Love a good horror film (or a so bad it's good horror film). This doesnt fit into either category. The acting is bad but it's the story that played so seriously but features a terrible storyline and pointless characters with no personality. Has this really what Hellraiser has become.
one star is generous , what a pile of crap , aweful , even stoned its crap .
review in a 100 characters when a handful will do
Amazing the 10th film in the series, this is one of the better sequels in recent years (which admittedly, isn't saying much). The film looks good and is pretty well shot, we get a decent amount of time with the Cenobites, and the storyline actually tries to develop the mythology, rather than just redoing past glories. Less successfully. the serial killer aspect of the plot is fairly generic, and ultimately the killings are so elaborate that it's hard to take seriously. The addition of a force opposite to the Cenobites own also makes sense on paper, but I'm not sure it entirely works in execution, as it does slightly rob the series bad guys of some of their threat. Nevertheless, at least the filmmakers here are trying to do something new, and there's enough here that works (or is at least interesting) for it to be worth a look for any fans of the earlier films.
