It explains the stages of death... The levels of consciousness that the soul travels through when it passes over.

It touches on many many subjects... Including fear, prejudice, torment in the mind, the stages of death, religion, atheisim, social structures, how each and every one of our lives is intertwined with only certain other people for a reason.... loads of things...

It is also an excellent analogy to use to explain the pitfalls of radical belief systems and a mob rules attitude. I think it was a well executed movie. I was freaked out for days thinking about it.

It was one of those psychological deep things that stay with you.

At the end... They go home. Home spiritually and home, physically. it shows the relation between this world and the next, how close they are in proximity but how very different in substance and matter...

It is deep... You have got to see it a few times.

I have to admit, I didn't like the graphic images and some of the morbid bodies and subjects... but it was a fantastic film!

first off if you have any trouble understanding why the women was able to be in the town in its true version and the husband was not is becasue the little girl was a portal to that world. it was basically about the spirit of a little girl that died imbodied in three different forms her true self her evil self and her little bit of good self, and how they needed the good half of her to destroy the people of the city that hurt her years ago. and the ending ended that way because the evil half possesed the good half and as long as the evil half is with the wife she is stuck in that reality

OK here goes (again) The mom and little girl died in the car crash. They were trapped in a parallel universe in the town. (Remember when the dad sensed they were there?) The end is basically them finishing up business before crossing to the "other side".

When the daughter and the mother crashed they died along with the police women... they kinda just woke up to another dimension and think that they are still alive.

OK, lol I just got done watching it. OK, here I go lol (PS: I got this from wikipedia.org btw): The film begins with Rose and Christopher Da Silva (Radha Mitchell, Sean Bean) searching for their adopted daughter Sharon (Jodelle Ferland), who sleepwalks. As Rose rescues her near a cliff, she cries out for "Silent Hill!" The episode prompts Rose to take Sharon to the town in her drawings and her dreams to confront her problem. Christopher opposes the idea because the town has been devastated by underground coal fires. They depart despite his concerns. On the way to Silent Hill, Rose and Sharon stop for gas in the town of Brahams, where they find that Sharon's innocent drawings have been disturbingly altered. The child's outbursts at the discovery raise the suspicions of a nearby police officer. As they leave, the officer attempts to pull over Rose. As Rose evades the officer, she swerves to avoid a young girl walking in the road. Rose is knocked unconscious as her car swerves off road. Rose wakes up to a dimension of fog and falling ash, a limbo world.[3]

With Sharon nowhere to be found, Rose walks into nearby Silent Hill to search for her. Rose spots the girl that she swerved to avoid, who remarkably resembles Sharon. As Rose chases her around town an air raid siren sounds and the town shifts into a dimension of darkness and rust, a representation of hell.[3] While searching for Sharon, she is assaulted by small, disfigured, burning children (the Gray Children). Rose passes out as everything burns away into dust. Upon awakening, she is back in the dimension of fog. On her way back to her car, she finds the edge of town has been cut off by a large chasm. Here, she encounters Dahlia, who tells of her daughter Alessa's horrible fate. Rose then runs off to her car where she finds a clue about a "School" in a drawing on the road. She calls Christopher, who only receives fragments of her message. Back in the real world, Christopher hears enough of the call to know where to search for her. When he arrives near Silent Hill, he is stopped by Officer Thomas Gucci (Kim Coates), who agrees to help Christopher search the town. Gucci converses with Christopher about the coal mine fires that have been burning for thirty years underneath the town.

