Product Description
Import Blu-ray/Region All pressing. Dead Silence stars a dummy who isn't a killer himself but a vehicle for a vengeful ghost. Previously owned by Mary Shaw, a ventriloquist who was murdered by local Ravens Hill villagers for kidnapping a boy to turn him into a human puppet, Billy houses Mary Shaw's spirit while she gets revenge on all those who killed her. Jamie Ashen (Ryan Kwanten) unravels Billy's mystery after Billy is delivered to his door to claim Jamie's wife's life, since she is pregnant with Jamie's son. Mary Shaw aims to obliterate his entire Ashen clan, since they were partially responsible for her death. Plot, from there, teeters on the ridiculous, as Mary (via Billy) rips peoples tongues out left and right. Jamie's futile attempts to stop Shaw's ghost result in his discovering a gruesome secret about his brutal, abusive father.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2025One of my favorite movies ever! A core memory and I just watched this with my horror-loving 10 yr old, she recommends!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2020As a middle-schooler, I remember seeing the trailer for “Dead Silence” and thinking, “that’s gotta be scary!” The first time I watched the movie was back in 2015 while it was on Netflix and it was great! My sister had recently come over and we began talking about movies we remember “seeing” when we were younger and “Dead Silence” came up in the conversation. I told her that I had seen it and it was actually a really good movie and offered to rent it so we could watch it. We rented the Unrated version (which to be honest is not as great as the normal version. The normal version just flows really nicely and feels more complete). After the movie, she would not stop talking about how great it was to everyone in our family. My brother and her came over for Memorial Day and I rented it again for all of us to watch, including my husband who does NOT like scary movies. They all enjoyed it.
The movie keeps you on your toes the whole time and makes you latch onto the idea that something can happen at any minute. It has enough “gore” to make it scary without becoming too over-the-top. The ending is a total twist that has you sitting back as the credits roll thinking, “Wow, I didn’t see that coming”. Like I said above, the Unrated version just has some added scenes that don’t necessarily make sense to the overall plot of the movie. I would recommend watching the original version over the Unrated. Overall, it’s a great horror flick for someone that’s looking for jump scares and a great plot that’s easy to follow.

Yah Know......There are a series of events that happen within the first 5 minutes of the movie that if it were real life, there would not have BEEN a movie. I know I know, it's only a movie. Hollywood is allowed to make ANYTHING into a movie, even if everyone reading this review know that It Aint gonna happen. The movie was not boring, took a little long to get to the point, and I will admit, there were quite a few parts that made me yelp. The twist on the end was clever, and worth the wait, and seeing the movie for the second time, I looked out for signs of the twist early on! For the most part, I had three words to say: BUMP THAT ISH!
Event #1: There is a knock on your door at 11:00pm. You live in a secured building.
Event #2: You look through your peep hole, no one is there....>STOP!! The movie should have been over at this point, because had that been anyone with a brain, that whole little "knock" thing would have been completely ignored, and for DANG sure wasn't nobody opening the door! But lets say curiosity gets the best of you, and you open the door ANYWAY...
Event #3: On the floor in front of your apartment door, there is a big brown box on the floor, with your name and NO return address......>STOP!! With the wake of terrorist attacks, I am not TRUSTING the package because I don't know who dropped it off, I wasn't expecting a package, it's 11:00pm AND there's no return address? In what world does it constitute bringing that into your home? Hell, it wasn't even wrapped in pretty paper! I was PLAIN BROWN with black marker for goodness sake!! But let's say you are still curious ( I am pretty sure most of us were moaning at the main character at this point) and you bring that box into your home IGNORING ALL THE SIGNS.....
Event #4: Inside the box you find a creepy looking doll with the most evil look on his face.
Event #5: The box looks too much like a red satin lined coffin.
Event #6: Your psycho girlfriend starts singing a song about how this chick who loved ventriloquist dolls will kill you if you scream when she visits you in your dream......>STOP!! Okay, at this point there is a fire place within 4 feet of our main character......all those conditions make a perfect night for a fire....and a burning doll. And an ex-girlfriend. Movie is over, The End.

