Silent Hillfans finally have something to look forward to after so many years of neglect. I’m not talking aboutSilent Hill for theremake of the first game, but something that they truly deserve after all this time, a very bizarre-looking movie. We got a new look at Return to Silent Hill with pictures of James and Maria, but it seems fans still hate how everything looks.
The two are standing in a run down building looking at each other, with James in a full leather jacket and Maria wearing a really odd choice of clothes. It looks like beginner level cosplay rather than a shot from a movie or a set. However, the biggest perpetrator in this picture is the wig that Maria is wearing.
Don’t Die On This Hill
Fans were already wary of the movie ever since we got our first look at it. Everything just looked very cheaply assembled, like in a high school play perhaps. It looks like the producers haven’t decided to change anything since then, as the same complaints have followed with this new reveal.
“Man. This already looks hella shitty from this picture. Not the party city wigs,” said one comment. “While this does sort of look like a cosplay shoot, I will still be seated,” replied a die hard fan. Even Larian publishing director Michael Douse asked “Is this meant to be a deterrent?”
Of course, there were multiple comments calling it cheap cosplay or a porn parody, but Maria’s wig was the centre of everyone’s hate. “Couldn’t they find an uglier wig? I literally bought a wig for 30 euros at Shein that was more natural and prettier than that one,” said another comment.
While Silent Hill fans are finally getting remakes and even a new game after all these years, it seems that the movie isn’t going to help relaunch the franchise in any way; quite the opposite, in fact. I could say that this isn’t a final shot from the movie, but no matter how much post production you layer on it, the wardrobe department has clearly taken some strange calls.
