Big news everyone! We have confirmation that Carrie Anne Moss (The Matrix Trilogy, Memento, Unthinkable, Chocolat) while Leonard Wolf is being played by Malcolm McDowell (Easy A, Entourage, A Clockwork Orange)! Continue reading to see the full press release and a new movie still!
Shooting begins tomorrow at Homeniuk Rides Incorporated Presents Superfun in Ontario, Canada for what I assume is a Lakeside Amusement park scene!
Homeniuk Rides Incorporated Presents Superfun said:
So far there’s a gallery of a ride called “Ring of Fire” on their facebook. I’m not sure if it’s in anyway related to the shoot but I hopefully more info will be available from fans on set or Michael Bassett himself in the next couple days!

I’m still working on the Silent Hill 2006 Movie section and I’m just about halfway done. I’m hoping to open this section within the week! Here’s my progress so far:
I’ve also reorganized the news section a bit with new categories and tags which I hope will make the type of news you are looking for easier. In addition the newer sections: Shattered Memories and Downpour now have links to their game specific new posts. When I open a section for Revelation it will have a similar section.
There are also some new graphics around the site. I’ve made a header graphic for the The Information Desk area of the site and I’ve also replaced the clock image with an image of the SHHS building from Silent Hill 2 I edited on the main side menu!

According to a blurb in September 2010 issue EMPIRE magazine this Oscar winning actress was sent a script for Silent Hill: Revelation
Michael J. Bassett did mention a “Major Surprise Casting” announcement, do you think Smith could be it? If she is cast, who do you think she would play? Not Claudia…she way to old for the role hmm maybe another senior cult member? If Smith does end up joining the cast it would be pretty epic!

Want to own a piece of Silent Hill history? Now’s your chance! The Play For Japan campaign, a video game industry initiative to raise money for earthquake and tsunami relief in Japan, has put Akira Yamaoka’s guitar for auction!
Silent Hill Fans! You’re bidding on an extremely special guitar. This Yamaha APX-15FM acoustic electric guitar was purchased by Akira Yamaoka, producer and composer of the Silent Hill series of games, shortly before he began work on the first Silent Hill game. Akira composed the first soundtrack on this guitar, and then used it to compose every Silent Hill soundtrack he worked on thereafter. The SOUL of Silent Hill resides within this guitar. There’s a high possibility that it’s haunted!
The guitar also comes with two effects amps used while making the game soundtracks; a Line 6 FB4 and a Line 6 POD. Akira says that using these amps you can recreate any sound from the Silent Hill series!
This guitar was also used by Akira at the Video Games Live series of concerts!
When we asked Akira if he was willing to put his Silent Hill ‘mojo’ up for auction, he replied that it was a small thing compared to the losses the people of Touhoku suffered due to the earthquakes and tsunamis.
The winning bidder will also receive a personalized autograph on the guitar from Akira.
Truly, this is a special, sentimental auction, and it would make a wonderful addition to any musician or Silent Hill fan’s collection. Don’t miss out on a chance to own a piece of gaming history!
Silent Hill Series:
The biding is already up to $1,300…makes me wish I was richer!

The movie has only just begun filming and there’s already rumors about how the movie ends. In case any of you don’t want to see any sort of spoiler true or false I’ll put this under a spoiler tag.
According to favouritez, who provided the first shots of Heather in her full costume they believe they saw the ending scene to Silent Hill Revelation being filmed. They describe the possible ending as below:

In round one Silent Hill is up against Starcraft for best franchise. We all know Silent Hill is better so go vote and show your support 🙂
I’ve been working on expanding Silent Hill Historical Society! Check out my new section dedicated to the Silent Hill: Play Novel. I still need to add some screenshots to the Cybil Scenario Endings section but it’s pretty much complete.
I’ve also added new header graphics to the Shattered Memories and Downpour sections to make it a little easier to know what exhibit you are exploring.
Look for a section on the 2006 Movie later this week!
