Joseph S D In the Navy we saw this shortly after it came out - out at sea - in a rough patch. I don't think anyone got any sleep that night. Your average sailor is pretty well hardened to horror pics, but this one... Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/06/25 Full Review Kevin P Intriguing mystery of character motivations behind their fixation and history with the cenobites. Great creature work and character design for all of the cenobites. Solid acting from Pinhead's actor. Can't tell if Julia's affair is a well-done portrayal of assault or a poor framing of it as a consensual affair. I was really invested in the Frank storyline where he coerced Julia to help rejuvenate him back to life. I ironically lost some interest when it devolved to typical “undignified screaming & crying final girl chased by monsters” stuff with the cenobites & Kirsty. Or when the hospital conveniently keeps Kirsty hostage by locking her in without explaining what’s going on even though they legally can't do that since she isn't institutionalized (God, I hate that trope in horror movies). But then it gets interesting again when Kirsty offers to trade Frank's soul for hers to the cenobites with a pretty cool climax that ties it all together with some crazy body horror brought to life from insane practical effects. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/27/25 Full Review Ricardo d Lá quando eu era criança, tinha muito medo dos cenobites. Este filme passava no SBT, eu ia assistir e depois me borrava de medo. Mas hoje, sei do que tinha medo, era da maquiagem. Todo o filme se baseia na reconstrução do Frank, que é maravilhosa, considerando um filme de orçamento baixo. Isso é inesquecível. Mas o roteiro, e as atuações são bem fracas. Aliás não sei como o filme se manteve com tantas continuações. Este é um daqueles filmes onde torço para o vilão. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/05/25 Full Review Kat A Maybe I would have enjoyed this at the time it came out, but having watched it in 2024 as an adult, I can't really appreciate what they were trying to do. I found it more funny than scary. Lady lures men to house as sacrifices to bring her husband's brother (and former slam piece) back from a gooey existence is the actual plot. It has little to do with hell or cenobites, to my great disappointment. Still, it was nice to see what people reference in shows/movies now. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/31/24 Full Review James B This film is terrifying and has some of the best gore I've ever seen and the actors are just simply amazing in this. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/28/24 Full Review ItzBloxxyCool S Hellraiser… Yeah it’s pretty okay. I did almost fall asleep through this movie because of how somewhat boring it is. This movie starts with Frank solving the cube then getting killed off in a very gross and gruesome way. It’s great. Anyways, we go to the plot where a family moves into a house and we meet some characters played actually really well. The whole thing where this woman was killing people to get flesh for him was actually pretty interesting though. The cenobites are actually played great and Pinhead is actually an well-written and cool antagonist. Overall, the movie is okay with some issues that make it a major snooze-fest and great gore. 6.4/10 Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/17/24 Full Review Read all reviews
