HELLRAISER (Remake)
#21
Add me to the list that thinks this shouldn't be remade. I enjoyed the Hellraiser series, & I'm only tolerating it because Clive Barker will actually be involved in his own remake.

count me in...count me in...well the good critique I found in the hell raiser film (1987) is that Ashley Laurence looks like she's been through hell at the end of the movie. Which she has but I mean she acts the part. The acting is *not* a strong factor of these movies, and so if you get a competent actress it will make it worth it, and Ashley does a good job as Kirsty in that regard. The movie's fantastical nature was toned down here due to budget(but they more than make up for it in Hellraiser 2) so they focus on makeup. The makeup effects are astounding. We have a skinless man, and of course the cenobites which are in full costume and have various effects. Pinhead, whose name is self explanatory. The female one with her throat ripped open and stretched out. Butterball, the fat one with his eyes sewn shut. And the Chatterer...eyes are also shut and whose mouth is stretched so far open that whenever he tries to talk he just..well..chatters. I can't even imagine the hard work that went into it and so I applaud them. The story too I liked. Not necessarily the script but the story is very original and bizarre. Doug Bradley is good as Pinhead for the first time here, not phoning it in like he would be in later sequels and not hamming it up like he would before that. "We'll tear your soul apart" is still a classic line.

I think on a podcast, Adam Green (Dir. Hatchet) alluded that he was approached to direct this movie without Pinhead.

In the End of December 2009 began the casting of the sequel to Hatchet and stars Kane Hodder and Alexis Peters. The screening begins in late January to begin February 2010. Green narrated the film on the premiere of his last project Frozen

I enjoy his style. There's a limited release of Frozen around here, I was hoping to see it this weekend.
