Hellraiser

Sexual deviant Frank inadvertently opens a portal to hell when he tinkers with a box he bought while abroad. The act unleashes gruesome beings called Cenobites, who tear Frank’s body apart. When Frank’s brother and his wife, Julia, move into Frank’s old house, they accidentally bring what is left of Frank back to life. Frank then convinces Julia, his one-time lover, to lure men back to the house so he can use their blood to reconstruct himself.

1987, 93 minutes, USA, Rated R, Directed by Clive Barker

  • In partnership with Gods & Monsters
  • "Horror is at its best when it's relentless. Clive Barker knows this, and his debut feature as director is so gleefully vicious, so relentlessly grim that it's going to be very hard for fans of the genre not to like it."

    - William Thomas, EMPIRE MAGAZINE
  • "Hellraiser [is] one of the most gruesome, visually horrific fantasy films you will ever see. Written and directed by Clive Barker, the film is a relentless, unflinching foray into a netherworld of monsters, murder and the supernatural."

    - Roger Hurlburt, SOUTH FLORIDA SUN SENTINEL
  • "Utterly bizarre and entirely ridiculous - and yet effective, an imaginative guignol festival, like the goriest of soap operas, in which one wrong move opens a portal to hell."

    - Peter Bradshaw, GUARDIAN
  • "With Hellraiser, Clive Barker created one of the most genuinely disturbing movies of the last 20 years."

    - Bob McCabe, EMPIRE MAGAZINE
