If they were to bring Doug Bradley back, he should be the guy selling the box, saying "What's your pleasure,sir?" Would be kind of poetic.
No
He turned down being in this movie so doubt they will do anything
WATCHA BUYING?
He turned down a cameo to preserve his legacy as Pinhead in its current state.
@@VAL3NTIN3 no he should say "what are you buying, stranger. Heard that in a video game once......"
For Alex's comment about the two wishes for one configuration, it wasn't two wishes, he made his original wish and the Priest told him that he can't return a wish, but he can make an exchange, so he wasn't using a new one, he was just altering his original one. So the wish was unused so Riley could use it.
Spot on, this is exactly how I surmised it as well.
Yeah this makes sense
When Pinhead discusses exchange with Voight, its not a new wish that he is granted. It's like customer service. He was unhappy with the previous wish, at which point she tells him, "gifts cannot be ungiven." But they can be exchanged, she figures out that his choice of liminal configuration was not correct, so she exchanges it for leviathan which represents power. When Pinhead is finished, she waits for the girl who gets her wish.
First Configuration is Lament or Life
Second Configuration is Lore or Knowledge
Third Configuration is Lauderant or Love
Fourth Configuration is Liminal or Sensation
Fifth Configuration is Lazarus or Resurrection
Sixth Configuration is Leviathan or Power
She is offered the choice of one of them. Riley refuses to choose, even though Pinhead entices her to choose resurrection, Voight has already told her that its a trick, they never give you what you think it will be. So she chooses nothing. Pinhead interprets that as Choosing Lament or Life. To live suffering, knowing what she has done, the people that she has sent to their deaths, a long painful existence. In a sense, its as demented a choice as any of the other configurations, if death was a choice it might be a more suitable one than living a life knowing the suffering and pain that you caused on others, so in a sense Lament is just another form of torture. It's also the default configuration which is why the box is restored to the Lament Configuration.
To lament is to grieve, to mourn. A lamentation is the passionate expression of grief or sorrow; weeping.
We know what Life, Power, and Sensation is and I'm assuming Resurrection would be like they kill you in exchange for returning someone you love. My question then is I wonder what they would do if you chose Love or Knowledge? I'm drawing blanks on how they could make those 2 fucked up
@@MrFredstt My best guess for lore or knowledge would be you are granted knowledge beyond your means, but the inability to use it in someway, perhaps taken to the hell dimension and hung like a stuck pig, but happy in the knowledge you know the meaning of life?
For Love, I would also guess that since every choice is basically cursed, to even get to choose lament, you must have already sacrificed people and not have to live with it. So love would likely be that whatever you love most in the world is given to you and then taken away. Or worse Pinhead tells you that to even come this far, you must be a person whose ambitions, and ego drive you, you ignore the feelings, and emotions of others, and care nothing for the needs of anyone else but yourself, therefore you can only truly love yourself, and then they take you away.
@@MrFredstt Wouldn't knowledge have a similar outcome to franks torture from the book? In that all that information absorbed by the brain sends you into a sort of overload? In the book it's more about sensations, but I think the same would apply to knowledge. Still thinking on love though 🤔
It wasn't so much 'whoever solved the box, got targeted' in the originals. In the 2nd Movie, the blonde haired girl solves the puzzle for the Doctor but when the Cenobites go to attack her, Pinhead states "Stop. It's not hands that call us, it's desire"
Yeah, I really didn't like how the puzzle box worked this time around. So if you take the puzzle box and stab someone with it the cenobites come after them. Really stupid if you ask me. It just made the cenobites seem so mindless when in the original Pinhead could see through the bullshit and be like "uh no, that's not how it works."
The whole curiosity killed the cat or in this case it could turn you into a cenobite or a prisoner in hell like uncle frank
@@mordimor8409 300%.
huge continuity issue and lore confusion
"Its.....DESIAHHHHHHHHH"
@@mordimor8409 YES!!! Yes. The way puzzle box works in the 2022 movie really shows the writers had no idea what Hellraiser is and didn't understand first thing about it; let alone concepts of demons, sin and redemption explored in the story.
