Review of Hellraiser (2022) by Jluis_001 — 07 Oct 2022
To say it's better than most of the other sequels after the third installment doesn't really mean much. The truth is that it means nothing. And anyone who says otherwise is fooling themselves.
The problem with this version of Hellraiser is the same problem that plagued all the other awful sequels. There is nothing left to tell with this kind of characters and plot.
Yes, maybe horror fans will gloat over the gore and violence that has always been part of these stories, but there is nothing to be gained watching it.
The existence of this film adds nothing to the franchise regardless of what it does better, for the very reason that it carries that stench of mediocrity.
It's not an option that I would rule out if you're interested, both for the franchise and the genre, but I reiterate that this film has nothing new to contribute.
