This is REALLY bugging me.

There's an ad on Channel4 at the moment with clips from a load of horror movies. There's a character with this pointy hat (but points forward, not like a witches hat) and its bugging the hell out of me which movie its from. He seems to be in a misty wood in the clip if that helps?

Any ideas? confused

Thanks!

It's not the Pyramid Head guy from Silent Hill?



I'm not sure if this is from the movie or the video game but pretty similar anyway...

Don't think so. The hat was much lighter in colour. Thanks for the reminder, will have to watch Silent Hill again soon!

Any other ideas? I've tried to find the ad on YouTube/Channel4 etc to no avail. banghead
