It will tear your soul apart

[james-stark-the-writer]

on the opening credits for Hellraiser: Inferno (where's the number 5, guys?), and, they got John Turturro's brother in this? let's see if he's as good as his brother, i've never seen him in anything (at least i don't think i have) so here's to hoping he's as good an actor because if so, i'm going to be pretty entertained, especially if Scott Derrickson directs the shit out of this.

okay so

i had to make a post

im stuck doing schoolwork and suffering, so i thought it would be funny to watch ALL hellraisers. I WASN’T READY FOR THE HELL WHICH I RAISED

i will do in detail movie review later, but to sum up,

hellraiser I, II and III are fine, but with the bloodline it takes one of the most fucking bizarre turn i have seen. OKAY BUT AT LEAST IT TRIES TO HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ORIGINAL STORY

i wasn’t ready when i started up hellraiser inferno. where the last one had something to do with original THE REST JUST KAJDFLKLAKDFJajdsfhfdsfhhjsfddhjsduhj>KjHJhLISDHFAEJHW(>T)(QRJIERHFJDHDJAhGHFADHUjk

like where as the first three and four are fantasy horror sci fi, THIS FUCKING MOVIE DECIDES THAT WE NEED A COP THRILLER

IT HAS ABSOLUTELY 0 CONNECTION WITH THE ORIGINAL STORY AND ONLY HAS PINHEAD SO PEOPLE CAN GO “OMG THAT’S THE GUY!!!!!!!! ::DDDDDDDDDDDDD” 

hellseeker tries to kinda piggyback from last movie using the same effects, but it tries to add something from the original movies; kirsty

but like......................

SHE DOESN’T DO ANYTHING :sob:

SHE DOESN’T TALK ABOUT THE CENOBITES OR THE LAMENT CONFUGIRATIONS OR LABYRINTH SHE IS JUST THERE TO BE DEAD WIFE PROP - OR NOT EVEN THAT

THIS MOVIE IS LIKE 40% SOFTCORE PORN :sob:

what i find the most bizarre, is that doug bradley, the actor from the first movies still played pinhead in these later movies, even though they CLEARLY HAD NOTHING TO OFFER TO THE FRANCHISE PLUS THESE MOVIES HAVE ONLY CREDITS TO CLIVE BARKER AS “BASeD ON CHARACTERS CREATED BY CLIVE BARKER” AKA HE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE MOVIES so why would doug bradley willingly participate in their creation???? 

AND THIS IS NOT ALL

THE CURRENT IM WATCHING NOW REVELATIONS HAS SOME OTHER ACTOR TRYING TO COPY WHAT DOUG BRADLEY DID AND WAS :sob: :sob: :Sob: 

WHAT IS THIS PLEAS IM SOBBIN G TR RN????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

I'm being so deathly serious when I say that hellraiser 5 (inferno) could have been saved if they'd made it a chatterer backstory. like instead of locking forgettable detective guy in a timeloop or whatever it SHOULD have been revealed tht he's actually been the chatterer this whole time and all of the "engineer" kills had been his the whole time. I sound insane but I PROMISE u it makes sense if u watch the last 30 or so minutes w this thought in mind. I'm right and u CANNOT convince me otherwise

[deuterosapiens]

So uh... does anyone actually like Inferno?

I saw the genre swap, was exciting to see a detective noir Hellraiser film, and then, oh, then did I learn.

So, our first film without Clive Barker. What wonderful world of exciting new- hey, hey producers, whatcha got- hey, why do you have the screenplay to Se7en in your hand? What are you doing with that permanent marker? Why are you scratching the title out and writing Hellraiser V on the cover?

Okay, so, that might be a bit too much credit. A direct rip-off of Se7en with a coat of Hellraiser paint could be really cool. This was decidedly... not.

