@@Bradford659 The newest one is an actual story written for the movie series. It was written and directed by one of the original make-up artists who is very passionate about the Hellraiser movies.

To give you more context about the themes in this movie it's helpful to know Clive Barker was a big fan of the fetish community. That's why the cenobites are all wearing black leather and talking about mixing pain and pleasure. "We are explorers in the further regions of experience" is a very telling line.

Thank you for reacting to this one! I saw this back in 1988, when I was 14 years old. It is one of my absolute favourite horror movies ever - mostly because it is so unyielding! Almost every horror movie has lighthearted moments, or a funny line here or there, to ease up the tension... But Hellraiser does not. It is just pitch f**king black throughout! And, as you pointed out yourselves, the special fx makeup, that today in 2020 is 33 years old, is incredible!!

Big facts

[@Greenwood4727]

Clive barker was/is an author, he sold the rights to one of his books and he said they sort of used about 7 lines, (transmutation/underworld). he was pissed off so he decided to direct hellraiser himself,the first and second are almost direct sequels following on from each other.

[@Magus99]

When I saw this for the first time in the theater in 1987, I couldn't sleep for a week!! It pushed horror into a new...dimension.

[@otterpoet]

Great video! So glad I found it. Sixteen-year-old me snuck into _Hellraiser_ on opening night back in '87. The audience - myself included - were utterly blown away by the imagery and violence. There really was nothing like it at the time. Literally, when the credits rolled, you could hear fifty people *finally* let out their held breath, all at once.

[@HideousConformity]

Something that set this movie apart from pretty much everything coming out of Hollywood at the time was the fact that the Cenobites (Pinhead in particular) were far more 'intellectual' than other movie monsters, who all tended to follow one of two formulas: they were either wisecracking smartasses like Freddy Krüeger for example, or mute killing machines like Jason Vorhees. As a matter of fact the production company wanted Barker to make Pinhead more like Freddy Krüeger, but he absolutely refused. Another thing perhaps is the fact that Frank and Julia were the real antagonists, rather than the Cenobites filling that function - which likely had been the case if Hollywood had their way. Sadly they did from the third movie onwards... Hellraiser 5 through 8 weren't actually Hellraiser movies originally. The studio simply acquired some scripts for cheap and rewrote them to include Pinhead. They had to produce a Hellraiser movie every few years in order to keep the license. The 9th movie was written specifically for that purpose. They outright told the director and script writer that they didn't care about the quality of the movie as long as they had something they could release before the deadline, and they shot that crapfest in just a couple of weeks iirc. It's some of the worst crap I've seen, so bad that I haven't bothered to watch the 10th movie, despite hearing that it's relatively decent.

[@GenetMJF]

Yeah like... Pinhead is scary for sure but he wasn't a villain. He was just doing his job

[@83shadow3]

Agreed Pinhead in this one an the .2nd one an in Hellraiser judgement he is just doing his job. There are rules he just enforces them . If one finds their way to hell because. They are drown there that's whare they stay.

[@MrOffroadjunkie]

The last one is surprisingly good, definitely worth a watch

[@bryguysays2948]

Actually Judgement wasn't that bad. It easily was better than Revelations.

[@GreenBoxStudio1]

I personally think 5 is underrated, from what I remember Pinhead was back to being like in the first 2 and wasn’t an outright villain, just doing his job as a hellpriest

[@bradleyelsken622]

I would suggest Poltergeist, The Shining, Alien. Those three are absolute horror classics, in my opinion. Hellraiser 2 is pretty good, 3 is alright, the rest are debatably bad

Clive Barker (born 5 October 1952) is an English playwright, novelist, film director, and visual artist. Barker came to prominence in the mid-1980s with a series of short stories, the Books of Blood, which established him as a leading horror writer. He has since written many novels and other works, and his fiction has been adapted into films, notably the Hellraiser and Candyman series.

The second one goes more into Pinhead's history. He was a British captain who served in WW1 and found himself traumatized at the things he and his countrymen were forced to do to people in their attempt to win the war. He traveled abroad afterward, wandering about aimlessly searching for ways in which to bury his trauma until at last he came upon the box.

At times I’m a bit envious you’re getting to enjoy this classics for first time been a while for me since I saw a classic for the first time.

