Return to Silent Hill: The plot, the protagonists and the film trailer of Christophe Gans

Return to Silent Hill marks the return to the cinema of one of the most iconic and beloved horror sagas of all time. The film brings back to the big screen the disturbing and distressing atmosphere that made the video game franchise famous, among the founders of its genre and which still continues to sell millions of copies today. Like every chapter, the story of Silent Hill 2 moves independently from the rest of the saga, and boasts protagonists who have remained in everyone’s hearts. James and Mary (Hannah Emily Anderson e Jeremy Irvine) are a perfect couple: young, beautiful and deeply in love, they decide to live together in the girl’s apartment, in the enchanting town of Silent Hill. But soon something breaks and nothing will go back to the way it was before. James begins to drink and is tormented by the memory of Mary, which leads him back to Silent Hill. The shores of the lake, once full of life, are a desolate land where death and destruction reign supreme. James ventures through the deserted streets, and terrifying figures begin to appear in the fog. Mary is a constant and at the same time ineffable presence, and the path to seeing her again is dictated by desperation. The sound of the siren marks the beginning of a tormented purgatory in which reality and nightmare merge, in a journey that exposes guilt, the most intimate obsessions and the darkest secrets. Return to Silent Hillpromises to remain in balance between respect for what made the game from which it is based immortal and the desire to make this descent into the nightmare an unforgettable experience for fans of 360-degree horror cinema. 20 years after the release of the first film, Christophe Gans uses the enormous technical and narrative evolution at his disposal to bring even richer material to the big screen with multiple interpretations, which preserves all the suffocating melancholy and psychological tension of the video game. An experience for the viewer which, as always happens in this saga, will prove to be both personal, unsettling and deeply disturbing.