It's absolutely hilarious one could literally commit a murder with the box to get themselves out of damnation lol??? "Hellraiser 2022: Murder is Good and Saves you from Hell!"
We made the puzzle boxes practical. I 3D modelled them from the brilliant concepts and the team at Makinarium UK built them with internal mechanics. Beautiful pieces. I can’t wait to see it. Jamie put her heart and soul into the project and the director and sound production worked so hard. I also hope there is a sequel! Great review guys…
keep up the good work if what you say is true!
hey
Awesome! Huge Clive Barker fan and can't wait to see this one!
That's awesome, love the new look and functionality of the puzzle box! Hope they make replicas.
@@shadowulfhedinn8261 So do I! I can put renders up on Instagram after release. I want to make a set for the office - it's on the list of thing to do...
In the lore Leviathan hates humans. It is believed that it was one of the fallen angels. That's why whenever a human comes near it , it tortures the shit out of you. It tried to make a dimension without human life, but they kept finding it and it turn them into cenobites
If Hulu keeps handing properties like this, I would love to see them tackle Judge Dredd, maybe another movie or a series like the comics it was based on, but you gotta bring back Karl Urban, he's even more grizzled now and would be an even better fit for Dredd then he was ten years ago.
They based in Judge Dredd on dirty Harry, imagine if they tried using a deep fake Eastwood after he's dead to be Dredd, you only need his chin and voice after all;)
I do hope not. Judging by what they did to Hellraiser, they'd dconvert Dredd, a story which questions concepts of law and justice and how they correlate, into a story where all criminals have to do to be let off is murder a Judge.
(equivalent to being released from hell by stabbing someone else with the box).
Absolutely not.
AJ was exaggerating; this HR was average. Just look up the scores online. I've just watched it also, and I think the same.
On top of that, I don't know if these writers can be offensive enough to make JD. They're following the trend of the gender swapping cult, in the end.
Ooh I agree! Dredd is always an amazing time when you're wanting to watch an action movie with friends, if they kept that vibe and made him more grizzled it'd be a treat.
If I had a nickel for everytime Hulu did well for a horror franchise this year, I'd have 2 nickels. It isn't much but I'm DAMN WELL HAPPY IT HAPPENED TWICE!
prey is not horror. (and sucks besides that)
@@mrbigjonstud wUMeNNN rEeEEee
Prey was very damn average, but when the bar is this low everything is good
yeah i wasn't expecting much from prey and tbh it was ok, it wasn't the best though. Better than The predator and avp requiem tbf though those are pretty low bars
@@Havrank dude that movie is ass and everyone jumps to that response to defend that pos
To be fair. The Cenobites were on equal footing in "The Hellbound Heart." There was no real standout Pinhead type Cenobite.
cmon, I dont think that way, they all had amazing designs I think!
@@FablesOutofSpace I don't think he was referring to the desings but to one of them being more important than the others.
@@heishinigami hmm yeah probably:)
It’s such a shame Prey wasn’t on the big screen now this one too HellRaiser… Hulu is knocking it out of the park. I really hope Prey comes to blu ray.
How this and Pray didn't get to be in theaters is a crime.
Edit: To those of you who who pointed out the misspelling - Those comments are hilarious keep them up 🤣.
To those of you who feel the need to tell me how Prey sucks - That's just like your opinion man 😎.
*Prey
Pray? Is that the new Christian movie about the Predator saying grace before eating dinner?
The Predator spreading the word of the Christ. Pray or become prey
Lol not even gonna dogg on ya for the mistype lol 😂
.
I love how they said don’t let kids watch the film. I actually got into Hellraiser as a kid in the 90’s lol
Hula dropping bangers. When I was like 8 my sister let me watch the first Hellraiser and iv been traumatized ever since lol.
Damn, my expectations for this movie was ZERO.
I will see it now.
