It is just not fair

[bone collector]

The hellraiser movies are probably the best horror films around,and those fucking producers keep them out of theatres and direct to video and dont even put on a dam preview.Probably no one has ever heard of hellraiser:mad:

[Killer Clown#1]

I'm with you man, I'm one of the few fans of the very underrated Hellraiser series. Chatterer rocks!

[ShankS]

One of them was in the cinema here in the Uk, forget which one though, think it was the one where Pinhead is standing at the alter and the stained glass windows implode, whilst he shouts out damn nation to all around.

[bone collector]

You mean Hellraiser 3 Hell on earth. It was good but iis not as good as number 2

[bone collector]

And i mean not showing it in america and canada

[MichaelMyers]

I liked the first one and Bloodlines. The spaceship blowing up was pretty cool.

[bone collector]

Yeah when the sattelite shot that blue light

[Killer Clown#1]

1,2, and 3 were the last ones that got a theatrical release. I thought 3 sucked big time
:rolleyes:

[bone collector]

Number 3 wasnt so bad, the only cool part was when spenser and pinhead merge together

[Gore fest gerb]

The first 3 was shown in the cinema in the uk but I only liked the first 2 the others was crap and not dark enought like the first 2.

what do you expect when the producers knock them out with low budgets so the takings don't need to be a lot for them to make a profit, that's all the producers care about. the only way for the series to get back on track (and back into theatres) is for clive or a big studio to buy the rights. new line seem to be a good choice as they treat their horror films series with due respect, and it would help if they ever wanted pinhead in a "vs" clash.

it's an overexcited kid.

[bone collector]

overexcited about what

[otis]

I like the Hellraiser series. The second is the best, but I think they started to get boring. Like all movie series.

[jay o2 waster]

Hellraiser owns

[GorePhobia]

maybe they just went straight to video because they SUCKS thats JMO

[bone collector]

probably

[Vodstok]

I have to say, I always liked Pinhead, and I thought the concept of the Cenobites was awesome, but I think the movies are kind of piss-poor. Clive barker is one of those guys i want to like a lot more than i do, because he has fantastic ideas, i just dont particularly care how the stories pan out.

I'm not sating they suck, however, I'm just not a fan.

And I hated lord of illusionss Scott bakula can go lick a scrotum.

[Arioch]

The entire series never did a thing for me. Pinhead is tiresome, not frightening, maybe thats because of darth bane tho :p , and the best character in the whole series was UNCLE FRANK!!! they shouldv'e made the series about him.

[zwoti]

apparently the julia character was going to be the reoccuring character in the series, but this changed after the impact of the pinhead character and the actress not willing to play julia again.

[bone collector]

I thought Julia was a fag in hellraiser 1, and 2

I thought that hellraiser 3,5, and 6 were the best because they are not sick and twisted like 1 and 2

[bone collector]

i agree with myself

[kpropain]

1 and 2 are the best imo.

[Leslie Daher]

hellraiser has been out a long time and was highly successful among horror fans so it is not true that it's not been heard of. there are piles of shit out there that are heard of. hellraiser 1 was really gross imo. too much gore. it kinda made me sick. 2 was better and 3 was my fav..any of them after that i thought were stupid. no, i take that back. bloodline was EXCELLENT story telling-still a little gory but decent. I HATED INFERNO! i had to fast forward through it, it got sooo boring!

[feral cat]

Most franchises don't stay in the cinema to long after no.3 the hardcore fans still want it, but the public get bored and move onto the next fad and you can't sell enough screens to just the fans!

As for Hellraiser it self the sadomasochistic themes do nothing for me ... pain is pain and sex is sex! Barkers stuff is too much of his sexual fantasies for my liking!!!!!

That space hellraiser seemed to be a cash in on the far superior "Event Horizon"

... but each to there own if S&M is your thing then Barkers the way forward I guess

[Sistinas]

I'm not buying the cash in theory.Bloodline was released in 1996-Event Horizon in 1997.

...Films are often rushed through production if they know a film with a similar theme is on its way out!

but I may be wrong on this one! The rest of my points on Hellraiser stand though!

[Sistinas]

Yea,I was just saying it was released the year before,you might be right about the rush though.

[jay o2 waster]

i liked bloodline

[bone collector]

i liked inferno

[Freddy Krueger.]

I hate Hellraiser. I use to wonder why they never gave preview or showed it in the theaters and just brought it out in VHS, well, I did, untill I saw it. One of the most stupidest movies I've ever seen. I was surprised they even made the movie, period.

[Vampenguin]

To whoever said they were 14: Lucky! my parents wont let me see it, and i have no way of geeting to it without them knowing! Im 14 also

... your not missing much!!!

... anyway while I doubt watching it would do you any harm, it's good to see some parents take an intrest in what there kids are viewing!!!!!!!!

[bone collector]

if you were to see hellraiser. see number 1, all the rest dont even bother
