Silent Hill – Jacob’s Ladder
Recommended Videos
Games That Were Heavily Inspired by (Or Ripped Off) Movies
Insanity isn’t easy to portray. Well, maybe it’s easy when you’re on the outside looking in, but what about when you want to portray a world from the perspective of the insane? That’s what Jacob’s Ladder did with near surgical precision, so it’s no wonder many games treat that movie like a blueprint.
The entire Silent Hill franchise is covered in the fingerprints of Jacob’s Ladder. From the monsters that convulse wildly, to the first game’s bad ending where everything is revealed to have been the ramblings of the dying brain of protagonist Harry Mason —you can’t go anywhere in Silent Hill without seeing it wear its inspiration on its sleeve like a coat made of human skin.