Same ^
I always knew it was going to be good because it’s directed by David Bruckner who did the amateur night section of VHS.
Even after seeing the trailer...? That's sad
is it out or no
@@1az3r91 If you are referring to the film vhs and its sequels for sure.
Sometimes it's just nice to hear the boys talk movies, even when I don't even watch the movie it's entertaining to hear some genuine banter about any media out there. Reminds me of just rambling with my nerd friends about movies and games. I hope you guys continue the good work and I can continue to watch this into my 30s and 40s lmao
ha same here
Agreed 😎
Agreed. Even more so with the Red Letter Media folks.
The skin on the side of your finger peeling up way more than you want it to is such a great description 🤣
"There's nowhere to go but up after Hellraiser 7"- Guess he missed 8-10?😅
everything that happened to that rich dude was just tragic, after finally getting that torture contraption off of him after all those years he ends up in a even more torturous situation although he seemed to have become some kind of pain god or something in pain heaven that last scene at the end of him becoming a cenobite was awesome it looked heavenly and hellish at the same time
The genie's lamp, the puzzlebox, is truly opened by the 'soul' or desire of the seeker of pain and pleasure, it's that level of intention that really drives one to 'open' it. And that's how its solvers bring forth the cenobite dimension.
Yep, this new film kinda destroys that, its a shame. But I guess people seem to think that as long as there are chains and dismemberment, its fine. Definitely not a fan of how they handled things here
very shocked it's doing well. there hasn't been a good hellraiser movie since the 90's. man, i'm loving september and october for horror movies. this is one of the better horror seasons ever for me. Loved Barbarian and Smile, and now I get Hellraiser, Terrifier 2, and Halloween Ends (skeptical of this one). Still, what a dang good two months it is for horror fans.
So they stayed truer to the source with Pinhead? He was not suppose to be more than just another Cenobite.
I am glad he was in the originals because he is unique to the genre.
Just watched this last night, Very impressed with this one. I too loved the added lore to the box and in my opinion Voight was a very interesting character throughout and just brutal with his (gift) from the Cenobites! Well done!
Back in the 90’s Hellraiser was one of those NO NO movies that you were NOT allowed to watch, so when I actually saw it as an adult I was surprised to see how contained it actually is, and how violent & disturbing it actually wasn’t. Great movie though.
I think it was probably Uncle Frank's return that got it tagged as a video nasty, unlike something like Brain Dead and Bad Taste which were full on gore throughout
I… did not think I’d be okay with this. I’ve been a huge Hellraiser fan since I was 12, Doug Bradley was THE only Pinhead… even 3 makes me happy… and then someone else finally did the character justice. I’ll be watching this with hellish glee. Guess this is what happens when you cast by who does the character best rather than tick boxes! ❤
I believe the cenobite that passed the lawyer was asphyxiate who was attracted to the patient gasping for air. It's like the pull of that cenobites desired suffering was greater than acquiring the lawyer.
Hulu killing it right now can’t wait to check this out
I’m sorry guys. I’ve seen tons of horror movies, I’ve seen the first 5 Hellraiser movies, I’ve read The Hellbound Heart… this is a bad movie. This is not good. I wanted it to be good. It’s bad
Same. Still have my 80s copy of Hellbound Heart. This movie just had no girth. True horror fans arnt going to like this one
@@evilmothers7691 “they didn’t shy away from the gore”. Yes they absolutely did. Did we see ANYONE die on screen? Anyone?
@@docholliday4537 I said the same thing to myself after the second death. I usually agree with Joe's horror movie reviews but he can miss me with this one
@@evilmothers7691 spoiler alert: Joe is paid off.
@@Gomezli16 what makes you say that
Dr Channard “ To think I hesitated “ was a great Cenobite in the sequel. I must check this out, good review
The actor is style active, so would be fun to have him play the character again;)
Hulu coming through this year with some good movies love it
24:50 the cenobite didn’t pass her purposely, it was the blind clicking one. She was being silent so even when it entered her room it couldn’t find her
In the comics, apparently the main character lady from the first 2 movies made a deal with pinhead and basically traded places with him becoming the hell priestess (basically female pinhead) as he was getting bored of all the same torture and was losing interest in it. I wonder if that is who is in this new hellraiser.
