Well, I can only apologize :) It was one of the very few things that I personally thought would make Silent Hill more comical rather than more horrific, when I got the image in my head! The distorted slightly Dalek-like voice that can only repeat one word at various levels of pitch and intensity really doesn't help with the... uncanny non-human fearsomeness. Indeed, part of why I found the scene in my post so... not right was because of the idea of being stuck in a lift trying to get away from a Welder-like enemy that could appear wherever he wanted at any time.

Incidentally I've been wanting to make some sort of horror adventure as well as a revenge of sorts... though that isn't really a genre that I'm familiar with making. They seem to have huge viral appeal in getting other people to play them to see if they have the same effect as they did on you, or just to get some sympathy about them.
