That movie was the first horror movie that truly gave me nightmares and still does to this day. Everything was so disturbing, the scene with the janitor scarred me the most
you are so underated man, you get way, way less credit then u deserve, you do so many movies and even ones that we know you would probably die before watching it. I think ur an awsome movie reviewer and it is so fun to watch you
same, omg. I watched this back when I was around ten and Pyramid Head scared me soooo much. I went to a con a while back and didn't even dare to go close to a Pyramid Head cosplayer 😂😂😂
Yes!!! I have the nurse costume. It's my one of my favorite movies of all time. This channel is my favorite. My son is 8 and too young to watch horror movies with me. So we watch NewBee's reviews instead. It's like watching the movie but in less than 20 minutes. And he doesnt get nightmares.
I don't get it, other chanels used so many clips of any movie and they just got away with it, no copyright issue, urghh so annoying. U deserve so much better mr newbie
My wife and i love you! We always crack up at your movie reviews. Whenever we want to watch one we check to see if you’ve reviewed the movie first. SUPER UNDERRATED CHANNEL, 10/10, would subscribe twice if we could! Can’t wait for the next one my dude. That puppet tho!
This first movie, albeit a slow exposition dump about who Alessa/"Cheryl" is, is waaaay better than the second movie. I'm a huge fan of the Silent Hill franchise and was confused at first when they decided to switch Harry's character from the game into a mother character. But the gore and similarities to the first game are what make me love this movie. The second one, however, is just a rushed romance, which has really no place in the franchise and it just squeezes lore from several of the games without explaining their origin. Lovely review by the way sir. I just found you yesterday and already look forward to your other reviews.
Totally agree and I also find that people tend to forget that Silent Hill one was about the atmosphere, it didn’t have the metaphorical monsters we see in 2, so the movie can easily get away with having Pyramid Head and just crazy shit from the first three games
I'm not a movie buff AT ALL! I may watch maybe 1 or 2 a year. However, home from work one day, I browse around RUclips and come across this channel. That was yesterday. I enjoy it. Pretty funny.
Congratulations on 100K. So well deserved already. I don’t watch RUclips as much but always make time to check your quirky hilarious reviews. Say hello to the beautiful wife and cats!
The line, "I'm burning," was so lacking in severity that it reminded me of that kid in The Simpsons: "I'm in danger." Seriously, I could imagine him on fire saying that. I once heard something interesting about why they changed it to a mother looking for her daughter instead of keeping in line with the first Silent Hill video game. I don't know if it's true or not, but supposedly they did that because they didn't think it would be relatable enough if it was still about a father braving all kinds of hell to get his daughter back. If there is any truth to that, I would argue that's pretty messed up, don't you think? I'm pretty sure some fathers care about their kids, too.
@@luneregine765 Yeah my father used to look down on me and claim that I would use my disabilities that got worse as I got older as an excuse for one thing or another that I was no longer capable of doing as a result and would claim that I was overexaggerating to gain sympathy, which couldn't be farther from the truth. It was only a few years ago that my condition got so bad that I'm still often in bed more than I would like. Suddenly he saw how hard I pushed just to maintain what I can still do and that I was doing all I could to keep myself going physically, mentally, and emotionally to reach my goals (which I still do) and something just changed in him. Now he is my rock and my biggest supporter and I'm his too. I love my dad and always have, but even more so now that we have such a strong bond and understanding of each other now. He is my hero and confidant and I'm his. I can't tell you how much I value that because no words can adequately describe it. Fathers are equally as capable of loving and understanding their children, even though for some it take a little while.
Cool review, Silent Hill is an awesome movie, I'm glad Hollywood didn't make a lot of cheap sequels after this one. Your reviews are fun, entertaining and educational. You rock Bee Man.
I lived five minutes away from Centralia my whole life. I remember, when this movie was getting ready to be filmed, there was a rumor that those involved were trying to gain the rights to film the movie in the actual town of Centralia, but they were turned down. It was a huge topic of discussion! Centralia honestly isn’t that interesting, though. Just a deserted town with some smoke billowing from the ground and three cemeteries placed oddly close to each other. Oh, and I love the Family Guy references throughout the video. Your videos are always amusing! 😆
