Via Destructoid comes the terrifying revelation that the 1999 PlayStation survival-horror classic Silent Hill is, shall we say, strongly influenced by the 1990 Arnold Schwarzenegger survival-horror classic Kindergarten Cop. And since we all know that Kindergarten Cop was filmed in nearby Astoria, Oregon (where The Goonies, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III, and, most importantly, The Ring 2 were also shot), that means all the fucked-up shit that happens in Silent Hill… could very well happen in Astoria.
Behold the horrifying photographic evidence here. And then never go to Astoria again.
Parts of the movie Short Circuit were also filmed in Astoria and other places in Oregon. Notably Crown Point.
