10 Actors You Had No Idea Were In Horror Movies

7. Kit Harington - Silent Hill: Revelation

It's quite conceivable you didn't even know that a sequel was made to 2006's generally quite-good Silent Hill movie adaptation, and so you're even less likely to be aware that it co-stars Kit Harington in the male lead role of Vincent Smith.

The film was released the year after Harington rose to stardom for playing Jon Snow in Game of Thrones, and coincidentally sees him sharing a single scene with his Thrones father Sean Bean.

Silent Hill: Revelation was also Harington's first ever movie part, and while not quite as tawdry a horror dud as, say, Hellraiser: Hellworld, this 3D sequel was still a major comedown from its predecessor.

It's probably for the best that Harington more or less fades into the periphery here, given that his American accent is a bit wobbly - if we're being kind.
