Added DiffLines:

* ContinuitySnarl: The motives of the town's cult and [[spoiler:Dark Alessa]] are pretty much the exact opposites of their motives in the first film here, both during this film's plot and retroactively, to the extent that the reason for Sharon and Rose to go to Silent Hill in the first film - thus setting up the events of this sequel - is[[TheyJustDidntCare actually written out and never replaced.]]

* BattleAmongTheFlames: The battle between The Missionary and Pyramid Head takes place inside a [[RingOfFire circle of flames]] that cuts them off from everybody else.


Added DiffLines:

* EvilMakesYouMonstrous: The Seal of Metatron shows the "truth" of things, which manifests as transforming people who are monstrous on the inside into outward forms that match. [[spoiler: Leonard]] undergoes a VoluntaryTransformation into a hulking creature after getting ahold of it, and touching it reveals [[spoiler: Claudia]] to be The Missionary.


Added DiffLines:

** [[spoiler: Vincent]] may have set a world speed record for it, not that he was exactly evil to begin with.


Added DiffLines:

* KeepingSecretsSucks: Heather is clearly quite lonely from constantly having to hide and lie about herself, which plays a role in why she is so quick to open up to Vincent; with her father missing, the next closest thing she has to a friend is a guy she's known for barely a day.


Added DiffLines:

* MetaphoricallyTrue: Christopher told Sharon that she had been in an accident and that her mother had saved her but was now gone. [[ExactWords Which is true]], but the car accident was the least of what happened to them, and Rose actually [[spoiler: sent Sharon back to him at the cost of remaining trapped]].

These do not in any way hint towards future sequels. If you\'re not already a fan of the series, then these scenes are meaningless. In any case, I fail to see how a SH2 movie would lead to an SH4 movie.
