Quotes and Notes
...on Dahlia Gillespie "In the original film, Dahlia is characterized as more of a victim (in stark contrast to her more agentive role in the sacrifice of Alessa in Silent Hill: Origins). Her motives are different from those of the character in the game. She is targeted and vilified by the community and church because she is a single mother and agrees to the sacrifice of her daughter only because she feels it is the only way that she can stay in the community without being sacrificed herself." "Alessa/The Darkness in the movie NEVER HURT DAHLIA. I believe there is some quote that refers to this phenomenon, about the impossibility of a child hurting their mother because they still love them and look to them for care and protection, even after betrayal. --> This same thought process came up in the “Motherhood and Murder” article and in Almond’s book."
