Justin has been with Digital Spy since 2010, and in that time, has covered countless major news events for DS from the US.In 1987, Liverpudlian author turned film maker Barker unleashed Hellraiser on a very unsuspecting public, a public weaned at that time on generic slasher films populated with wise-cracking antagonists who did little but satisfy the repressed bloodlust of its mostly teenage audience. It became a hugely popular horror franchise, securing Pinhead and the Cenobites a place in the Horror Hall of Fame.
Introducing the world to the iconic Pinhead, Hellraiser became an instant genre classic upon release and remains one of the most frighteningly original visions in horror.Movie: The gates of Hell are thrown open by this 4K boxset dedicated to Clive Barker's Hellraiser mythos.
It looks much more film-like, is even and banishes the slightly splotchy rendering it had on the previous 1080p releases…and has the knock-on effect of rendering fine detail with that extra little bit of clarity. Hellraiser has always been famed for its gruesome and grotesque special effects and 3 is no exception. The movie adds extra lore to the series making reference to the Channard Institute and Kirsty Cotton (Ashley Laurence). Stephen King was once famously quoted as saying, “I have seen the future of horror… his name is Clive Barker.
The discs are also loaded with special features, not to mention the wildly impressive box decked out with new artwork that will look good on the ol’ media shelf. With enhanced colour grading and meticulous attention to detail, the movie now reveals its true dark and gritty nature as intended by the director.
