[#SilentHill at 20] The Shocking Similarities Between ‘Silent Hill’ and ‘Kindergarten Cop’

You’ve maybe already seen people talking about this over the years, but if you haven’t, prepare to have your mind blown. Back in 2017, Reddit user Pixelmasterz uploaded a series of side-by-side screen grabs from the 1990 comedy Kindergarten Cop and the 1999 game Silent Hill, and believe it or not, the two share way more in common than you could ever possibly imagine.

As it turns out, the school from Silent Hill is almost exactly the same as the school from Kindergarten Cop, right down to tiny details and little bits of set decoration. It seems clear that the game’s developers based the fictional American school in Silent Hill on the school seen in Kindergarten Cop, and it’s actually kind of hilarious how spot-on they were in recreating it.

In doing research about this, we stumbled upon a video that highlights all the similarities, which you can find underneath the aforementioned Reddit image below. The video digs even deeper into the connection between the two, showing that the game lifted more than just the school design. The outfit Harry wears throughout Silent Hill is the same as the one Arnold Schwarzenegger wears in Kindergarten Cop, and the plots are even incredibly similar.

Pretty wild. And kind of… creepy?

“No one wants this trip to end, but as strange things start to happen, Frida begins to question her reality. There is something wrong with this place. She’ll have to uncover the truth if she wants to make it out of this party alive.”