Back in the foggy dimension, Rose is found and arrested by Cybil Bennett (Laurie Holden), the officer she evaded. While attempting to leave the town, Cybil is attacked by the straitjacket creature (the Lying Figure) while Rose flees for Midwich Elementary School. In a classroom, She finds the desk of the girl named Alessa Gillespie (Jodelle Ferland). Rose spots Alessa and chases her into a restroom. Here, a corpse bound in barbed wire with the name tag "Colin" is found. Rose pulls a stone from his mouth that reads the "Grand Hotel". An air raid siren sounds and the world shifts into darkness. Colin reanimates and approaches Rose. She falls out of a window onto the alley below trying to escape the horde of cockroaches spawned from Colin's touch. As she regains her senses, The Red Pyramid (Pyramid Head) approaches her. A terrified Rose runs away, passing by Christopher who searches for her in the real world. He senses her perfume, giving him hope that she is nearby. Back at the school, Cybil pulls Rose into a secure room as The Red Pyramid attempts to enter. After failing, he leaves and the darkness recedes. Back in the foggy dimension, they agree to head to the hotel to search for Sharon. Meanwhile, Christopher is told to go home after a failed search. Figuring that Gucci is hiding something, he breaks into Brahams' Hall of Records, where he finds information on Alessa, who looks remarkably like Sharon. Police reports detail how she was burned with the town thirty years ago. He later questions a nun at the orphanage where Sharon was adopted. As she refuses to talk, Gucci follows him and arrests him for breaking and entering. Gucci confronts him and reveals the secrets of the town and forces him to leave.
Cybil and Rose arrive at the Grand Hotel. They meet Anna (Tanya Allen), a cult member who throws stones at Dahlia (Deborah Kara Unger). Dahlia runs off and Anna tells how Dahlia is a blasphemer. Cybil finds a picture in the mailbox for Room 111. The three women head up there. A large painting depicting a witch burning is found where Room 111 should be. Anna mentions that the room is related to the first burning before Silent Hill had a name. Rose slashes through the painting with a knife, which reveals Room 111. Inside, they leap to a room inside the neighboring building via a hole in the wall. It is here that Rose encounters Alessa again and chases her. As Cybil and Anna catch up with her, the air raid siren blares as Anna cries out that they need to find sanctuary at the church. Arriving at the church, they encounter other cultists running inside as well, summoned there by the air raid siren atop the church's bell tower. Dahlia appears and warns them not to enter as the townspeople are deceivers and are damned. As the darkness extends toward the church, The Red Pyramid materializes behind Anna. Rose and Cybil watch in horror as Red Pyramid effortlessly skins Anna. Rose and Cybil escape inside church. Inside the church, they meet Christabella (Alice Krige), head of the cult. They discuss how Rose is looking for her child and, in response, Christbella states that the demon, who resides in the town's hospital, holds the answers. They head for the hospital with some cult members in miner suits. At the hospital, Christabella says the demon resides in the basement. A flashlight is given to Rose and she is told that the creatures will be drawn to it. As Christabella returns Rose’s locket that was torn off in an earlier scuffle, she notices the picture inside of Sharon. Declaring that the child is a likeness of Alessa, they convict her as a witch. Cybil fends off the cultists as Rose heads down in the elevator to the basement. As Rose explores the hospital, she finds her path is blocked by a number of disfigured nurses. After being exposed to the beam of her flashlight, the dormant creatures begin to move. Rose turns off the light and slips past them. Rose places the lit flashlight on the floor to distract them, and finally makes it to the demon's room.

The young girl’s voice praises her for following her clues. As a reward, Rose will learn the truth. The girl explains that Alessa was a child born out of wedlock, the fatherless daughter of Dahlia. One day while being tormented by her classmates, Alessa escapes to the bathroom. She encounters the school janitor Colin, where she was sexually molested by him. Because of the "sin" she held in the eyes of the pious community, the religious cult agrees the child needed to be cleansed. Dahlia obliged, but could not bear to witness. It is now revealed that the religious community of the town are puritanical witch hunters. Inside the Grand Hotel, where the church held their cleansing ritual, Alessa was chained and burned. Before she could die, one of the chains broke and knocked the fire pot over, causing the fire to burn out of control. Dahlia returns with police and fire rescue to find the hotel empty. Officer Gucci frees Alessa, burning his hands on the hot constraints. Alessa was taken to the hospital and placed in an Intensive Care Unit and cared for by a young nurse. The voice is then revealed as the girl Rose has been chasing. She is "Dark Alessa", a Doppelganger created out of Alessa Gillespie's power to help reconcile her growing hate and vengeance.[3] She explains that Sharon is a split of her innocence and good, who was hid at the orphanage and subsequently adopted by Rose and Christopher. Dark Alessa declares that this world is a personification of Alessa’s nightmares, and that the nightmare would not end until they get revenge. Rose desperately gives herself as a Trojan Horse for the demon to enter the church, because the faith of the cult prevents Alessa’s Doppelgangers from entering. It is here that Dark Alessa melds with Rose. Meanwhile, the cultists find Sharon hiding with Dahlia in a building and both are brought to the church, where Cybil is tied up and burned alive. Rose enters the church and attempts to reason with them. As she advances toward Christabella, she stabs Rose in the chest with a dagger. She quickly spins the episode, insisting that Rose was a blasphemer.Dark Alessa frees herself from Rose's body through her blood that spills from the wound, healing Rose in the process. Rose's blood spreads, bringing the darkness and rotting away the floor from which Alessa, in her hospital bed, rises. She uses her barbed wire supports to exact her revenge upon the cultists of Silent Hill. As this happens, Rose makes her way to Sharon and holds her. Sharon opens her eyes to see Dark Alessa peering down at her. Sharon passes out. When she awakens, it is made obvious that Sharon and Alessa have reunified. Rose, Sharon, and Dahlia are the only ones to survive the carnage as they are back in the foggy world. Rose and Sharon enter their car, which now starts. As they drive across the chasm at the edge of town, the road reappears. Their dimension is still shrouded in fog, including Brahams and their hometown. Christopher naps at home on the sofa in the real world. Rose and Sharon — still within the fog — enter the house and it is made obvious that they are forever trapped in their separate parallel realities.

Hopefully that helped you out! It sure as hell did with me!
