He’s definitely one of them. That movie has a bunch. My favorite Friday The 13th.
That’s very interesting. Part V is generally viewed as one of the worst. What makes it your favorite? Reggie is an awesome character though for sure

I mean it doesn't really have that reputation anymore. A lot of people have come around to it as the most pure exploitation entry of the franchise. Even if the killer isn't technically Jason, it does everything the series is known for at maybe its most indulgent. I wrote a longer review for why I connect with it so much.

no offense but this comment kinda written like a chatgpt response lol
assuming you are a real person tho, the fifth film is elevated by the interesting characters. its not my favorite but theirs definitely a lot worse movies in the franchise.

4 is my favorite after 5.
Everyone really loves 6 but I’ve come down on it over the years
part vi is really good but yeah, I dont think it touches some of the earlier films. still though: you got the hilarious RV scene, the car chase, and that awesome climax with the lake on fire.
franchise is just too good

It’s still good for sure, but a little too big, cleaned up, and self aware for what I think these should be. Some classic moments in there tho. It’s a consistently fun franchise.
literally just a s*** version of Inferno. one of the worst horror movie scripts ever? feel like I just wasted my f***in time. also their's like a Memento thing going on with the main character's memory that makes no sense. feel bad for Dean Winters tho, you can tell he was the only one trying. anyway suck my d***.
pretty well the first and only horror film the Soviet Union allowed until glasnost was an insane masterpiece tbh
@Snowboy have you seen?

great film, great job lampooning the drunken nature of the orthodox clerics. the whole "first horror film in the ussr" thing seems to be a marketing gimmick by the bluray distributor tho, their were horror films made prior to this as well as afterward. The Bear's Wedding was released in 1925. also one of the more infamous lost films of the silent era was a version of Dracula filmed in the RSFSR in 1920 (which would make it the first filmed adaptation of the novel).

yeah heard about the Bears Wedding, but that its more of a cautionary tale that than real horror. sad I missed it when I was focusing on 1925.
ive screened Viy for a room full of people on shrooms several times and they always absolutely lose their s*** lol its truly a crazy movie and yeah I was picking up on the shots fired at the church too.

It’s only going to get worse I’m afraid
Do you beautiful people have letterboxd? I mostly log horror mystery & thriller.
alright see this was more like it dawg, this was like a real Hellraiser movie. chainsmoking newspaper lady rides a romanian bdsm s***train and finds a cult of pinhead worshippers. we are so back. shout out to stan winston for this one. awful movie title I will admit tho.

I’d honestly give 2 a 9 as well. One of my favorite horror sequels
filmmakers took a wild left turn with this one and gave us a New Nightmare-esque meta slasher complete with Pinhead dropping one-liners & tormenting a bunch of h**** teens at a Hellraiser themed rave. s*** is nutty. Lance Henriksen in full-on villain mode dominates. I kinda liked it, even if the film doesnt fully live up to the premise.
when these movies suck they truly suck hard. this is apperently the first of dimension's "ashcan" films in the franchise, shown in one theater and dumped onto bluray to keep the rights from reverting back to Clive Barker. the first 10 minutes bait you into thinking this is going to be "the found footage Hellraiser movie". the filmmakers, sensing that this could be interesting, quickly abandon the idea for what can only be considered a crude ripoff of the original film. is it more entertaining than Hellseeker? yeah probably. but it is also feels incredibly cynical and cheap, Bradley's replacement can't act for s*** and the whole production has this Asylum-esque quality that I hate.
dont know if I'll even watch the next one so I'll just give my rating for the reboot & call it a day for now. overall though, a top tier horror franchise, glad I stuck it out this long.
my ratings for all the movies so far:
Hellraiser | 9/10
Hellbound: Hellraiser II | 8/10
Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth | 8/10
Hellraiser IV: Bloodline | 5/10
Hellraiser: Inferno | 7/10
Hellraiser VI: Hellseeker | 1/10
Hellraiser VII: Deader | 7/10
Hellraiser VIII: Hellworld | 6/10
Hellraiser: Revelations | 1/10
Hellraiser (2022) | 6/10
now thats a damn movie poster. mad decent late 80s slasher too, seems to not get much shine since it ain't been given the vanity label bluray treatment yet.
this was highkey everything I've ever wanted in a movie. just go in blind and enjoy. weird how this is so slept on.
9/10
