Getting Clive Barker to not officially distancing himself of a new Hellraiser movie is quite the accomplishment, I'll give them that.

Saw the promo for the remake. Not a fan of the Batman voice for Pinhead.

It's not that obnoxious. It's more a heavy smoker. And the original voice was pretty darn hammy, too.

Should've had the balls to stick with the voice Pinhead has in the book where it sounds like a giddy schoolgirl.

honestly poster seems bit garbage to me, but hearing this got me interested. Just looked at the trailer, and looks like it could actually be good.

I do like that this time the lament configuration actually looks like a really confusing puzzle box thing, that would legit stump people. While first two movies were great, and the design of the box was cool, it did sort of just look like a really elegant rubix cube for kids or something.

New pin head design doesn't quite look as good as the original IMO, but it does seem to have a bit of it's own style to it, which is nice, and sort of hard to top pin head when it comes to costume design, so that's hardly a slight.

Yeah it's a film. There's been a series in development for HBO from David Gordon Green, Danny McBride and I think Michael Dougherty for some time though, completely unconnected to this movie.

Fetish gear was transgressive in the time the original was made.

I don't think it holds the same edge today.

True, and also the idea of a person with nails in their head in a grid has already been done, so bit of the shock factor is lost there as well.

Had a quick look back at a screen shot of the first movie, and I think one thing that sticks out is that the gird an the nails aren't so neat -which may of just been due to custom technology at the time- which I sort of like bit more. But again having said that the new design still works pretty well.

I wonder if they'll return to "they're weird amoral extradimensional beings of sensory extremes" or if they'll stick with the "pretty much just demons and hell" it turned into later.

That CD guy could have had just massive holes in his head with his eardrum spread over them. His need for sound amped to the highest degree so that even a whisper was pure agony.

Instead they shoved CDs in his head and called it a day lol.

Aside from the interdimensional body-mod S&M elementals, who are only in like four scenes, the original Hellraiser is basically a vampire movie as it's primarily about a horny dude coming back from the dead through the consumption of human blood.


However if it wasn't for the Cenobites I doubt it would've had enough meat on the bones to spawn so many sequels.

Right. The reason why the Ceno's in the first Hellraiser are so good is because they're in the film for like 10 minutes.

Hella spooky, hella othering.

Then they shove them into every scene for the sequels and all the cool vanishes.

He used the 36 year rule to get the rights back but it ended up being a technical situation where he regained the film rights to the original story and the first movie but none of the sequels.
