You should watch it again Mac. It's definitely one to revisit. For some reason your review of Hannibal brought it to the top of the Halloween viewing pile.
Maybe it's the Christian-European design, considering damnation is a theme in both films, and old Christian architecture is very much all about how you're going to Hell because you didn't say your Rosary or whatever.

I'll give it a watch tonight. I'm currently reading The Terror Engine (an academic study of the first four Silent Hill games) and it'll be interesting to see how a slowing unraveling horror film plays out now.
