Hellraiser is the archetypal franchise of diminishing returns. The first couple are amongst my favourite horrors but boy do they get bad.
I watched this movie with a huge degree of trepidation.
I liked it.
There's the gore you'd expect, many of the sights and sounds of the original, some cracking new cenobite design and overall I found this a very welcome modernisation of a series in need of saving.
The puzzle box makes more sense and though I've not read the book I am lead to believe this is closer to the source material.
I cared about side characters and I enjoyed Odessa A'Zion's performance. I'm very glad this movie exists.
