You make good point's. I think the game PH is much more disturbing, but the movie version is also fairly scary. But i'd probably stick to game PH

I like the way the woman said "they led her to the Fiend", or something similar. How dare she call PH a fiend, he's just misunderstood .

I thought they were both scary, but the game PH was the more menacing one. He looked more inhuman than the movie PH.

Running down the hallway with Maria, in the pit of Labyrinth searching for a way out out pops out Pyramid Head in which YOU CANT KILL!
Christ, way more scary then the movie.

He is death.

they really dumbed his role down for the movie. l could understand moving away from his knife in the fan room (school) but not his arm which was about 13 feet away from rose and cybil. ph+humor=tumor.

Well, I never found Pyramid Head scary in the first place, so it hasn't done anything in my opinion.

I prefer the SH2 one the most, but I like the movie / SH5 one as well. They're just awesome...

In Silent Hill 2 I found PH disturbing then the movie came along with the actor's ass cheeks hanging out the back of the PH costume and I gave up on life.

I thought the movie version was the scarier of the two, because of how human they made him. It the game, it was just this humanoid shape, with a dress and some Ugg boots and a spear. In the movie, you saw how human he was, with the bare torso, the actual fingers, it just unnerved the hell out of me. If it looks like a human, and acts like a human, then it can think like a human. In the game, all you had to do when encountering him was run away. Pump some lead in him and run some more. In the movie, they are in a dead end, the block the door with a pipe, and he is smart enough to figure that out, and bend the crap out of that pipe.
:shock: Forget that, I want my trannyPH back.

I think I would have a massive heart attack and die upon seeing either of them.

PH from the game was far more effective in freaking me out than the movie PH, then again I played the game first. The movie PH was pretty awesome too, but I couldn't take him as seriously. Probably cuz of his ass.

I've allways wondered why he even were in the movie. PH is like the dark side of James in SH2, or something.

It's a different version of PH seen in the movie. Think outside the box.

I kind of wondered if DH did that "thinking out of the box" thing when they made SH:Homecoming. :?

My reasoning:
Game PH: About the same height as James (Good thing, can actually walk into most rooms, locations, can go where you go.)
Movie PH: Relatively taller then average (Actually ridiculously tall, let's just go into a building with low ceilings and we're fine. Weeee! )

Game PH: Looks like mittens for hands (Makes you wonder if his fingers are fused together under there)
Movie PH: Actual hands (Seems too human)

Game PH: Average/smooth looking body, average strength (Average strength? He lifts a majorly heavy knife. Something believably supernatural about that to me.)
Movie PH: Very ripped and muscular, looks alot stronger (True he does look a lot stronger

Game PH: Duck billed "pyramid" (Supposed to look "Pyramid Like". If you really look at the game Pyramid Head there is no "duck Bill" to it. )
Movie PH: Industrial/metal and pointy/sharper pyramid (Which looks like a heavy metal Woodpecker)

James manages to use that "majorly heavy" knife as well... I suppose that means the Great Knife is all made up of aluminum foil :)
