- Game referenced.
Silent Hill (2006)
- The scene in which Rose follows her "Daughter" down the alley, and the ensuing chaos, is almost an exactly faithful remake of the original video-game, in which Harry Mason chases his daughter through the streets, and passes out in the Alley, too. Besides this, there are many other references, including the police officer Cybill, and the opening credits also play a little of the first video-games opening theme music, too.
