It drives me nuts that nobody acknowledges that James Sunderland’s jacket is a specific military jacket– the M-65 field jacket– and not the now-standard horror protagonist “LL. Bean” jacket. (like Ethan Winters wears)

There are so many more references to Jacob’s Ladder throughout the entire Silent Hill series, the creators really love that movie. I think Masahiro Ito just recently mentioned it even
