Description
Filmmaker Christophe Gans (Silent Hill, Brotherhood of the Wolf, Beauty and the Beast) joins Mostly Horror to talk about the power of video games as a storytelling medium, what makes Silent Hill one of the most haunting and enduring horror franchises of all time, and what it was like to return to that world nearly 20 years later with Return to Silent Hill. We explore why Silent Hill’s brand of psychological, atmospheric horror continues to resonate, how trauma and guilt shape its monsters, what separates Silent Hill from more action forward horror adaptations, and what truly makes a great monster linger in the mind long after the credits roll.But before venturing into the fog, Sean and Steve break down the latest horror news, and after escaping from Silent Hill, they round things out with their Mostly Horror recommendations of the week. It's a haunting hangout you're not going to want to miss sooo...COME HANG OUT!!!
