Still don't look at the trailer because i will saw it anyway. But I'm prepared to be disappointed like the first film. I mean, good visual, it's better than a resident evil film 
but still, the first film was unnecessary gore...
Also, SH3 was the sequel of the 1 but the film's scenario was différent. I wonder how they toke this one to be connected to both film and game.
I am really looking forward to this. I think the first movie was a decent adaptation to the game. Obviously they combined elements from multiple games to make it more interesting ( Pyramid head for example).
Seen it, it's fucking terrible... seriously.
Horrible script, zero character depth, piss poor acting except for the lead (she does her best, despite the mess she has to work with) and hardly any real plot. Two of the main characters from SH3's original storyline are barely even it and one them dies right at the start of the film. Bullshit jump scares that would be right at home in Paranormal Activity and face palm-cliche dialogue ("Go to Hell" "Too late, I'm already there" ...for FUCK'S sake...
The first film is an oscar winner compared to this shite, save your money.
Silent hill: Shattered HOPES. thanks d3ads:(
It's another movie based on a game and people don't like it, call the press!

Point being though that the first one was really good, not perfect but certainly one of the most important actual horror films of the last 10 years. That's a credit to director Christopher Gans and the original Silent Hill writers!
I'd still go see it 
its fun!

Really...? Not that I'm belittling your opinion, but my memory of Silent Hill was that most people I knew found it average at best and it received negative to mixed reviews across the board. Better than most video game movies perhaps, but that's not saying much considering the near-universal shittiness of them.
I haven't seen either so for all I know I could enjoy both, but it seems to me like both fit in the 'average' category and so you're liable to enjoy or hate it depending on your film preferences.
yeah, D3ads, I'm a complete horror slut myself and I can't honestly recall Silent Hill as being all that great. sure, it's an okay movie and maybe one of the best movies out there that's actually based on a game but it's far from ''...one of the most important actual horror films of the last 10 years.'' as you stated. that's completely ridiculous.
and I love Silent Hill
Ok maybe I'm going a bit too far there but honestly, name me 10 decent horror films in the last 10 years, no slashers or "torture porn"... Only I can come up with about 4..
Mirrors is quite good

Heard a review on the radio this week and the reviewer, someone who actually loves horror and sci-fi films, absolutely agreed with you on this. Too bad cause all the Silent Hill fans out there deserve better.
Piranha 3D lol
28 Days/Weeks Later are probably my favorite zombie movies. As far as the last actual good "scary" movie in the past 10 years I'd have to mention The Ring. It was pretty freakin scary, plus I was young when it came out. Tons of movies after that tried to copy its style but I feel The Ring was really the first of its kind.
Back on topic I'd have to say the the first Silent Hill movie I felt it was very meh. I really wanted it to do good and be good, but it was just eh. It was pretty long and the story was mediocre. Maybe I'd have to watch it again, but from what I remember the ending and everything it just wasn't worth it. I've never played a Silent Hill game, so maybe I'd like/dislike it more if I had been a big fan, who knows. That being said I want the new one to do well, but my hopes aren't too high.
The remake of let the right one in was alright. At least not having seen the original anyway.

Ones in bold, I'll give you those.
DOTD is a remake, so doesn't qualify, same goes for THHE. Drag Me To Hell is good but it's too much of a comedy to be a genuine horror film (Raimi's The Evil Dead 1/2 are also horror comedy but less blatantly so than DMTH or Army Of Darkness). Piranha 3D...? Ok now you're just trolling me lol The remaining titles, I haven't seen so I can't comment.
MaK: The Ring is a US remake of Japanese Ringu and doesn't count.
I had a long think and these are my picks (other than SH);
[REC]
Antichrist
Pan's Labyrinth
30 Days of Night
Wolf Creek
Wrong Turn

Sorry for staying off topic.
Anyway, I put Piranha 3D in to troll. I was wondering whether or not you would notice
I didn't include Pan's Labyrinth. I liked it a lot, but it didn't feel like a horror movie to me. Just a dark fairy tail like Sleepy Hollow, which is also awesome. Totally forgot about 30 Days of Night and Wrong Turn (only the first one of course). So good picks! I didn't see Wolf Creek or [REC]. I also liked The Wolfman a lot but most people disagree. Cabin in the Woods wasn't too bad either but too much of a comedy to be taken seriously.
The original Evil Dead was pretty 'serious'. It seems a lot of people have forgotten that. Evil Dead 2 however added a shitload of comedy like you said and Army of Darkness took the crown. I have to disagree about DMTH. It had comedy, but most of it was pretty much horror. It had great moments like the garage scene.
I recommand you checking out the ones you didn't see on my list. You probably won't be disappointed seeing how our taste in horror movies is quite similiar. Oh, and you never said that remakes didn't count 
I have to go with MaK regarding Silent Hill.
I don't think remakes should be disregarded purely on the basis of them being remakes. If a film is good, does it matter what it was based on — whether that by film, novel, or game?
By that same logic you'd have to disqualify you'd own favourite Silent Hill too.
