A Silent Hill Tribute Album in the Works!

Posted By: Whitney   August 6th, 2012 | 10:30 am

Well this is exciting! Some fans are teaming up to put together a Silent Hill Tribute Album and they need your help!

They are looking for fellow musicians and artists to contribute. I really liked what I heard of the samples of the music so far!

A Silent Hill Tribute Album! Made for the Fans, by the fans!

A tribute album of original songs by real artists, inspired by the ambiance, the feel,
the sounds and the music of Silent Hill.

We need musicians and/or artists to dedicate a new composition or artwork for the record!

Just compose a song, do some artwork channeling Silent Hill!

Send it to us and we do the rest!

We hope to stay in close contact to the growing number of contributors through the process, as well as take your suggestions and ideas towards the product.

To submit a song or official volunteer to the project please contact me and get my email address!

When we have enough tracks and track-art, we will compose an album and distribute to all the fans, perhaps even do a ‘pay what you want’ option and donate the proceeds to a charity, or give back to the artists themselves!

Just contact me @ my blog and we can talk some more!

Toymunkey’s painted Pyramid Head statue is a thing of beauty

Posted By: Whitney   August 4th, 2012 | 5:38 pm

I received quite a surprise in my email inbox this afternoon, a press release and photos from Toymunkey studio regarding their painted Pyramid Head statue:

Toymunkey Studios Silent Hill Red Pyramid Thing Painted!!! / Pending Approval

Toymunkey Studios in collaboration with Gecco Corp is proud to announce a new line of PVC Statues based on the popular Konami video game series and hit movie Franchise Silent Hill 2! First shown in unpainted form at Comicon 2012, this debut release promises to capture all the horror and suspense of the original series. These incredibly detailed prepainted 1/6 scale figures are constructed of durable PVC and are due this Fall/Winter. More products will be shown soon!

Just recently unveiled at Wonder Festival Japan for the first time, the painted RPT is represented in all his horrific glory! These official pictures of the Painted RPT are still PENDING APPROVAL by Licensor and may differ slightly from the final product as the masterful paintwork is complete and is approved. Please stay tuned for more official pictures and approved work in future updates!

Please follow us on Twitter and Facebook for a series of announcements and updates.

Toymunkey Studios….A LVL-UP in Toys!

I was very impressed with the unpainted version of the statue I saw in person at Comic Con and I have to say that the painted version is just glorious! I didn’t think I could get any more excited! Pyramid Head looks like he just stepped out of the game and the details in the paint job is just phenomenal! Look at the rust on the the Great Knife and the blood specks on Pyramid Head’s boots!

Gecco Corp’s paint job is a million times better than the official Konami Style HEADLONG Pyramid Head released just two years ago whose paint job was so uninspired, wash out, flat, and dull. The paint job did not do HEADLONG’s amazing sculpture justice. Just compare the paint jobs on the helmet between Konami Style’s 2010 HEADLONG and this Gecco painted HEADLONG. Gecco’s paint job is in a league of it’s own with the use of variations of red, black and browns used recreate Pyramid Head’s rusted helmet while Konami Style’s is just a dull rust orange. Really the two just can’t compare! I am very, very pleased!

I’m amazed that after all these years we are finally getting some affordable high end Silent Hill collectibles domestically…it’s a dream come true!

I know what I’m asking Santa for Christmas this year! 😉

So what do you guys think? Planning on adding Pyramid Head to your collections?

Silent Hill Revelation Trailer Analysis and Screenshots!

Posted By: Whitney   July 29th, 2012 | 1:05 am

Friday was a big day for Silent Hill fans… it was the premiere of the long awaited Silent Hill Revelation 3D trailer!

I’m sure you all have probably watched it by now but if not you can see the full trailer below:

Unfortunately I was busy at work when this trailer was released so I couldn’t really take screens nor could I make this sort of write up earlier. I’m sure I’m terribly late to the party of giving my own thoughts and everyone else has picked apart this trailer by by now! Haha oh well!

With that said, based on what I saw in the trailer I am so excited to see this movie.

Silent Hill Revelation at Comic Con 2012 Report

Posted By: Whitney   July 17th, 2012 | 12:10 pm

A lot of great news regarding Silent Hill Revelation was revealed at Comic Con this year. Unfortunately their still isn’t a trailer (expect one in the coming weeks) but we did get a peek of actual movie footage at the panel, new info and a movie still!

