“Takes a good eight minutes to burn a crumpet, I reckon”

The panel of peril take an ill-advised detour to a town that they have been told to never visit, a town so run-down and dilapidated that man dare not tread: Rhyl. Still, they must go, for they have a film screening to catch: Silent Hill (Christophe Gans, 2006).

Rose (Radha Mitchell), Christopher (Sean Bean) and Sharon (Jodelle Ferland) are a family troubled by nightmares of a ghost town named Silent Hill. When Rose decides the best course of action is to visit said town with Sharon, all hell breaks loose, quite literally. As ash ominously falls from the sky, they encounter bobble-headed nurses, lying figures, and Pyramid Head on the search through town, but can Rose and Sharon make it out in one piece?

********PLOT SPOILER ALERT********

The cultish Brethren, led by Christabella (Alice Krige), who remain in the town sit at the root of the evil. They inadvertently created their own, everlasting Hell by creating their own witch trials, attempting to burn a child whose anger knows no bounds. Will Rose and Sharon be the next victims tied to the stake, or is there a bargain to be made with forces of the underworld?

Just what did the panel think of this week’s movie, pray tell? How can they improve upon Christabella’s twisted scheme? And who will be christened this week’s most diabolical?
