Hellraiser Review

Written by: Flesh4Franky   

Quote from the film:

 " Every drop of blood you spill puts more flesh on my bones. And we both want that don't we. "

                                                                                                    -- Frank

  Frank Cotter purchased a puzzle box that is supposed to open doors to the pleasures of heaven, but opens the gates of hell instead. Thus, Frank is dragged to hell where he is tortured endlessly. Eventually he is freed by his unsuspecting brother, although now he needs blood to make him whole again.  The only way he can get his hands on blood is by recruiting his brothers wife to lead strangers into the attic, where she kills them.  

  Hellraiser is amazing. It is an intense film that entertains from start to finish. This is  definitely on my top ten list, and should not be missed by any horror fan.  It has gore, a cool story, and great characters. Warning: Some of the creatures do look a bit old school, but that just adds to the charm.

 Starring: Andrew Robinson, Clare Higgins, Ashley Laurence, Sean Chapmen, Oliver Smith, Doug Bradley. Directed by Clive Barker