I'll give this sequel two things, and these two things only. No more, no less, only flesh:

The twin Cenobites feel as though they were created through sadomasochistic mutilation and therefore, while obviously designed with pointless sexiness in mind, feel compliant with the point of the Cenobites in the original novel. They appear disfigured due to the whole "pain and pleasure are the same thing" thing. This cannot be said of some of the designs in the early films. They aren't particularly interesting to look at, but they don't feel like the fucking CD thing from Hell on Earth.

The Lemarchand Box (identified as the Lament Configuration, spoken out-loud for the first time in the series) is not a Pokéball.

There's a direction these films have obviously talen that I don't much care for because it does conflict significantly with one of the most interesting aspects of film one. It's an aspect that Clive Barker himself kind of ignored in Scarlet Gospels, but since he's the creator, I'll accept his wishes on the matter. Seeing as Scarlet Gospels is clearly in greater continuity with the film than the novella, I guess I'll accept that too.

This little detail, humorously enough, I don't recall this line being in the book, is in the nail-headed Hell Priest's introduction to Kirsty: "demons to some, angels to others, explorers in the farthest reaches of pain and experience". Why do I like this line? Because it rather clearly states that they exist outside of the human morality spectrum. What that other hellsite would refer to as "blue/orange morality" (a term I do find quite useful to describing these sorts of things, I'll admit). Clearly, the later films prefer a literal Christian Hell approach, which is almost boring, as I believe it renders the idea of the Cenobites as simply outside of our realm of understanding quite pointless. Oh, so you exist to punish us for our sins. Cool. Great. Excellent.

I really hope the ploy twist here was able to fool someone. I truly hope someone was caught off guard by it. Someone watched this film and had a major Keanu Reevess style "woah!"- moment. I envy their ability to see the magic of incredibly obvious plot twists.

Oh, so you opened the Box and now you must live out an Inferno-based ironic hell as punishment for your personal indulgences. I feel as though being punished for engaging in vice, excess and sexual indulgence is kind of something the earlier films' Cenobites wouldn't really care about. All they care about is that you are having a good time, and that perhaps you'll have a better time without skin, or really, being in one piece.

Way to completely miss the mark on these characters, guys!

You like The Engineer, I like The Engineer. It's like the one singular Cenobite of the original novel that's given an actual name or title. Why did they give this title to the nail-headed Hell Priest? The Engineer is a creator of glorious devices by which to further explore the limits of the flesh (specifically, it's sundering from its owner's body). Kind of a completely different character!

This one was bad, just honestly bad. I did not enjoy this slow, introspective mess. I could get behind a slow, introspective Hellraiser, but let's not kid ourselves about what these movies are about. They are gorey films, that derive their most unpleasant imagery and fear from the beauty and horror of sex. They embrace the whole "one man's squick is another man's squee" mentality. Or they should.

I cannot reconcile this film with any real element from the previous ones. Oh, Leviathan, Lord of the Labyrinth, help me get through Hellseeker.

Just finished, Bloodline, so let's go with Inferno!

SUMMARY: Los Angeles Cop Joseph finds himself plunged into hell, forcing him to work with the demon known as Pinhead to gain possession of his puzzle box and escape from an eternity of suffering.

When you're about to lose the rights to Hellraiser:

[sesiondemadrugada]

Hellraiser: Inferno (Scott Derrickson, 2000).

[james-stark-the-writer]

holy fucking shit, Scott Derrickson really is one of the greats tbh. he came on set with something to prove and to show everybody how it's fucking done and i had an absolute fucking blast, this movie rules so much. best Hellraiser movie (so far), and you're lying to yourself if you think otherwise. this also actually feels like a Hellraiser movie (even if i wish it was even weirder sometimes) unlike the last two. holy fucking shit, this is so fucking good it's genuinely shocking.

My ★★★★½ review of Hellraiser: Inferno on Letterboxd

[mysticfrullato]

y'all why didn't anybody tell me that Hellraiser II is just a disappointing and extremely questionable piece of the saga

[optboss]

Os cenobitas de Hellraiser V mereciam um remake só pra eles.
