Can anyone tell me the meaning of the ending to Silent Hill (the film)?
As someone who has answered this question many times, here’s my take on the movie (get comfortable – this isn’t a short and sweet explanation – lol)… Contrary to popular belief, Rose and “Sharon” are not dead at the end. Rose and her husband Chris can’t see each other because they’re still in Alessa’s alternate dimension, while Chris is in the real world. Here’s the deal… There are three different dimensions in the movie**: – The real world: What we see up until the car crash outside of Silent Hill; the dimension that Chris and Officer Gucci are in – Foggy Silent Hill: A dimension created by Alessa resembling Purgatory; a place of imprisonment for the cultists and a place of refuge from the real world for Alessa – Dark Silent Hill (aka – The Otherworld): A dimension created by Alessa resembling Hell; a place of punishment for the cultists inhabited by monsters, a representation of Alessa’s revenge **Note – Foggy Silent Hill and Dark Silent Hill are not actually Purgatory and Hell.
