i did that last summer.
DON'T
Stop at 2, or 3 if you want ironic laughs, but you are in for some real hell if you go beyond.
>not just watching 1 & 2
OH NO
Good part 1 and 2, meh 3 and downhill plunge with 4 followed by repeated ripoffs of another movie (you'll know which movie when you see it) ad nauseum.
2 good movies, a bad one, then a fun one, then a non-stop marathon of increasingly bad shit. Inferno apologists leave immediately.
2 good movies
first 3 are good, 4/5 are ok, 6/7/8 are meh to subpar, 9 is godawful and made to keep the IP but 10 is pretty ok. Though it might be ok because of how bad the ones prior to it were.
oh shit, is it so bad? I watched the first 2 ones and I really liked them
1 2 and 4 are the only watchable ones being perfectly honest, I did the same thing a couple years ago and it was a massive waste of time.
The later movies exist so Dimension films could keep the rights. Doug Bradley gave up after a while. They're bad.
This. 2 was actually pretty bad, but it was still a Hellraiser movie, it still had the same spirit as the first one. 3 was just a campy slasher flick with characters borrowed from the Hellraiser universe, I guess it might be worth a laugh if you like exploitation movies anyway. 4 had some good ideas, although it's bad, and the expanded lore is probably all apocryphal. And then everything else is just complete trash.
>2 was actually pretty bad
It's better than the first one by a country mile
OP here, all right I'll watch the frist 4, and then skip directly to 10
I'm sorry, but 10 is crap too.
amazing atheist's cousin reviewed em all in order, its pretty entertaining, and a good quick run down, cinemacynics
Yeah it's shit and I kinda like bad horror movies
The first two are really good.
I like the third one because Doug Bradley gets to chew a bunch of scenery and has one of my favorite hellraiser lines ever.
Plus the /u/ goggles with best dax and her roomate.
Just stop after Hellraiser fights a guy who looks suspiciously like Luke Skywalker while in space. Everything else is worthy of puzzle box punishment.
1 and 2 are pure KINO 3 is alright others sucks dick
The first 5 minutes or so of the third one really creeped me out as a kid. Idk, its so frantic.
The first one is the best and it's not a good movie. Good luck mate.
At this point I just want to see how bad the next Hellraiser will be.
Maybe a Netflix anime adaptation, where the Lament Configuration is in a Japanese all girl athlete school?
1-2 form a loose narrative and are decent.
3 is just goofy and has pinhead hamming it up, lots of explosions and there's a motorhead song at the end.
4 is mildly interesting except for the IN SPACE part.
5-9001 I can't say but at least 2 of them are basically Twilight Zone episodes with a cameo by pinhead at the end. One of them has Kirsty in it. Eventually they just become perfunctory garbage shat out so the studio doesn't lose the rights.
She could tear my soul apart any day.
Based Hellraiser threads.
I also like the third one because of Doug Bradley's freedom to just go around being awesome and spouting off epic nonsense. The early 90s horror sequels pretty much made a habit of stomping on every good thing about their predecessors, but some have their redeeming qualities.
blooldline is the best hellaiser movie
I don't care how many good comedies he's in, he will always be this character to me
I can’t recommend watching all of them, 1 and 2 are good and 3 is dumb in a kinda fun way but 4+ are all just kinda bad.
>>at least 2 of them are basically Twilight Zone episodes with a cameo by pinhead at the end.
You mean all of them from 5 onward.
isnt pinhead in the same universe as freddy and jason?
shame that Ash vs. Jason vs. whoever the fuck never panned out. we needed a good "hero" to pit against these movie monsters in an epic crossover. that's why FvJ was always doomed, who wins? neither are the good guy, and making Jason the more sympathetic one was lame. we need someone for the majority of people to root for on a subconscious level.
Dont know if its canon but it was supposed that he would appear on the final scene of freddy vs jason
there were comics that put him in the same universe as the Nightbreed.
>feet hurt
Only watch 1 and 2, everything afterwards is pretty bad.
A great start and complete decline from there, until you reach 5 and you're like "This is different but I like it" and then from there it drops again to levels thought unreachable.
you're a good guy for using the theatre term "chew the scenery", user.
First two and maybe the origin sequence in bloodlines, that's it.
>the original film isn't good
Holy shit
I tried to watch it all and couldn't make it to the end. I got to the space movie one and gave up.
Shame they didn't do more with the story and go into more detail on some of the other freaks
This, but for the love of God, Satan, and Krishna together do NOT WATCH ANYTHING WITHOUT DOUG BRADLEY AS PINHEAD.
I thought they were Jacob's Ladder knockoffs
caught inferno at 2 am on some cable network when i was a teenager, found it quite good, but that might have had more to do with it being 2 am and me being in the right set of mind. plus i was a teenager so not exactly the most rigorous movie critic
What was the Cenobytes’ problem? Why can’t they just fap normally?
Very similar circumstance.
It was the right place at the right time.
that demonic hallway monitor touched them after class
You'll find that Hellraiser 5 is unironically the best one since the first movie and that the rest are fucking ungodly trash, especially the ones after 5.
