Hellraiser?

I have only seen one scene from a Hellraiser movie, it had a weird giant-scorpion thingy in it (I was like 10 at the time) that was attacking a girl in a mental hospital?

Anyways, lately I have been trying to expand my horror movie ....um.... knowledge? Whatever.


Can someone please give me the basic premise of this infamous Hellraiser series?

It's very strange, and the storyline deviates a lot after the first three. My suggestion, watch only the first three. I just finished watching them a couple of weeks ago. The last one is horrible.

I realize I am in the minority on this, and probably with good reason, but I actually like most of the Hellraiser films. They are guilty pleasures of mine I admit. But I actually like the fact they tried something a bit different in some of the films.

I am a huge Hellraiser fan though I would agreed that they got worse toward the last. I only watch up to Hellraiser 4. I believe the "scorpion thingy" was supposed to be the engineer and if you look at the bottom of the screen you can see the wheels of the dolly they pushed it on. Sorry I seem to be leaking trivia.
