Goonies? Super 8? Stand By Me? Silent Hill?

There's too many influences is hard to know what are the main ones.

“There’s [John] Carpenter, there’s ‘Silent Hill,’ there’s Clive Barker… We’re sort of pulling from everything.”

“We play a lot of video games – there’s a ‘Silent Hill’ vibe.”

“We talked about ‘Silent Hill,” the video games were an inspiration.”

I was right with The Thing and Silent Hill then, give me my cookie, I earned it.
