Plot
A person in a video game is spotted entering an eerie mansion. He walks past a broken mirror, where an image of a dead girl appears in the mirror, foreshadowing an attack by an Undead. The character flees up the stairs, spies an undead girl in the hallway, and enters a room where two dead bodies, covered in blood, hang from the ceiling. Out of the gloom lunges a woman wearing a blood red dress. She knocks him off the staircase banister, and the character is killed when he is hanged by a chandelier chain. The player of the game (Stay Alive), Loomis Crowley (a cameo appearance by Milo Ventimiglia), asks his friend Hutch MacNeil (Jon Foster) to come over. When Hutch turns him down, Loomis goes to bed, but is later woken by a nightmare. As he returns from getting a glass of milk, he hears a strange vibrating noise, and a shadow approaches him. After finding his roommates dead, their bodies hung from the ceiling like the ones he saw in the game, the woman in the game appears and pushes him off the banister, and Loomis is killed by a chain wrapped around his neck before he has a chance to land, eerily similar to his character's death in the game.
Hutch is then seen in his office, where he is an intern at a business corporation. Hutch's boss and friend, Miller (Adam Goldberg), asks to see him, when really he only wants gaming advice on Silent Hill 4. After discussing the video game, the phone rings, and the call is for Hutch. The phone call informs Hutch that his close friend, Loomis, who Hutch was just talking to the night before, has died. At the funeral, Hutch is given all of Loomis' games and papers by Loomis's younger sister, including "Stay Alive". The sight of the game disturbs Hutch, as it had been the game Loomis was playing hours before he died. At the funeral, a blonde girl about Hutch's age approaches him with an old-fashioned camera (the camera is a tribute to Fatal Frame, a horror survival game in which most of the video game portion of the film is based on). She takes a picture of him and identifies herself as Abby, a close friend to Loomis's roommate, Sarah, who was also killed the night Loomis died.
After the funeral, Hutch arrives at a video-game coffee shop owned and run by his closest goth friend October (Sophia Bush) and her dirty brother Phineus (Jimmi Simpson). Hutch hands October the bag containing Loomis' possessions, and October thumbs through a photo album and Phin finds an old lighter. The lighter triggers a trauma vision of the past for Hutch. These trauma visions are shown throughout the film. Phin eventually finds Stay Alive, when they decide to play that night.
