What is the Rebirth Ending?

James Attempts to Resurrect Mary

The scene opens with James sailing through the fog of Toluca Lake, his boat carrying what appears to be Mary's body wrapped in white cloth. Driven by despair and armed with all the ritual items from the abandoned town, James intends to resurrect her by appealing to the Old Gods of Silent Hill.

As he rows toward an island to presumably conduct the ritual, the outcome—whether he restores Mary, damns them both, or nothing at all—remains unknown.