Hulu has been knocking it out of the park lately Prey now this!!! great stuff.
Prey.
Prey, Fresh, Hellraiser...they're on a roll!
@@Fuzzycat16 🤓, auto correct is a thing lmao touch some grass
Seems like they're getting filmmakers who actually care about the movie and see it as a project, not a product.
i watched prey because joe liked it
but its really not that good
It's rare for there to be a good horror movie remake. This is one of those rare moments.
I understand thi is more of a re-imagining rather than just a remake, so maybe that's why.
This is "the thing" and "the fly" situation almost
There's the evil dead soft reboot which is really good
That's because it's not a remake
@@freyjaskeeper3434 yeah i guess, not a hard reboot
Im counting down the hours for this to drop! Massive Fan of the first 4 and Judgment! Great to hear you guys enjoyed it!!!
Judgement is so underrated. 3rd one was pretty weak in my opinion but 1, 2 and 4 yeah probably the best in the original series. Also enjoyed Inferno.
The Cenobites did killings in Hellraiser 3 and other films. There was cd Hellraiser and the twin Hellraiser. The first Hellraiser had limited dialogue for the cenobites because of the costumes.
@Joe kinda new to youtube, I texted reply to that number, hope that was correct. Big fan of the show and big hellraiser fan.
@@RED-sn9rt NO, THAT IS A BOT! THATS THE FAKE JOE SHOW. DO NOT FALL FOR IT!
@@RED-sn9rt It's spam don't reply
Every single one of these streaming reviews I always get excited thinking the film or series has been released, then just sadness realizing it's still days away.
I typed in google its release date and it said the 4th but then I looked further and it said the 7th.
@@johnweinzetl4820 did the same thing.
Me too bro I thought I was going crazy thank yall lo.l whats even more confusing is giving early reviews for a streaming service
Hulu originals are amazing.
I can't believe you've never reviewed the Hulu original series for CATCH 22.. it's stellar!
Angry Blow Jobs reviews are L takes anyways
@@gomezaddams9221 If they're L takes why are you watching his reviews?
Hulu made really good horror movies a few years back with the Hulu After Dark movies. No movies were connected but nearly all of them were really good.
The fact this and Prey ended up on Hulu instead of theaters is kind of sad. I’m glad I can just watch it at home, but it would’ve been nice to see them both in theaters.
are you serious prey sucks lmao
@@REALdavidmiscarriage Hard disagree, I loved it, and I'm not alone there
@@emiloguechoons9030 a lot of people love justin bieber whats your point lol
Whats so great about prey? I‘d rather watch something like apocalypto...
@@REALdavidmiscarriage It was good.
@@REALdavidmiscarriage >a lot of people love justin bieber
This analogy doesnt work, Bieber was very popular commercially and so so critically.
Prey likely wasnt seen by many relative to other action films but was well regarded critically.
Who would of guessed that Hulu would have two good hit from two different horror franchises? Kudos
Is predator really horror though? More like sci-fi/action
Also it is managed by Disney
@@David-nd4to it's like slightly horror
@@David-nd4to Sci-fi thriller?
Which was the other one?
I found the lead actress to be very annoying. Also the device the Roland guy had in him looked like something out of Jupiter Ascending or some shit.
I did watch Hocus-pocus this morning after your review of Hocus-pocus 2. The movie was okay, I don't think it will be my list of movies to rewatch during Halloween. But from what you said about the sequel, I will avoid it as I rather remember Hocus-pocus when it was decent.
It feels like a true sequel to the 2nd film. In that there's a lot of ideas explored in comics and books to the point where Christie takes over as the hell priest and rips apart the original that we grew up with. I was so happy to see it come back to what it was about rather then this heaven and hell bs.
so glad to hear it turned out good. Too many great franshises got butchered and left to die
Watch it first before saying it's good
It's great that Hulu is getting more recognition now but they've been making good stuff for a while now. Even before Prey, they had Fresh, Palm Spring, Minding the Gap. Not to mention their original shows like The Dropout, Pam & Tommy, Dopesick, etc.
