Hellraiser: Hellseeker (2002 Video)
2/10
Franchise has gone to hell

Warning: Spoilers
"Hellraiser: Hellseeker" aka Hellraiser VI is almost a repeat of part five. The main character, Trevor (better known as Mayhem from the Allstate commercials), couldn't remember certain things and those memory blocks had to do with certain people being killed. Over the course of the movie the blanks are filled in and then we get a complete picture. But the whole time he's going through these psychological trips much like the detective did in part five.

The big twist in this episode is that Trevor (Dean Winters) was actually dead; killed by his wife Kristy (Ashley Laurence), who was a Pinhead escapee from parts one and two. Kristy escaped Pinhead yet again in this episode. This time she offered him five souls to spare her one.

The insertion of Kristy would've been better had they refreshed our memory with some flashbacks of parts one and two. I didn't recognize her or her name. The only reason I know she's the one who escaped Pinhead is because he said so. Hellraiser is going further and further away from the importance of solving the cube and the realm that people enter once they do. In short, Hellraiser has gone to hell.
