Review of Hellraiser (1987) by Kostas K — 17 Nov 2009
Great classic horror story that concerns nothing but torture. I love how over the top Uncle Frank was and just how completely nuts the story was. I think the idea of a torture box was great and the fact that it unleashed a pack of Cenobites.
The visual effects were great, some of the best i've seen. Especially when it came to the rebirth of Uncle Frank. Clive Barker is the king of torture and he defitiely proved it here, even now it's still pretty abitious in terms of content.
Its an amazing horror tale too, there's method to the madness. It shows the descent into evil and what certain people will do for ultimate power.