Fresh was absolutely fantastic!!!
disney owns hulu i hope you realize that
@@n9ne what big corporation doesnt own something. Does that mean we can't enjoy a film?
@@AfamKingo Easier to herd people with this mindset.
hulu is far better then that junk disney+...but i will never pay disney for content they consider second tier.people are stupid for supporting this kind of scam,there are already too much streaming services without this one studio owning 2-3 services shit...
The script could have used some work imho to make the characters less one dimensional. For example: The mansion could have been a "getaway" type of recovery for the MC, who finds the box and becomes addicted to solving it and accidentally killing her friends as they try to help her. At the end, she finds out it was a plot by the billionaire, so she kills him with the Leviathan configuration and she chooses to resurrection in order to "bring back her friends". However, she is then made into a leader of a cenobite gash herself and her friends are resurrected as her cenobite followers. Of course, plot and drama would be added, but yea - that would have tied the book with the comics as far as lore goes.
Great movie. I was actually happy to hear the original theme song. The Cenobites were awesome, and the whole story wrapped up nice, no hints of a sequel, which I'm happy about, although I'm sure there will be .
that ending signals sequel:)
@@FablesOutofSpace
Spoiler warning ⚠️ kinda
not really. It just shows what happens when you make decisions. it gives closure
I enjoyed it too. It certainly felt like a Hellraiser. A bit formulaic at times. The first Hellraiser really stood out in that it didn't follow conventional horror tropes. It was really a mystery where you're being drawn into an increasingly horrifying rabbit hole. And this one does something similar albeit with the more typical "group of friends getting involved in shit that gets them killed" kind of way.
I was expecting more gore and mutilations though. For the first half of the movies, a lot of the deaths was implied. It got better later on, but I think in terms of body horror, the 2nd one would still be the most extreme (and why it holds a special place for me).
I wanted a bit more gore and a lot more subtext and substance. The original Hellraiser had so much going on, and no sequel (including this one) has been able to replicate that.
took the words straight from my brain, they should've shown the first few kills. The first hellraiser starts out gory as fuck showing the upclose chains hooking into flesh and I'll never forget the doctor cenobite getting the top of his head ripped off in the 2nd one
This movie was horrible. When you open the box everyone in the room was sent to an eternity of torture and turned into a cenobite. They didn’t even flinch when the lady was taken in the back of the van. Common. Boo
It so rare for a old franchises reboot to be good since most studios are too busy focusing on member berries or relying on nostalgia instead of actual making a fresh new movie to said franchise.
See I always like the original where the box is basically going after people who have desire as opposed to someone just getting nicked because I feel like that is what made it even worse because anyone can just not open the box or open the box you know it's a very conscious choice but you're greed and your desire could be less controllable and you actually have to resist those things that are there and if you don't well then the box will summon the cenobites and they will claim you I mean basically it's like you could force someone else to open a who has absolutely no desire and does not wish to know anything and that's not going to keep you safe no matter what you do you're greed and your desire is what will make call forth the centabytes and they will come for you
I still think the desire is there tbh. Like, ok, REALISTICALLY the only time anyone SHOULD be getting nicked is when they're messing with the box. It's only because Riley accidentally survived that it seems the cenobytes had to implement different rules. Like, Riley WAS tempted to open it, it's just that she didn't fulfill her end of the deal so to speak. If anything it might be even more torturous to have people close to you ripped away...
Dude that was one hell of a word soup
being able to finally witness the creation of a cenobite was worth the price of admission alone: the fact no one ever thought about going in this lore direction was always mindblowing to me!
Did you not see Hellbound? Voight was basically Dr. Channard. This was almost a Hellraiser 2 remake. Really good but only the LeMerchant Box lore was new.
