Review by Ken
4 stars out of 4
Based on horror supremo Clive Barker's tale "THE HELLBOUND HEART" and
directed by the writer himself; this rather innovative horror flick revolves
around a mystical box that opens doorways into terrifying underworlds where
grotesque demons known as Cenobites reside. These sadistic creatures want
nothing more than to drag unwitting humans down into their dark paradise and
introduce them to the perverse joys of pleasure and pain; in various
horrifying ways. Good story, realistic gore and okay special effects make
this movie a must-see for fans of the genre. The HELLRAISER series is
especially notable for introducing Pinhead; one of the most refreshing and
blood-chilling characters to seen in horror movies today.