The Panel

I lined up five hours early on Saturday to get into the panel but just missed being able to make it inside before the room fill capacity for the first panel of the day. Silent Hill was the second panel of the day but since no one had left the room after the first panel me and many others were let standing outside when it began. 🙁

Luckily those who were able to make it in, like JoBlo.com were sure to give a nice run down of what went down inside.

    · Two clips from the film were shown. One clip that made it online shows Vincent strapped onto a hospital gurney surrounded by several creepy nurses. As Heather tries to help him escape the nurses attack:

    The second clip featured a creature that that was not done practically on set. In the clip Heather frees her friend who’s encased in some kind of web or tape and a spider-like creature made up of mannequin parts comes after them. This cgi monster’s reveal is exclusive to con goers and as of today still hasn’t surfaced online. It has been said however that this new creature was inspired by the games and I’ve been told by those who attended the panel that it looks similar to Scarlet but on steroids.

    · Revelation is a sequel to the first movie and and adaptation of the third game, but will also work as a standalone film. For fans of the series there will be many easter eggs to look out for.

    · The movie is a hard R and the clips we shown were the only PG-13 parts of the movie. “I didn’t want to scare the Hobbit fans out there.”

    · The character Sharon from the first films has been turned into Heather in this film which will be explained.

    · The film was completely shot in 3D. Michael J Bassett was not fond of this format initially but soon came around saying that if there ever was a universe to immerse yourself in, it’s this one.

    · Actress Adelaide Clemens screamed before every scene in preparation for ‪Silent Hill Revelation

    · A fan asked if Sean Bean’s character will die like he does in almost all of his roles. Bassett answers with “Yes and no. You have to see the movie to understand. You’ll have something to add to the [Sean Bean Death Montage] YouTube video, but not in the way you expect.”

After the panel Michael J Bassett and Adelaide Clemens signed autographs for some lucky fans. I wish I could have met them but at least I was able to pick up one of those Revelation posters they were signing later at the IDW booth in the dealer’s room!

And finally a new still from the movie was released showing Heather on what seems to be a burning Lakeside Amusement Park carousel.

I got to say after this weekend I’m super pumped for the movie! I hope more movie stills, clips, official movie poster and trailer will be revealed soon!

Silent Hill Revelation FB Poster Contest Winners!

Posted By: Whitney   July 17th, 2012 | 10:04 am

The winners were announced in the Silent Hill Revelation FB Poster Contest (fan page no longer it’s now the official facebook page for the movie!) last week while I was away at Comic Con! The three winners all got a copy of the Lakeside Amusement Park poster used on the set of Silent Hill Revelation!

I was able to nab the top spot for the award decided on by fan votes on the page! “The one who will lead us to Paradise with blood stained hands!” It was a really close race at the end the standings were as follows:

Whitney Chavis – 1556 votes
Youssef Sourgo – 1532 votes
Levi Stapler Titus – 1036 votes
Manthos Lappas (from Inner Fear) – 771 votes

I won by 24 votes…I couldn’t believe it! Words can’t express enough love for all my friends, family and strangers who voted and got others to vote for my entry during the contest…especially in the last few hours! You guys are all awesome and I definitely couldn’t have done it without all your help. THANK YOU SO MUCH! You guys made this Silent Hill fan so very happy

The second award “Well, the guest of honor has arrived. Let’s get this party started” chosen by special guest Alex Tuis, concept artist for Silent Hill Revelation 3D, went to Manthos Lappas!

Tuis said he chose Manthos as a winner because

“Manthos is I think the only one who really took so much time to paint his poster”

Runner Ups also chosen by Alex Tuis for this category were:

Whitney Chavis
David Godfrey
Aidan Reale-Key
Kryss Benton

I was totally surprised I was also a runner up in this category as well! It was such an honor to find out that out of the near 200 entries in the contest my design was one of those singled out that concept artist for the film as a runner up! 🙂

Finally there was the random prize draw winner, “Dead people don’t cry,” for following @emaninTdot went to Cory Cannibal (@TechnoFreaxx)

Congrats everyone!