[@rebeccahopkins9522]

First off-SORRY I WROTE SO MUCH. But Hellraiser is of my all time favorite films (like the Exorcist, I also watched this movie alone the first time I ever saw it. I was 11; YEP. My cousin had the VHS tape and I watched it over there alone in his room-without my parents knowledge 😂 and it terrified me. That resurrection scene using practical effects was truly incredible, original and revolutionary in its time. There was nothing remotely like it when this came out. It was extremely scary in its time. And this film at its core is a depraved, super horrific version of extreme S&M, mixed with murder, monsters from hell (they are actually called cenobites. And the lead guy is Pinhead-he’s a legendary character now but not then-then he was an underground character that belonged to us the fans), lots of blood and the concept that in hell, pain is the only pleasure. And sometimes hell comes looking for you to tear your soul apart. So be weary of boxes with puzzles🤣This film also gives me a lot of feels of nostalgia-my friends and I all knew the lines from this one and the second one, as well as Evil Dead 1,2 and 3 (because they have incredible, endlessly quotable dialogue that is a fun as hell to say) and we’d interject them (the Jesus Wept line was everything😂) at appropriate -and inappropriate 😉- moments and no one other than our circle would know what we were talking about, and it was like our secret knowledge-kind of like people who quote Star Wars to each other... but way cooler😂 and way more obscure. Hellraiser is based on a novella by one of my all time favorite authors, the legendary Clive Barker. Clive Barker in my opinion is one of, if not thee, greatest, most original, imaginative, incredibly detailed and brilliant fantasy horror writers of all time. If you’ve never read his novels and story collections, you’ve been missing out big time. Check out the Books Of Blood Vol. 1&2, Imajica, and The Great And Secret Show, and go from there. Hellraiser is based on Barker’s novella “The Hellbound Heart”. But he’s written a lot of novels and collections. He’s a very prolific writer. As well as being an incredible artist that does his own illustrations in his novels, anthologies and short stories. I love Stephen King’s novels as you do, and King is a master in his own right. But Clive Barker is truly on a whole other level. I’ve yet to find a horror writer his equal. Once one reads his works, he becomes the gold standard horror author all others are held up to 😉 start by reading The Books Of Blood. And be prepared to be blown away. One note- the cenobites and the box didn’t take you to either heaven or hell. The box didn’t open heaven at all. The premise is that for some people, hell and pain IS THEIR HEAVEN. Seekers of pain for pleasure, for those who can’t get enough on earth and want to go further, have the ultimate pleasure. But then, they take your soul and torture you forever. Until there is no pleasure left, only the pain. Which was more than Frank bargained for. This movie and its premise is original and unexpected, it pushes boundaries (even today) as it touches on a lot of taboo themes and subjects with total abandon. Remember- this is 1987! This movie is decades ahead of its time. That’s a credit to the genius of Clive Barker. He finds the beauty in the horrific. He finds the art in the macabre. There is a kind of elevated poetry to his written works, where he uses elegant language and beautiful prose to describe horrific things. And he always finds the beauty in the monsters and the horror in mankind. He’s brilliant. He touches on themes no one else would touch. And no one in the genre is as original as he is. So, if you take anything from this movie, it should be IF YOU SEE A METAL PUZZLE BOX, LEAVE IT THE HELL ALONE 😂

[@Oi325]

Books of blood was a pretty good movie!

[@LauraCourtneyette]

In 1985 Stephen King said Clive Barker was “the future of horror.” I saw Hellraiser when it came out in theaters. A group of us drove from our little remote Indian reservation to the city to see it - had to stay in a momo. Nobody slept that night!

[@cory6266]

Hellraiser is the real shit, pure uncut 80's horror.

[@MorrisJoshua26]

I subbed after JUST this vid. You guys are great. Entertaining. Real. Thanks for this!

[@commanderkruge]

Little detail on the side: Old daddy here in this movie is a certain Cardassian spy disguised as a human... ;)

[@craigs71]

The actor also played the bad guy in dirty Harry.

[@MrTech226]

Remembered some of these makeup are pre-CGI with some of the best makeup artists in the business at that time worked on this movie. That Puzzled Box can be known as Pandora's Box too. As you seen here, when it opens, it also opens access to Hell.

[@sidnew2739]

Of course ALL OF IT is pre-CGI.

[@maximillianosaben]

After that movie, you fellas could use a laugh. Watch yourselves Young Frankenstein and you'll get that laugh. But for ones a little more balanced into the horror genre, An American Werewolf In London, and Gremlins, are fun watches.

[@rynepaschall5973]

“Jesus Wept” one of the most hardcore lines in horror history

[@mikegonzo1262]

you guys should check out Jacob's Ladder (1990 version, not the crappy remake).

[@DScin13]

This is very well made guys! One of my favorite films, and your reactions had me laughing like a crazy person. Well done!

[@tk421zz]

I'm loving the movie choices and the reactions. Keep it up guys.

[@trapqueen9258]

Hell raiser is one of my favorite classic horror films. I love how it’s not a generic in your face horror. It’s shocking! Thanks for doing this guys! Can’t wait to see what else this channel does in the future !

[@MrJayO1986]

Please react to Brain Dead by Peter Jackson ("Dead Alive" in America)

[@CinemaRules]

MrJayO1986 we’ve been recommended this movie a couple of times now, it’s definitely on our radar 😊

[@pdevoss]

@@CinemaRules I agree with MR. JayO1986, Dead/Alive was advertised as the goriest film ever made when it first came out..

[@blkluv100]

@@CinemaRules FYI Just letting you its more of comedy/horror, with the focus more on the comedy.

[@monsterlair]

Oh god yes, please.