@15:55 the source material is Harry Mason is taking Cheryl to Silent Hill, a small resort town for a Vacation. - The assumption being that it is during Summer Vacation. This is why waking up after a car wreck to see snow, is so...off-putting and wrong. Snowing during summer vacation. As you explore the town, you can see why Harry would have taken his daughter to the town, shopping centers & amusement parks, all there but twisted and mangled now. Taking what would be relaxing & fun, twisting it to something dark and anxiety inducing. It made the mundane, scary. Also, it did things to mess with the player like audio cues, and appearing buttons. Like things would happen, and you weren't sure if you missed it before. For example the sound of the radio getting louder as enemies would get closer, and solving a puzzle where it seemed like nothing had happened, you walk through a hallway, and you find yourself in the same location, but it is more disrepair and you can't get back to the way it was originally. The game was always getting progressively more and more anxiety inducing, more and more twisted as you progressed. This would match the state of the protagonist mind, since he was looking for a family member who he thought was in danger. In a lot of the cases, the "jump scares" were very subtle, and sometimes they would be big always changing and keeping you on your toes. Think Jacob's Ladder, done as a "game." Where you aren't sure if it is all in the protagonist head.
Holy shit man. THIS is why I watch you. A video unpacking all your references here would be Snyder cut long. Love from work shutdown, election-disappointed, social starved lockdown. I also Need Jesus ❤️
turns 15 today! My first introduction to Radha Mitchell, Laurie Holden, Alice Kriege, and Jodelle Ferland. Truly one of my favorite video game adaptations despite so many changes they made. The visuals are absolutely amazing nailing down the atmosphere of the haunted town, they get the camera angles, the gore is plentiful. They used a lot of the music from the games by Akira Yamouka. Director Christopher Gans manages to bring the style and appearance to life. Plus there is the feeling of isolation and dread. Although it does suffer from inane dialogue, silly plotting, and the essence of the source material is somewhat lost in the shuffle. Sean Bean's scenes are so jarring and slow things down they could've been cut out completely. At its core though it is a story about maternal love and adoption trauma. The movie cremates the conventional adoption narrative in cinema, drawing the nightmarescape of not only forming a bond with an adopted child, but sustaining it, and what that attempt to sustain it says about the adoptive parent. Mother is god in the eyes of a child but adoptees know religion is an opiate or a way to treat emotional pain.
Youre the best ♡ i watch your vids before i sleep thank you so much for watching the human centipede it made me come over it because youre doing it with humor thank you dude ❤
Started watching you yesterday and Jesus Christ you are one of the best RUclipsrs I’ve watched in a long ass time. But I feel like a bad person for having the first of your videos recommended to me be the Human Centipede review.
Dude! Big fan of yours, and Silent Hill. When this movie came out I drove an hour and a half 6 times over 3 weeks to watch it. I even went to Centralia to see the real town the game was based on
As vaguely as I remember this movie, I remember thinking for a videogame adaptation, I thought they did pretty good. I'm not a big Silent Hill fan, so I may be tone-deaf to how close it was to the games. I feel like a movie based on anything popular needs to stand on its own as a good film first, while also staying close to what made it popular. This movie seemed to do both, barring some bad CG, but it's not offensively bad.
the only thing it did for adapting the game into the movie is nail the atmosphere. other than that, it’s an entire different story and the lore is less emotional but it’s not terrible
It’s a great movie but it was a very loose adaptation with a lot of changes, some which completely changed the plot. Which is sad since I feel like we could’ve gotten more if they followed the original story, considering how poorly the sequel did.
This was the first horror movie I had ever watched as a kid. Loved it. It was never the same hearing the siren go off at our local fire station, after watching that movie. It suddenly became extremely ominous.
Honestly, I agree with 99% of what you said, but actually liked the father's side-plot. It allowed me to take a moment every so often and savor what I had just seen in the main plot, kind of like the lingering aftertaste of great food in between bites.
Quick and random question if you don’t mind ☺️ You seem like a very kind and genuine person and I was wondering if you’d ever go live anytime soon, just to chat with your supporters? I’m sure a bunch of us have some interesting questions about the channel and would also like to get to know you as a creator better! ☺️ Keep up the great work! Absolutely love your channel! 🖤
