When I first found out this movie had a space theme to it I cringed and refused to watch the movie. I hated Hellraiser 3 and vowed I would not torture myself by watching anymore of the series. I finally gave in and watched and turns out this movie is much better then anticipated. You find out about the origin of the box and I found that aspect of the movie to be really good. A sexy Demon by the name of Angilique is the character that is affecting the bloodline until Pinhead enters the picture. When Angelique tries to showdown with Pinhead she looses and is turned into a cenobite. You also get two new cenobites a dog like cenobite and fused pair of security guards (this effect is amazing!!!). Part of the appeal for me with the Hellraiser series is Pinhead and you don't get to see much of him in this film. Hellraiser and Hellraiser 2: Hellbound will always be the best in the series. The most you can hope for watching further installments of the Hellraiser series are peeks of Pinhead, some newer cenobites and the gore. This movie is better than Hellraiser 3, but not better then Hellraiser or Hellbound. In my opinion Bloodline is a worth a rental, but should not be considered a title you add to your home collection.
