And the hits, they keep on a coming... Apr 1 2006
As you can tell by now, I’m on a blogging marathon. My aim is to blog more regularly, but to start with I’m getting through a whole host of things I wanted to blog about. And here’s another…
Centralia. Meant nothing to me, until I read this article. I’m sure I’m not the only person that finds this most interesting. There’s not a whole lot else to say about it, except that it looks like it could be what this years film adaptation of the PlayStation game Silent Hill might have drawn some influences from. In fact, looking carefully on IMDB for the film, it was known as “Silent Hill: Centralia” as a working title. I haven’t played the game well enough to know whether that itself was based upon the story of this Pennsylvanian town, or whether this extra reference was made within the movie to add to the existing story of the original 1999 Silent Hill video game, however it seems that somewhere at least, the story of Centralia is appealing as a basis for horror thriller fiction - despite the fact that the fires underground the town still burn this very day. Crazy stuff.