RoxaneReviewed in Germany on October 7, 20225.0 out of 5 stars Aus dem Bauch heraus…
Dieses wunderbare Gothic-Horror-Schauerstück entstand im Jahr 2007 unter der Regie von James Wan und erzählt von einer Bauchrednerpuppe, die ein Eigenleben entwickelt.
Obwohl der Regisseur wieder mit dem Drehbuchautor der „Saw"-Filmreihe Leigh Wannell zusammenarbeitete sollte man keine Fortsetzung dieser Massaker erwarten. Im Gegenteil. Der Gewalteinsatz ist bis auf die heftige Eingangsszene verhältnismässig zurückhaltend. Es handelt sich hierbei vielmehr um eine Art Spukhausfilm, der schleichenden, jedoch auch nicht ganz unblutigen Schrecken verbreitet.
Nun muss ich zugeben, dass ich mich in die niedliche Billy-Puppe mit ihren schönen grossen Augen sofort verliebt hatte und sie deshalb trotz ihrer Untaten auch in keinster Weise als furchteinflössend empfand. Ganz im Gegensatz zur Mörderpuppe „Chucky", die mich schon beim ersten Anblick beunruhigte, aber dennoch mitunter spassig war.
Mit Chucky hat Billy allerdings rein gar nichts gemein – und das ist auch gut so. Denn Billy sorgt viel mehr für schaurige Stimmung. Vor allem dann, wenn er seinen klapprigen Holzmund öffnet, um für die Todesstille zu sorgen, indem er alles Hörbare einfach in sich aufsaugt
Weit, weit entfernt von Raven Fair wird Jamie Ashen (Ryan Kwanten) von des Städtchens Fluch eingeholt. Er findet seine Frau Lisa (Laura Regan) im Bett vor – mit schreckverzerrtem Gesicht und herausgeschnittener Zunge. Natürlich glaubt ihm niemand seine bizarre Geschichte von einer Bauchrednerpuppe als Täter. Doch sie macht ihm Angst, diese verschmitzt grinsende, kindsgroße Holzpuppe mit ihren großen Augen, kurz vor der Tat angeliefert in einem Paket ohne Absender. Und sie weckt Erinnerungen an einen lang vergessenen, scheußlichen Reim aus Schulzeiten. Mehr verzweifelt als beherzt macht sich Jamie mit Lieutenant Lipton (Donnie Wahlberg) im Schlepptau auf, um ein pechschwarzes Kapitel seiner Heimatgeschichte endgültig abzuschließen und erzählt ihm, dass in der Kleinstadt, aus der er kommt, eine solche Puppe als böses Omen gilt. Dieser Mythos beruht auf einer alten Gruselgeschichte, die von der toten Bauchrednerin Mary Shaw (Judith Roberts) handelt, welche einen tödlichen Fluch über den Ort verhängt hat.
Auf der Suche nach der Antwort, woher das mysteriöse Puppenkind Billy und mit ihm das Unheil gekommen ist, verschlägt es Jamie so nach Raven Fair, einem unheimlichen, herunter gekommenen Ort. Dort lebt sein Vater (Michael Fairman) mit dem der junge Mann allerdings im Clinch liegt. Auch des Vaters neue Freundin macht einen mehr als unsympathischen Eindruck. Bei seinen Nachforschungen begegnet Jamie unterschiedlichen Persönlichkeiten, die aber alle eines gemeinsam haben: Niemand spricht über Mary Shaw, die Puppenherstellerin und Bauchrednerin, die damals viele Zuschauer in ihre Show in ein großes Theater lockte....
Und die passend eingesetzten Musikeffekte von Charlie Clouser lassen das Böse erahnen, welches dann alsbald auch gnadenlos zuschlägt.
Das wirklich herausstechende an „Dead Silence“ sind seine liebevoll ausgestattete schaurig-schöne Kulisse, die düsteren Bilder sowie die weitestgehend von CGI verschonten Effekte. Die Masken- und Bühnenbildner haben sich nach altem Muster ausgetobt, was einmal mehr beweist, dass stimmungs- und wirkungsvolle Angstmacher nicht aus der Konserve kommen müssen.
Natürlich werden hier fast sämtliche Horror-Klischees bedient, aber das spielt durch die wundervolle Inszenierung überhaupt keine Rolle. Die gesamte Laufzeit über ist es unheimlich, düster und unvorhersehbar. Man könnte sagen der Schrecken bekommt eine Seele. Und das Ende hat auch noch eine Überraschung parat...

SébastienReviewed in France on January 14, 20205.0 out of 5 stars À commander !
J'ai acheté cette version Allemande mais la version française 5.1 DTS était notifiée.
Je l'ai tout de même commandé et aucun problème quant à la version langagière du film.
De plus c'est un film intéressant en termes de scénario, une fin des plus surprenantes.
Juste des couleurs très pales mais qui je pense ont été faites exprès par rapport à l'ambiance général.
Si vous voulez le visionner en une qualité moindre mais 'gratuite' il est sur Amazon Prime vidéo
