>>220463908 He also jobs like a bitch in the sequel. He's overhyped, weird how he got a reputation for being scary when 1) he's a weakling pussy in the original and 2) he gets recast as a tranny in Current Year remake.
>>220464045 Yea I was gonna say I checked these out before the sequel Hellbound was the only one worth seeing I guess the first one for context but the second one was the only one actually like crazy and cool as fuck at times and weird they took it to a whole other level with the second one
>>220463908 I don't really consider Hellraiser scary, but I love the aesthetic of it, and find the atmosphere of it to be cozy, in a weird way. Almost the entire movie takes place in that one house.
Franchise needs a reboot. The "hell priests" need to be a neutral entity, like death. Not bad guys, not superhero good guys. Just guys that will show you that pain and pleasure taken to the extreme is exactly the same. You want to die afterwards because there's literally nowhere else to go. You've experienced everything there is. No point in going on.
>be me 2012ish >go to City Colleges of Chicago >take a film course >its mostly dracula, 12 angry men, art films >kid next to me is this nerdy pimply white guy >he tells me he is very close personal friends with clive barker >goes into detail about how close they are, writting love letters to each other >mfw hellraiser guy is having sex with this poor chicago boy >mfw the movie makes sense
>>220466620 If they’re completely “neutral” then they become boring. The only reason they’re scary in the first one is because they are not just after Frank who escaped Hell, they were going to take Kirsty too for the fun of it.
>First movie >"Explorers in the further regions of experience. Demons to some, angels to others," >"There is no good. There is no evil. There is only flesh". >Later movies >Actually they're just hell denizens and he was once a human lol
reminder pinhead is literally blown up by a bomb in the canonical future, and none of the other movies mention him surviving it, so canonically, that is how he dies
>>220466620 >flesh rent from body for the 10000th time >never experienced two ice cream cones in a row i think the whole premise leans obliquely toward the pain side of things, i have to say
>>220469072 She was in love with her husband’s brother who was a crazy guy that was into drugs and S&M sex and she loathed her husband for being so boring. At least that’s how it is in the book.
