Hellraiser (1987)

Hellraiser (1987)

A woman discovers the newly resurrected, partially formed, body of her brother-in-law. She starts killing for him to revitalize his body so he can escape the demonic beings that are pursuing him after he escaped their sadistic underworld.

The special effects didn't age so well, but everything else is just perfect. The characters, the scenery, the way the lights play on the blinds, the flesh and desire and desperation... the boyfriend's maybe a bit minor a role though. You'd have expected him to be more of a man with the malice.

Some things feel like they could've been done better when you see this now, but for the time... what a movie.

Feels a bit like Brain Dead but all out horror more so than carnage.

If you want a real thriller with mystique, monsters and old and fleshy props: give this a shot.

 rated 4.5/5: almost awesome

    Should've probably been the other way around...
