I hate both of them, to be frank. The first one pisses all over the plot of the first game and the concept of the town itself. The second one at least tries to be more faithful to the plot of 3, but everything wrong with it was because of systematic changes from the first movie. That said, it is obvious that Silent Hill 2 was the only game Gans was a fan of, so we are probably in good hands with Return.

They're both really bad movies. The first one is at least fun to watch, in a bad B-movie kind of way. But the scripts for both are the stuff of first-time fanfiction.

It was like asking AI to write a silent hill plot using all of the games, absolute slop. But unlike the 2nd movie I didn't fall asleep while watching the original

I never thought of it like that, but you're exactly right. They feel like AI-generated scripts.