@@chadmcdeadlift6792 ye hellbound was the "better" one of the sequels...although it was far from a good movie, it was decent compared to the horrible mess of the othes
What the hell are you talking about.
They established this and hellbound hellraiser 2
And went into great detail in the hellraiser comics
Lol someone didn’t see any hell raiser after 1
I've seen all the Hellraiser movies and just finished watching the one on Hulu 🤔 It was mediocre. I give it a 5 out of 10.
The old Hellraiser movies are still way better.
The main character in this movie was annoying at the beginning and she was annoying at the end.
The first two hellraiser movies are amazing for a back to back watch, I remember being so immersed when they travel to hell and Leviathan made me so uneasy.
gave me chills when pinhead stopped her prayer, side note i would get a uhaul and empty that house of all it values, im owed something for losing so much lol
Glad everyone had so much time to talk. Great job joe!
HOLY CRAP I WON!?!?!?! BETTER GO CLICK THIS IMMEDIATELY!!!!
Oops I accidently reported it for hate speech.
I am hoping I can see this movie soon.
The rich guy could have exchanged his gift for lament configuration, but even then he was blind by the possibilities and chooses another "gift". Surprised more people haven't realized this.
Do you guys get screeners from Hulu?? I still can’t watch this on Hulu until tonight at 9pm
Alex an OJs face when joe starts getting hard for the hellraiser gore 😂
Wait it was actually GOOD? Holy fuck it’s a miracle
Watch it first before getting excited
yes do watch it first, cause i couldnt wait for the lead actors to die, they were annoying as hell
Its good for what it is.
Its ok… enjoyable even! But not scary
How can I watch this movie in Canada? Hulu isn’t available in Canada and it’s not on Disney+!
I was an Usher at a local theater for the ORIGINAL Hellraiser and MAN - the SEX that was contained in it, for the time, was just off the rails - and memorized by every dude that worked there with me. When the time came to "make sure everything was going alright in the theater" there were at least two Ushers checking that theater (there were only to LARGE screens at that theater, in a mall). This was also enhanced because we were wearing - BROWN TUXEDOS. Ahhh, the memories... Glad to hear that this new one is on a glidepatch that I give a shit about. I didn't watch anything beyond 3 (lured only because of Terry Farrell being in it) and am glad I didn't take the time to consume them. Thanks, Guys!
The movie scares me so I won’t watch it but I’m glad you guys enjoyed it.
Also I’m surprised that it was on Disney+.
Gahhhhh!!! This makes me so happy! It’s so rare for all 3 to like a movie.
I’ve been waiting for this remake (now reboot) since 2006 and to know that the wait has been worthwhile is just thrilling!
It wasn't 2 wishes. Vogt exchanged his wish, he didn't make another wish.
Totally stoked for this but it's not out in my region yet. 😥 Binged some making-ofs for the latex suits to tide me over 😅
Every review now Alex needs every single backstory and detail spelled out for him during the already 2 hr long movie.
Absolute garbage. They had complete creative freedom too capture the essence of hell. Instead they focused on being woke and creating a shitty freddy kreuger movie. I implore this director to watch the 2013 evil dead and take notes. Any fan of this movie is a fan of the new texas chainsaw massacre . And that speaks for itself
Ahh you forgot about Hellraiser 2 Joe, you actually see the process for cenobite creation when Leviathan made a replacement to punish Pinhead and his group.
@Angry Joe she wasn't Pinhead, she was Hell Priestess which took over for Pinhead
It looks that way! But since this is a reboot, it may just be a pinhead like
No UK release date for this, so annoying.
(UPDATE: Director David Bruckner did offer some insight into the international release. “To the Hellraiser fans outside the US, Spyglass and Paramount are working to firm up release dates,” he tweeted. “I’m told we should have answers in the next week or so.”
If Paramount is handling international distribution, that means there are three potential avenues of release. The first is that the film will stream on Paramount Plus later this year, the second is that it’ll head to blu-ray in 2023, and the final option is that it will get a theatrical release later in the year or in early 2023.)
