SILENT HILL
Depending
on who you listen to, video games are bringing in more revenues
now than movies. Thus, movies over the last few years have as
a starting point, video games. From Mortal Combat to lesser known
movies like The Mario Brothers, the genera has come around.

This
film is full of Christian elements and overtones.
In
the second scene of the movie we see a billboard outside of a
church building that reads, “Corinthians 6:2-3 Do you not know that
the saints will judge the world? Do you not know that we will judge
angels?” This billboard makes three appearances in the film,
so it obviously had some significance. This verse can be found
in 1 Corinthians and I found it odd that the sign did not specify
which Corinthian letter the verse had come from. My guess is that
it was just a creative decision. However, the subject of judgment
is a constant theme in the film. While in a conversation with Christopher
Da Silva, a police detective says, “There are three kinds
of judgment: Man’s, God’s, and the Devil’s.”
