QUICK TAKE:
Horror: A teenage girl, haunted by dark and frightening visions and nightmares, must venture to a cursed town where demonic forces hold her father prisoner.
PLOT:
Teenage Heather (ADELAIDE CLEMENS) has been in five different schools in as many years as she and her father, Christopher (SEAN BEAN), have moved around the country trying to avoid the demonic forces who want to seize them. Soon after completing their latest move, though, a mysterious private investigator named Douglas (MARTIN DONOVAN) informs Heather that he knows her real name is Sharon and that he has been hired by the Order of the Valtiel to find her.

Douglas is eventually killed and Christopher is kidnapped and used as bait to lure Heather back to the mysterious town of Silent Hill. She must come back of her own free will so that the Order under the leadership of High Priestess Claudia (CARRIE-ANNE MOSS) can use her body as a vessel for their evil god and thwart the tyranny of the witch Alessa (also CLEMENS).

Heather is helped by Claudia's rogue son, Vincent (KIT HARINGTON), who gives her one-half of a key known as the Seal of Metatron and urges her to seek out his grandfather Leonard (MALCOLM McDOWELL) who Claudia has imprisoned in a Silent Hill insane asylum and holds the other half and possibly the secret to her family's past.

WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?
Older teens who have seen the original film and played the popular video game will have some interest.
WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: R
For violence and disturbing images, some language, and brief nudity.


I have subscribed to ScreenIt for more than a decade. I check in every week to take advantage of their amazing services. Not only does their site provide a glimpse of exactly what content a movie offers, I've found the “Our Take” reviews and ratings for each movie to be right on the money every single time. I've referred dozens of friends to this service because my #1 resource for deciding whether or not to show a movie to my kids, or to see one myself, is ScreenIt.com!

I signed up to get Screen It weekly reviews a long time ago, when my kids were young and I wanted to know more about movies before we went to a theater or rented. Now one child is in law school, other in undergraduate, and I still read the weekly Screen Its! It helps me know what my husband and I want to see or rent, and what to have waiting at home that we all will enjoy when my "kids" come home. I depend on Screen It reviews. They usually just present the facts and let me decide if the movie is appropriate or of interest for my family and me. Thank you for providing that service, Screen It!

I have 4 children who are now in college. I signed up for Screen It when my children were pre-teenagers. Often my children would ask to see a movie with a friend and I wished I could preview the movie prior to giving permission. A friend told me about ScreenIt.com and I found it to be the next best thing to previewing a movie. The amount of violence, sexual content, or language were always concerns for me and my husband as we raised innocent kids with morals. We constantly fought the peer pressure our kids received to see films that in our opinion were questionable. With the evidence we received at Screen It, our kids couldn't even fight us when we felt a film may have been inappropriate for them to watch. Thank you, Screen It. Continue to make this helpful service available to everyone, but especially the young parents.

Screenit.com is an amazing resource for parents, educators, church groups or anyone who wants to make an informed decision whether a movie is suitable for their viewing. The reviews and content descriptions are so detailed I am mystified how the reviewers can put them together.

I love screen It! I don't know what I would do without it. It is well worth the membership. Before we take our son to the movies we check it out on screen it first. Thank you SO much for making it. Keep up the good work & keep 'em coming!!!