So basically we won’t get to see the film until 2023. This kind of shit makes my blood boil 😡. We always miss out I’m sick of it.
Torrent it
@@MN-sb4pr I haven't done that in years, and don't have a VPN. Any reccomended sites for torrens these days?
Ended up using a VPN myself to watch it but damn if we haven't been screwed this year with release dates. Pearl, Barbarian and now this😪
@@coreycarnegie5990 Even if I got a VPN I read that Hulu doesn't except most UK payment methods 🤔. Yeah it's an absolute joke, also lose out on tons of physical media releases.
I just watched it on my chipped firestick. Updated it earlier and it appeared. Literally just after finishing it. Great show. Get yourself a firestick and get someone local to work their magic on it and voila!
This and Smile right now are killing it, 2022 October is crushing the horror game at the moment.
And the new Halloween movie coming out this has been a good horror movie year
Hopefully terrifier 2 is good
The Cenobite at the hospital for the lawyer was blind and only reacts to loud noises which you’ll see at the end when it breaks apart and runs after Riley.
I just don't need more than 1 and 2 or even 3. I did enjoy some of the rest here and there but overall I respect it's legendary status based off of just 1 and 2. I've Met Doug Bradley and he was awesome and yeah so I mean I will check this out when I am bored and craving something new looking and not an oldie
the original cenobites couldn't move their mouths much with the makeup and prosthetics so pinhead got all the lines
Yo Hulu going crazy with these movies!!!
I forgot that there was new hellraiser movie. I kind of wrote this off in my head without giving it a chance because:
1 - Most of the hellraiser movies suck. Let’s face it, after 126 entries in the franchise it’s a bit played out by now.
2 - Hollywood in 2022 is creatively bankrupt.
Really glad to hear that you guys enjoyed it and I’ll definitely check this one out now.
I wonder how the Cenobites would feel if they ever got ahold of one of the rare people that can't feel pain. Bored? I imagine the person would still be immensely traumatized knowing they're being damaged, but the Cenobites believe physical pain is pleasure. It would probably be a letdown if their subject felt no pain and died of a heart attack...
in the book they would give you so much pleasure till the point it was painful sensory wise. if I remember right when they first take you they could give you the feeling of being a baby in your mother's arms.
Thought this during the movie lol
As a Hellraiser fan (well, 1&2), one of the things i always liked the most was how they were about actual characters, and not just a bunch of teens waiting to be killed off. The worst hellraiser movies always end up being the ones that try to do that stuff. (mostly because the majority of the later sequels were dead end horror scripts that they just stuck pinhead in)
The only standout of those re-worked scripts was Inferno… though that’s not saying too much. At the very least it setup the character as living in his own personal hell.
So instead of teens the 20 somethings getting picked off was an upgrade for you?
@@gravityslave6277 Larry and Julia are clearly way older than that. He's at least 40, and she's probably 30. And it has nothing to do with age, but with character. A group of teens in a horror movie are always cliches who get picked off. The characters in the first hellraiser are a family with history and problems, that are infinitely more important to the plot than just the magic puzzle box. Frank wouldn't even be able to escape without Julia pining for him.
@@antipothis
Who are Larry and Julia? I'm talking about the *main* cast of roommates and sleeveless guy in the beginning. Reily, Nora, Colin, Trevor, Matt etc.
The ones being chased and picked off in the van and big scary mansion like every other teen horror movie. Go on IMDB...they were all born in the 1990's.
@@gravityslave6277 I was always talking about the original hellraiser
David Bruckner's directing is always fun to watch. I loved The Night House a cool psychological horror about grief. I thought this was solid too! It's a good look I think they can build something even better from here.
The cenobite moves past the lawyer in the hospital because it is blind, hence it moves towards the old man wheezing. This is the same cenobite that they lure into the house to stab with the box towards the end and why it stands still when Riley slowly approaches it.
