My impression of this movie was that it was a spin on the Harry Angel story in Angel Heart, but I haven't seen Jacob's Ladder in years. This is a great channel for creative writers, because the story elements are always traced so very well, that it makes a writer think more about their own stories, whether or not it's making sense. Many thanks for that!

As a stand-alone extended type of Twilight Zone episode with Hellraiser elements, I found this surprisingly enjoyable, and well acted for the most part.

I actually did like that one...unlike that, what is going to come...yikes. True it differed a lot from previous Hellraiser-Movies, yet it had a couple of great visuals kinda sorta trying to recreate the camera angles from previous movies, the symbolism was quite nice and it was NOT "Revelations"...that's a plus, I guess. Still: Great Review, guys.

Imo this is the best hellraiser movie out of this bunch that came after the first two, even if it rips out Jacobs ladder, the idea of hell being a psychological horror rather than physical torment is very interesting to me because It's more relatable, maybe if I get like cancer or kidnapped and tortured I might change my mind but I hope not.

"It only works because he have seen it in Jacob's ladder" - no, actually. The film worked for me and I have never seen Jacob's ladder. In order to enjoy that film one has to accept that these Hellraiser films are just stand-alone stories with Hellraiser just being more or less attached to it. But then again, even Hellraiser 2 was already a departure from the original concept.

I enjoyed this one like I enjoyed Oblivion with Cruise. Sometimes a movie is very derivative but it just doesn't steal from a single source, it makes a sort of reference salad that becomes an enjoyable homage and something with its own identity. I would say that this Hell is no Labyrinth anymore, and the Cenobites became Devils, which is admittedly a bad.

Yes definitely a different take on the series. The psychological bit was an interesting idea even if it did borrow elements from other films. Also Walter Werzowa's musical score is nothing compared to Christopher Young's BUT it did have a number of creepy tunes as well. Nice review

Craig Sheffer starred in another movie based on a Clive Barker novel, Nightbreed. I read the novel entitled Cabal which was good. The movie Nightbreed was trash. Clive Barker has no luck with his stories being adapted for the screen. Barker was smart to get the studio to pay him off and tap out. The movies at this point are unrecognizable from Clive Barker’s original vision. 😂😂😂
