Trivia
Red Pyramid is a full body costume that was blended at Roberto Campanella wrists, requiring only 25 minutes of preparation for each scene, as opposed to the three hours it took in the first film.

Goofs
The cult shown in Revelation, despite being stated to be the same cult as in the first film, has an entirely different set of beliefs that is almost completely opposite to that of the original cult. The first film shows that Alessa Gillespie was burned alive as a witch, due to the cult believing that she was "sin incarnate" due to her being born out of wedlock. Revelation, however, states that the cult burned Alessa so they could perform a ritual to impregnate her with a physical incarnation of their god, knowing that she would survive the fire. Initially, M.J. Bassett claimed on her blog that the Order (the cult seen in Revelation) and the Brethren (the name given to the first film's cult) were two separate cults. However, this is contradicted by Vincent's statement in Revelation that the Brethren are the most fanatical members of the Order. Similarly, the religious symbol of the cult is changed dramatically between the two films, to the point of being unrecognizable.

Quotes
Heather Mason: Alessa...
Alessa: Daughter... Sister... Self.
Heather Mason: No!
Alessa: I gave you life so you could live my dream. You're the part of me that could be free of this pain, could live and feel love!
Heather Mason: Do you feel nothing?
Alessa: Nothing but hate.
Heather Mason: They say you are a demon...
Alessa: They are right.
Heather Mason: You created this nightmare...
Alessa: Everyone has a different nightmare in Silent Hill... I am theirs...
Heather Mason: I have to save my father!
Alessa: He's not my father, or yours... And sacrifices, have to be made.
Heather Mason: Go to hell!
Alessa: Can't you see it? We're already here... And you are not welcome!
Alessa: Do you think, I won't destroy you?
Heather Mason: How can you? I am you.
Alessa: Time to take back what I gave you!
Alessa: Stop!
Alessa: We are one, again.

Didn't feel like watching a movie. I don't know what it is.

Now I'm okay with movies that didn't follow exactly like the original plot from games, books, etc like the first Silent Hill movie, I think it is still fine. But this one is just BAD. I'm not sure what I was watching but I didn't feel like I was watching a full movie. It just lack of many things. Maybe it's too short, maybe Silent Hill 3 is just not suitable to be made into a movie because the story is all about Heather trying to find the truth about herself, and since we already knew that at the beginning, what is there to tell anymore? And we as an audience already knew how her father is doing, only Heather didn't know, again there's nothing to look forward too. We just merely watching Heather going from point A to B and nothing else. It is that dull and plain.

And the horror? the movie is trying too hard to be creepy. What's with all the pointless close up of meat cutting and bloody mouthful eating. I don't know it just didn't work for me.
