Silent Hill: Revelation Blu-ray 3D Release Date, Details and Cover Art!

Posted By: Whitney   December 12th, 2012 | 10:04 am

Silent Hill Revelation 3D will be release on Blu-ray, 3D, DVD and digital download February 12, 2013!

Unfortunately, this press release doesn’t reveal what sort of extras (if any) we can expect…but we do know from Michael J Bassett’s twitter that he did record a director’s commentary for the film back in November! So maybe we will hear details about any extras at a later date? I sure hope so the extras on the Silent Hill 2006 was rather sparse…

Based off the popular cult favorite video game series Silent Hill, comes the action-packed horror Silent Hill: Revelation starring Sean Bean (The Lord of the Rings Trilogy), Carrie-Anne Moss (The Matrix Trilogy), Adelaide Clemens (X-Men Origins: Wolverine) and Malcolm McDowell (Halloween (2007), A Clockwork Orange). Silent Hill: Revelation will be available on 3D Blu-ray™ Combo Pack, Blu-ray™ Combo Pack, DVD, On Demand and Digital Download on February 12, 2013 from Universal Studios Home Entertainment.

Return to a place of insanity and blood-curdling chills in this shocking sequel to one of the most surreal and gruesome horror films ever created. Heather Mason (Adelaide Clemens) and her father (Sean Bean) have always tried to stay one step ahead of the malevolent forces intent on their destruction. But on the eve of her 18th birthday, a dangerous revelation leads her deeper into a demonic world that threatens to trap her in a nightmarish landscape forever. Based on the hugely popular video game series and written and directed by Michael J. Bassett (Deathwatch), it’s a psychological trip into absolute terror unlike anything you’ve ever known.

The Silent Hill: Revelation 3D Blu-ray™ Combo Pack and Blu-ray™ Combo Pack includes Blu-ray™, DVD and Digital Copy of the film compatible with iPhone®, iTunes®, iPad®, iPod®, iPod® touch, Android™ or online retail partners, as well as UltraViolet™.

Silent Hill Rebirth Fan Game Demo Release December 2012!

Posted By: Whitney   November 27th, 2012 | 2:30 pm

With Silent Hill Revelation 3D and Book of Memories release over and done with this past October you may be going into a bit of Silent Hill with drawl! But don’t fear, even though the offerings from Konami and Michael J Bassett to the Silent Hill franchise are out we do have some cool Silent Hill related stuff to look forward to!

Coming this December is a demo of José “JAG_TxelUM” Guzmán’s a free-to-download fan-made game, Silent Hill Rebirth!

This game has been in the works since 2008 and was originally being made with the RPG Maker XP engine (You can see screens of the original on the game’s page) but this format was scrapped in 2010 and is now currently being developed with 3D graphics similar to the games we know and love.

What’s really great about this project is how it’s using the talents of fans from all over the globe. As of 2012 Rebirth has contributors from Australia, Bolivia, USA, Mexico, Brazil, France, Poland, Germany, Italy and The United Kingdom. This team of story/scenario writers, musicians, character/monster designers and programmers collectively are affectionately being called “Fan Team Silent”. 🙂

Game Synopsis (from game cover)

After losing his daughter [in] a car accident. Jacob Graves has gone into a severe self-destructive spiral losing almost everything he had in life. [He unexpectedly receives] a mysterious phone call that reveals the possible location of [the person responsible for his daughter’s death]. Apparently, [this] individual has been lurking for quite some time in a mysterious foggy town called Silent Hill, to which Jacob [immediately drives to] with no other wish than revenge.

The game’s plot sounds pretty interesting and I’m pretty impressed with the scope of this fan project! José Guzmán and his team is really going all out by not only offering a game but also a full soundtrack and eventually a plot analysis and original artwork compilation free for download. I know when the demo is released next month I will be giving it a whirl.

Be sure to stay up to date on the progress over on the project main site: http://silenthilluniverse.weebly.com/—silent-hill-rebirth.html

The Pyramid Head statue packaging is just as awesome as the statue!

Posted By: Whitney   November 7th, 2012 | 9:22 pm

Sorry I’m playing catch up here with the Silent Hill news XD I posted these pics of the Japanese packaging for the upcoming Pyramid Head statue over on the facebook page last week but neglected to post them here as well!

This packaging features a brand new Pyramid Head painting by Silent Hill 2/3 creature designer Masahiro Ito and it also doubles as a display! This box opens up to display a backdrop featuring infamous 9 save point symbol seen both on the original Japanese Silent Hill 2 cover art and right before the final showdown with the big guy!

I really hope we can get the same packaging here when the statue is released here in the US by Toymunkey!

Silent Hill Downpour Xbox 360 Patch is Out!

Posted By: Whitney   October 23rd, 2012 | 11:05 am

So apparently the Downpour Patch for Xbox 360 is out! Rourke from Rely on Horror stumbled upon it this morning when loading a saved game. I don’t have a press release at this time so I don’t know exactly what the patch fixes. What I do know is that it’s supposed to fix the game’s stuttering, saving, and other side quest glitches. Once I have more information I will update this post 🙂

Update 1

Uh oh…

Uh oh…according to Rourke, the patch has severely messed up his game save. Floating Murphy and a locked door that prevents Murphy from entering the showers, at the start of the game. Anyone else getting the same problem or new ones?

This doesn’t sound good, is anyone else have these sorts of problems after downloading the patch?

Update 2

The Xbox update is also available in Europe.

Source (Rely on Horror) Thanks Cj and Rourke! Also header image stolen from RoH 🙂

Update 3

It’s looking like Rourke is the only one having these issues which may be due to his Xbox dying…

Update 4

Got the press release today (10/25/12)

Toymunkey Painted Bubblehead Nurse Photos

Posted By: Whitney   October 23rd, 2012 | 10:50 am

We finally have pictures of the painted Bubblehead Nurse statue from Toymunkey. As with Pyramid Head the paintjob on this is just wonderful. I particularly love the tiny details of the rust spots on the pipe and the thin veins through the nurse’s pale flesh.

I know I’ll be adding this to my collection! Heck, I might even end up getting a couple down the road to make my own nurse horde!
