Silent Hill
We've been expecting you.
When Rose (Radha Mitchell) finds out her daughter is dying from a fatal disease, she refuses to believe there is nothing left to be done. Against her husband's wishes, she takes her daughter to a faith healer but on the way there she is forced to stop in a deserted town called Silent Hill.
To make matters worse, her daughter mysteriously vanishes. Wandering the empty streets, Rose is left searching for her daughter, but hidden in the darkness are unknown creatures watching her every move.

This is not a movie you're going to appreciate as much the first time around, but if you take the time to watch it for a second time, the affects and degree of detail in the sets envoke an emotional reaction like fingernails on a chalkboard. They actually built this town near Toronto which is quite an accomplishment in itself.Highly stylized artistic movie - FrankFriedBeans
.. I am writing this review as a response to the numerous people commenting that the movie was impossible to understand.
Yes it is. This is one of those movies that doesn't spoon feed you every little detail, it forces you to think. This isn't a regular horror movie, it has numerous elements of science fiction, and it has gorgeous visuals and monsters, and that is why I recommend it.
Yes in the beginning it will be confusing. But after a while, it started to make sense.
If you really are still confused about the movie or want to get some background before you see it, wikipedia has a whole page dedicated to the game and movie at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silent_Hill#Film_adaptation_.282006.29,
and another interesting page is http://www.offroaders.com/album/centralia/centralia.htm, which gives some cool details about a real town in the US with a burning coal mine.silent hill - mydog