I thought about Sinistar recently as one of the games that totally freaked me out when I was a kid, the conversation with my friend started out with 80’s classics but I eventually got to Sinistar. Next in line creepy game that I remember was Crossbow.
Movies based off games is similar to transferring books into movies. Fantastic Beast 2 is a great example of a writer making a movie. A writer must understand the medium before transferring. I shouldn't need to read the book in order to understand the movie
to be fair, the only thing the movie took from the games are the characters. i think as a stand alone movie, it’s fine. the movie lore is just not as emotional as the games
Except this film was never intended to be a faithful adaptation. I do like the movie but you wouldn’t understand the games from it. They basically combined Silent Hill 1, 2 and 3 together with the basic plot of 1 and went with it.
I never played the SH game (too intense!) but observed other people playing, and I always enjoyed the spooky lore, and fantastically gruesome character artwork & development. For some reason, I kept going back to this movie - and watched it a few times looking for more meaning/resolution. I think after this video I can now put it to bed. It's not a great horror film, but it is a great adaptation of a super creepy- and amazing- game.
I remember watching ths movie a year after it came out as a kid because my dad got it on bootleg and I was okay playing the first game and the second but by age 6 played silent Hill 3 and it scared the daylights out of me until I had the game sold after giving up in the theme park.
If we could get you. Dead meat, found flix, and spookyrice on ONE video or collab. I'd be the happiest girl ever 😭
Omg same!!!!
Literally how I watch movie now! I find it very enjoyable to hear the summary while learning all the background info. Cheaper too lol!
Maybe cinema summary for a could you beat a Serbian film?
Minus Dead Meat, and I’m there.
@@jakepayne2985 whats wrong with Dead Meat lol
This probably is the best Movie Review channel out there right now^^
Easily
Yes agree!!
Cinemasins, Brandon tenold: am I a joke to you
Foundflix, jake hollinger and beereviews are my holy trinity!
Him and dead meat I say
If ANYBODY deserves to twirl in the blood of those who wronged her, it’s Alessa. Honestly, this is my favorite scene. She got her satisfaction.
And as a Witch,so did I....
@@LucianCorrvinus nice 👌
the sad thing is many young children have been victim blamed in the same way😕
When will these corporations understand that these reviews are free promotion.
On the same day they pay taxes,so.....never.
That movie was the first horror movie that truly gave me nightmares and still does to this day. Everything was so disturbing, the scene with the janitor scarred me the most
you are so underated man, you get way, way less credit then u deserve, you do so many movies and even ones that we know you would probably die before watching it. I think ur an awsome movie reviewer and it is so fun to watch you
Ma men, 100k. Im really happy that you achieved this. You deserved it.
And he deserves even more the that 😄
This movie terrified me to my core when I was younger
Hope you're not lonely but still a stoner x 💚
same, omg. I watched this back when I was around ten and Pyramid Head scared me soooo much. I went to a con a while back and didn't even dare to go close to a Pyramid Head cosplayer 😂😂😂
I was a kid when I saw pyramid rip the woman skin off, I was so clueless through the entire movie but when he did that, I dipped
Hey ... I'm a 1958 model & I'm NOT going to watch this .
Seriously - not after THIS review ! Cats , show me more cats !!! ;)))
I loved this movie as a kid back in 2006
Yes!!! I have the nurse costume. It's my one of my favorite movies of all time.
This channel is my favorite. My son is 8 and too young to watch horror movies with me. So we watch NewBee's reviews instead. It's like watching the movie but in less than 20 minutes. And he doesnt get nightmares.
That "put the thing back in my mouth" bit absolutely killed me man, you're funny as hell.
I just discovered this channel like forty minutes ago and I'm in love with your quips and commentary. Bless.
"cmon comically big knife, let's find some giant toast" LOOL
I don't get it, other chanels used so many clips of any movie and they just got away with it, no copyright issue, urghh so annoying. U deserve so much better mr newbie
You absolutely killed it, can’t imagine someone can review movies better than you
My wife and i love you! We always crack up at your movie reviews. Whenever we want to watch one we check to see if you’ve reviewed the movie first. SUPER UNDERRATED CHANNEL, 10/10, would subscribe twice if we could! Can’t wait for the next one my dude. That puppet tho!
the fact that im binge watching every review since i found this channel last friday.
Same
Congrats on 100k, Newbee.
That cat being blinded by the light (why do I hear a driving organ chords?) Killed me multiple time.
As like a 13 year old I loved this! Good memories