[@mycroft16]

This one is bonkers nuts. Peter Jackson is insane. :D In a good way.

[@JMulvy]

This movie is one of the main reasons why my father hates horror movies. He was never a big fan of them but he would still watch them with us. When he saw this movie his exact words were "Normal people do not make movies like this." I love Clive Barker and Doug Bradley is the only Pinhead for me. Did you know there is a first-person shooter, horror survival video game designed by Clive Barker? It is called "Jericho" and it was one of my favorite horror experiences. Nothing special to write home about just classic Clive Barker horror and suspense.

[@robbiel8677]

Check out The Hitcher movie from the 80s you'll like it.

[@Chyrosran22]

I normally don't really enjoy react videos but this was very entertaining and non-overacted like most are! Cheers!

[@DanJackson1977]

You guys should try the George Romero zombie trilogy. Night of the Living Dead (1968), Dawn of the Dead (1978), and Day of the Dead (1985). They're the birth of the modern zombie genre.. and Night is public domain.. though you might wanna look for a remastered version.. since a lot of copies floating around are pretty banged up.

[@DanJackson1977]

One more thing.. if you ever do "Night of..." stay faaaaaaar away from the 30th anniversary "extended" version.. someone shot new material for it on a camcorder and edited it into the movie.. and it blows. That also goes for any colorized versions.. this is the version you want kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZWZaZ6vg75joKs

[@geejayeff]

Your faces at the end of the movie. I AM CRYING! LOL!

[@kbrad37]

You need to watch Hellraiser 2 as it follows on from this one.

[@lynettepatrice2600]

Great video! I'm subbing now! I'm so tickled at how, after the rat slicing scene, you guys held that stunned look on your face, even when the scene switched,lol! You were stuck like this 👉🏼😲😆

[@derianjones1730]

The husband character is the same actor as the villain in "Dirty Harry".

[@Emulous79]

I'm wondering if Barker watched the scene in that film where Scorpio gets a guy to beat him up. Seems sado-masochistic.

[@iamthatguyfromslipknot1137]

I'll kill all your mothers..lol..or that bit where he is making the kids on the bus sing Row your boat always makes me laugh..

[@greatestscott6599]

_Hellraiser: Where Scorpio Was the Sane One_

[@Catallano1981]

Guys, great Job! It's the best thing watching you both watching the Classics!

[@mikewhite6138]

Really like the channel, if you haven't seen it you should check out The Fly, In the Mouth of Madness, Jacob's Ladder, Angel Heart, The Fog, and The Exorcist (the theatrical version not the extended re-release)

[@adambrown3918]

In 1990, my young mind could not handle Jacob's ladder. It's like a bad trip. Real bad! 🤣

[@etthelost]

Definitely Jacobs ladder and in the mouth of madness.

[@alexstorr3357]

Jacob's Ladder is a classic

[@paulmurphy7626]

The Fly for sure!

[@gmork9279]

Watched it as a kid... Its stillin my head after 20 years... :D

[@Lyno1979]

I think out of all the 80’s horror films. Hellraiser had my favorite score.

[@garryarganis5801]

one of my favorite movies , sadly not many people know about this movie and the ones that do some havent even finish watching it. its a classic for me a true original classic horror movie. Edit: event horizon also one of my top favorite horror movies, also an original also a classic horror movie.

[@WarhavenSC]

0:55 -- Clive Barker's a Brit. Just FYI. Born and raised in Liverpool.

[@Ancaladar100]

You guys have the best facial expressions. This movie, Alien, and Aliens were my favorite bed time movies. I had all three recorded on one VHS tape when I was younger and would fall asleep to it playing in the back ground. Thank you for sharing, stay safe out there.

[@Noggahide]

Highly recommend the Peter Jackson classic, Dead Alive ! after you watch Hellraiser 2 of course, if you thought Hellraiser 1 was crazy.... holy crap....

[@iamthatguyfromslipknot1137]

These guys are English i think and if so then its called Brain dead over here in England,,still though great suggestion as that movie is just over the top gory..lol..

[@PrivateCustard]

"We'll tear your soul apart" - Your faces!!!!

[@Nanology101]

Watch "The Thing" it has amazing practical effects.

[@andiwaslikeyea]

One of my all time favorites! That watch was really funny guys, good one.

[@wozzatech]

19:07 awkward silence!

[@blkluv100]

You guys facial expressions are priceless and your enthusiasm is contagious, it makes me wish your videos were longer. Another stellar reaction......good job👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏. I'm gonna throw in another bid for BASKET CASE 1982.

[@Monsposse]

Ashley Laurence is 54, and ageless.

[@HUEnshiro_do_Norte]

She drank of the same youth potion of Ralph Machio. LOL

[@Tdub0911]

Oh man. I've loved Pinhead since I actually walked in the wrong theater my senior year when this came out. I think we were planning on seeing some comedy and I'm glad we made a mistake. Still my favorite horror movie ever and love watching people see it for the first time.
