in the foreground, SH2 had some hints to it but no direct links to persons in this "cult".
The otherworld as seen in the trailer had much fire to give it a hellish look and is quite different from the first film.
There are also many light elements in this world like flickering lights, stepping away from the original only one light coming from a flashlight.
What I remarked was that this world looks much more like the hospital scene from Jacob's ladder: www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXXbIO…;
which in its way was a great inspiration for the SH series, so I must say that the director really knows for a big part what silent hill is about.
I would say much more things about what I'd think about this and other stuff, but since this post is already this long I shall leave it by this.

Back again
Hello, I'm back again, posting new works and making new music,
I'm feeling fine, things are going the good way for me.
I'll try to check every day my DA account, but most of the time I'll be on FB and my FB page: https://www.facebook.com/TheartofAB
I'll try to make everyday something new (music or artwork), if I'm not to busy with hanging around with my friends.

Away for a long time
I've been away for a long time and I will be unable to post, react, chat,...
The reason why I'm away is for a personal reason. I won't talk about it in this journal, for those who really want to know it, I might explain it in a personal note.
I'm doing quite fine, but I still have some worries, it will be a question of time before I'll be active on DA.
My excuses to everyone who send messages to me in the past 6 months.
I didn't make much artwork but I did make some music for those who are interested:
yourlisten.com/abstracktblack (most tracks) or https://soundcloud.com/abstracktblack (just a few tracks)
you can also find me on FB: https://w
Preparing for Halloween
Still busy at the moment, making some more Halloween stuff, a bit of painting, making music,socializing and other regular life stuff that takes lots of time.
I'm glad with all the reactions I got on my Halloween make-up tests and all the views. I never thought that it would become my most viewed, favorited, and commented work so far. But I'll try to make some more effects if I can find some time.
Anyway Wednesday it's going to be the day, I'll be going to the vampire party where there will be a costume contest. I'm not going for the winning but I'll guess I'll get some positive reactions on my work.
I got this post from a DA friend, normal
Very busy again...
I've been very busy lately, which results in a lack of artwork and neglecting my DA account.
Life is having it's up's and downs as usual, but at least it's going into some direction.
I'll try to find some spare time and just hope it will congregate with my more creative moments, instead of just simple doodles and random stuff.
Since it's almost Halloween, I'll probably will make a costume or some attributes or at least do some make-up, so within a small period some new pictures may appear on my account, if I don't forget to grab my camera and take some pictures.

i watched silent hill revelation last saturday and personally i thought it was pretty damn good. i'm a huge fan of the series as well and i think it followed silent hill 3's story quite well. Adelaide Clemens played heather's character very well in my opinion. she had both her look and personality that she had in the game