Amazing review as always, but also 'I can smell my retinas burning' a++
Bruh I love your movie reviews.
I mean the movies you reveiw are alittle old but you do such a good job at them.
Congrats on 100k Tom!
Thank you for this! I would say review the second Silent Hill film but I don't want to put you through that. Thanks for the review Bee!
I'm not a movie buff AT ALL! I may watch maybe 1 or 2 a year. However, home from work one day, I browse around RUclips and come across this channel. That was yesterday. I enjoy it. Pretty funny.
dude you're wild!! I freaking love your vids I watched
I just wanted to pop in and say; I really like this guy and his channel. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the opening music. So funny.
That fucking cat getting blinded got me weak everytime.
Congratulations on 100k 🙌🙌🙌🙌

Your reviews are very unique. Good work!
Ayeee Been watching this channel for a week and I don’t regret watching your videos, keep up the great work!!!
I’d love to see you review repo the genetic opera. It’s a genuinely great movie that I feel like you’d enjoy
Yes!
congrats on 100k!
Nothing scares me anymore 😟 I wish I was a kid again... But it's still entertaining 🙂
Sinister? Hereditary?

My dad used to talk about the the town in PA. My grandfather was a coal miner before moving to NY.
I love this Channel so much

Loved the 7th Guest mention. It's what I cut my teeth on for scary games as well, and it's a shame it was never continued the way it was intended!
This was the first horror movie I had ever watched as a kid. Loved it. It was never the same hearing the siren go off at our local fire station, after watching that movie. It suddenly became extremely ominous.
God i love the cat screaming at light
haven't watched this channel in a while; your videos are even funnier than i remember! i better keep up
Love your reviews!!!
This film alongside 1995 mortal kombat film were the best videogame movie films
Theres so many movies with men going out to save their family(Taken) so the switch to a mother was refreshing
7:36 im dying over here
i love your humor sm 😩❤️
My man really adding sinistar into the review not even a minute into the video. I subbed for a reason, after all lol
Honestly, I agree with 99% of what you said, but actually liked the father's side-plot. It allowed me to take a moment every so often and savor what I had just seen in the main plot, kind of like the lingering aftertaste of great food in between bites.

Wait Sean Bean didn't die!! Holy Crap!

Thanks for explaining cuz i didn't watch the movie fully
Yay, you've got over 100k subscribers

AWESOME VID. Hilarious. Thanks!!
Great and very funny review.
I agree with your rating.
for all those who liked the 7th guest game: there is a book. it makes the story so much clearer. hope you like it!!
Silent hill n 1st mortal kombat are still my most favorite video game movies.
I love your channel 😭😂 you make scary movies funny
I’m sick and this made me happy!
