Silent Hill (2006)

Corrected entry: When Rose first meets Cybil, she is wearing sunglasses, even though it is too dark for them.

Sammi

Correction: Cybil is an officer riding a motorbike. She wears the sunglasses at all times to protect her eyes from the wind, bugs, and road grit while driving. During the day they protect her eyes from sunlight, and at night they protect her eyes from the headlights of oncoming cars which would otherwise render her temporarily "blinded" while her eyes readjusted to the darkness.

Silent Hill (2006)

Corrected entry: When Cybil speaks to Sharon in the car, Sharon's comment is that she doesn't talk to strangers. Three quarters of the way through the film you see Sharon in Dahlia's house. If Sharon doesn't talk to strangers then why is she in her house?

Correction: Because she is being controlled by Alessa, just like she was during her "sleepwalking" episodes shown and discussed at the beginning of the movie.

Silent Hill (2006)

Corrected entry: After Cybill is burned alive and the ladder is pulled back up, you can see that her corpse is completely burned from head to toe, while the ropes holding her and the wooden ladder on which she is suspended are completely unburned and are still holding her body.

Correction: This is Alessa's purgatory for all those who hurt her. It's not the "real world" so the normal laws of physics don't apply. Shortly after this scene Alessa comes out and attacks everyone with barbed wire tentacles: the normal laws of physics don't apply.

Silent Hill (2006)

Corrected entry: When Cybil caught on fire, neither the rope or the wood she is attached to catch fire. They are both flammable and should have gone into flames.

Correction: Since they were to be used for this purpose, and they didn't want the body falling into the fire sending a blast of hot ash onto everyone in the room, they were likely covered in a flame retardant substance.

Silent Hill (2006)

Corrected entry: When both Rose and Cybil first encounter one of Silent Hill's "eerie" residents, the walking acid vomiting zombie, both their radios and mobile phone react with static, as they do in the game. Yet they react at no other time when any other creatures are near.

Mad Ade

Correction: This is a discrepency between the mediums, not a film mistake. It is never stated *why* the phone reacts this way, so there is no requirement for it to do so every time.

Silent Hill (2006)

Corrected entry: Rose's mobile phone remains unblemished throughout the whole movie, despite at one point all of Rose's top under her cardigan being covered in blood.

Correction: The phone is plastic. Plastic wipes clean pretty easily. Just because we don't see her do it, does not mean she doesn't.
