It! 12-25-2003 02:47 PM

Hellraiser vs. Candyman!!!???
 
John Carpenter was approached for this idea. Did he do it? I dunno. We'll see.:D

MichaelMyers 12-25-2003 03:27 PM

I think we would've heard about it if he had...

bloodygurl02 12-25-2003 07:10 PM

haven't heard about it. but it would b kool if it does happen

allmykids 12-25-2003 07:26 PM

Well we all know how that would end!!! BYE CANDYMAN!!! :eek:

Deadbodyman 12-25-2003 08:39 PM

first of all, PLEASE DIE ALL VERSUS MOVIES!!!! Freddy vs. Jason was better then expected and alien vs. Predator might be worth it, but please everyone stop while we are ahead

Second, Why was John Carpentar approached about this, when Clive Barker was the creator of both frachises?? he would be a more obvious choice???????

yup Hellraiser would own candymans ass

ds_spoon 12-26-2003 12:19 PM

i would say hellraiser and candyman in a film would be a good match but out of them 2 hellraiser would be victorious..

Exactly. No one should even be able to TOUCH either of those movies except for Clive Barker.


Besides, Clive Barker is THE best horror author of all time IMHO.

I heard they were both approached (Carpenter and Barker) about the Hellraiser/Halloween crossover but the idea was dropped by Dimension. Never heard about a Candyman/Hellraiser flick, but Barker would be the obvious choice.

moonsorrow 12-26-2003 05:47 PM

after seing freddy vs jason today id actualy like to se more versus movies, i hear mixed things about it but i loved it personaly...and it made me 100 $ ritcher, it had its flaws but its ups as well.

Sam The Egg 12-26-2003 09:04 PM

Ya know what movie I'd like to see? The one that names the sources saying Carpenter was approached with doing this.

D'Lo 12-27-2003 07:40 AM

I posted this a while back. It's part of a small interview from a local magazine. It's translated from Dutch. In this, Carpenter says he was approached to direct the Hellraiser/Candyman movie, but says he declined:

Question: There are rumors they're planning a remake of your biggest classic 'Halloween' in Hollywood?
Carpenter: They didn't ask me. They did ask me if I would be interested in a monstermovie where Pinhead from Hellraiser would battle with Candyman. It would be something like Freddy vs Jason. I kindly declined.

Question: In a recent interview you have complained that you barely get any work in Hollywood. You even threatened to retire and only smoke dope & watch porn from now on.
Carpenter: I meant that half-ironically. But I admit: It isn't as fun as it used to be. I'm not planning on making any more movies, unless someone gives me a fortune.

Another interview snippet:

"Dimension had actually approached them about was a Michael Myers meets Pinhead film with Clive Barker writing and Carpenter directing," Sandy King admittedly told our source, though, that this pairing would be unlikely but, "…Carpenter is a great fan of Barker's and the one thing that might tempt him would be if Barker signed on and had a great script idea."

Hellraiser vs. Candyman!!!???
 
I think it would be a interesting concept but would really be a good movie? I am an avid Pinhead fan and I do like the
Candyman but how would you bring the two together and really make it worth watching!!!!!!!

Controversial 12-27-2003 05:05 PM

It just wouldn't work, unless they where included in the next two freddy vs jason movies.

it just might work, but the whole idea just sounds silly

jason and freddy where bigger movie serial killers and had more movies released

Sam The Egg 12-27-2003 05:13 PM

yeah, but Hellraiser is gaining on them, I think they're putting out like one a year now on STV
