Full Details & Artwork for ‘Hellraiser: The Scarlet Box’

Damn! Now THIS is the Hellraiser trilogy set that we deserve. Don’t get me wrong, we’ve had some good sets in the past, anyone get Anchor Bay’s box-set which came in the puzzle box? That was cool, but it just kinda lacked on stuff once you opened it up. Now comes Arrow Films, and they are set to unleash something truly sweet, it’s entitled Hellraiser: The Scarlet Box, and it features the first three films along with a slew of extras and some glorious artwork. Read on for everything you need to know.

You can pre-order your copy from Arrow Films for £49.99 for those in the UK, and $75.73 for those of you in the States.
