A new international trailer for Return to Silent Hill has arrived, and the new clip digs into more of the game's lore and many of its most iconic characters, including Bubble Head Nurses, and of course, the most well-known Silent Hill villain of all, Pyramid Head (or Red Pyramid Thing, if you're going by his official name).
Here's the trailer:
Return to Silent Hill is the third film in the franchise, which adapts the Silent Hill video game series that kicked off back in 1999. It follows 2006's Silent Hill and 2012's Silent Hill: Revelation.
The Silent Hill games have become a staple of the horror genre, with an impenetrably moody setting that builds a sense of creeping dread, a central mystery steeped in the supernatural, and a host of iconic villains including the infamous Pyramid Head and the Bubble Head Nurses seen in the trailer.
The new film specifically adapts 2001's Silent Hill 2, focusing on main character James Sunderland who ventures to the cursed town of Silent Hill after receiving a letter from his dead wife. There are a total of 8 games in the Silent Hill series, plus multiple spin-offs and remasters.
"When a mysterious letter calls him back to Silent Hill in search of his lost love, James finds a once-recognizable town and encounters terrifying figures both familiar and new, and begins to question his own sanity," reads the IMDb logline for Return to Silent Hill.
Return to Silent Hill releases in the US on January 23. For more, check out our picks for the best video game movies of all time.
