Hellraiser: Inferno

An awe-inspiring, beautiful, horrific, wonderful and engrossing hellraiser movie... a real, dark look at the soul of a materialistic, corrupt cop who has given his life over to delights and pleasure... and who then thinks he is pitting himself against pinhead... when all he is really doing is living in hell!

It is brillant, it's like the first two hellraiser films all over again: Exciting, inspiring, a puzzle... the refreshing and most powerful part of this film is that the detective who opened the box never learns how to close it and has no idea that he could have escaped pinhead's grasp. As the film ends, you truly feel that he is in hell for eternity, with endless horrors and psychedelic teasing that will never grow old, become predictable or lessen in it's mighty pain.

This film would be a good one to watch if you have not seen any other of the hellraiser films.

I would like to find someone who hasn't seen any of them, and show them this one... and then show them the first two films, so that they see it is possible to escape; it should make the horror of the story of a detective who couldn't escape more severe, to learn afterwards that he could have! And it's so simple!

hellraiser inferno

hi well gotta say that i agree with your comments about hellraiser:inferno, and glad to hear someone else liked it, since it didnt get many good reviews, so it wasnt a typical hellraiser film, the fact that the characrer pinhead barely appeared in the show, but it explained more bout the world of hellraiser rather than focusing on one character like the other films, i am a big fan of the hellraiser films, havent seen 6, 7 yet hard to find them here in the UK.
i am also a big fan of Clive barker anyways just thought id add a comment,
my email is delayed_reactions@hotmail.com
if anyone wants to contact me :)

Thanks

I haven't seen any other of the films. I turned my TV on after evening, switching channels, expecting nothing interesting, getting ready to sleep (sort of my before sleep ritual :) and then this film just started. I had to watch it to the end and I liked it very much. I'm not going to see any other from the serie, because I'm afraid it could dissapoint me :)