Also, I believe that Voight isn't being granted a wish, only an exchange - Pinhead lost a cenobite outside the house, so encourages him to choose power to get a new one (as I see it). The wish belongs to Riley alone.
40:00 Original leader of the Cenobites was not Pinhead but this weird Cenobite with light coming out of its eye sockets and mouth called The Engineer.
For those who don't know, every Hellraiser sequel after the third film had no involvement from Clive Barker, and all the films after the fourth were made taking non-Hellraiser scripts that Dimension Films had laying around, doing a quick Hellraiser themed rewrite, and churning out a direct to video movie solely so they could retain the film rights to the franchise. Clive Barker was able to regain the film rights for Hellraiser 2022, thank Leviathan.
I just saw Hellraiser 2022 and it wasn't that great.
@@ShineLikeaProAZ Ok. I liked the movie a lot, you not as much. That's the beauty of individuality.

You go girl 👏 👧.....
Not only was this filmed in my home town [Belgrade], but the park scene was filmed in a park in front of my mom’s apartment building in the city center. And I was actually visiting at that time and saw the filming crew but stupidly never asked them for context. This just made me enjoy the movie even more! Glad you guys also liked it. We often share tastes and you quickly became my go-to channel as your critiques are always balanced. Also always good to see Alex in a shirt 😉 P.S. the park indeed has a dingy public toilet but they created a new one with green screen.
Just finished it. It was ok… the last 30 minutes really dragged for me and just wasn’t really that suspenseful. Didn’t care for any of the characters either. I try not to expect much but I think my expectations were decently high after seeing the trailer so I screwed myself there lol
*LORE* *PSA* the person who gets the wish.. is when you get marked after the “power” configuration. In the beginning you’ll see the puzzle box as a diamond shape and Voight gets his wish…. Then exchanged at the end. AND because Riley stabbed her boyfriend WITH that “power” configuration she was able to *CHOOSE* her wish.
I've never seen any Hellraiser movies, is this one ok to start with?
This is a reboot, so feel free to do so.
@Ian Orchard... I watched the first two for the first time in the last two weeks. Definitely please start with those!
I'm jealous you guys have early access to movies. It is not listed yet on Hulu.
It is kinda weird for people to have early acess to this for the fact it's on a streaming platform and not a theater
@@gggggggggg44100 especially if those that have early access are content creators on RUclips. By them reviewing the movie leads to spoilers. So for movies released on streaming platforms it should be same day access.
@@socaltrojan286 completely agree! I could have swore it showed that it was supposed to release today to but they changed it to the 7th when I looked
@@gggggggggg44100 yup your correct i went to go watch it today and it wasn't there then I checked the release date again and it was changed
@@promontag3 thank you I knew I wasn't crazy lol
Is possible to acquire the dvd or bluray of it?
Setting and the vibe was great. The story dragged on a bit much at the end. With how much they were willing to show, I still feel they held back. Pinhead is pretty lackluster in this. It all looks to clean as well. Cenobites should’ve been a bit moist lol
The last Hellraiser is super slept on. Highly recommend everyone checks it out, probably the best since the 3rd one.
Judgement wasn't bad. It was very paced well and the actor for Pinhead was good.
"The Box, You opened it...."
“we came!”
I NUTTED!
"oh don't cry,it's such a waste of suffering"
I love 1,2 and 4. This I am so amped to see this and add it to my collection as I have all 10.
do somebody know if it come to Disney+?
theres no hulu in many countries in europe and i would love to see it.
if someone know something pls comment 🙏.
i red that it will come oct. 7th to D+ but im not sure if this is really true tho
Just finished watching it...and yes, this film has such sights to show you😆
This was a fun watch and it felt great that the franchise came back strong for once!!!
This is not the first time we see a Cenobite transformation. In hellraiser 2 they show the proccess when it happens to Dr. Channard.
Yee
I would just look at the character as "The priest", not Pinhead. For me, it's a different character. That way I don't feel the old character is ruined, instead of just getting a new character with potential.
Yay a good horror movie I’ll take it
