Such sights to show you: All 11 ‘Hellraiser’ films, ranked
Movie list: This odd horror franchise sometimes goes to the depths of Hell and sometimes only features a Pinhead pop-in.
‘Hellraiser’ still has plenty of (Ceno)bite in 11th entry
Movie review: The Clive Barker saga (which began with the 1987 classic) gets a serious and slick fresh take after a slew of cheap sequels.
‘Candyman’ saga spoils with ‘Day of the Dead’ (1999)
Summoning ‘Candyman’ (Movie review): Again, Candyman torments someone into joining him in the afterlife. It was better the previous two times.
‘Candyman: Farewell to the Flesh’ (1995) covers old ground
Summoning ‘Candyman’ (Movie review): The second “Candyman” is a remake as much as a sequel. But it maintains a decent level of technical quality.
‘Candyman’ (1992) makes beautiful art out of hopelessness
Summoning ‘Candyman’ (Movie review): Like “Hellraiser,” this Clive Barker-produced urban-horror project is driven by its artistry. Here, the score by Philip Glass stands out.
‘Hellbound: Hellraiser II’ (1988) another gore-effects feast
Frightening Friday (Movie review): It’s nice to have Ashley Laurence back, but the story loses tension in this grander “Hellraiser” sequel.
Barker’s ‘Hellraiser’ (1987) is artistic gore-horror
Frightening Friday (Movie review): While I wouldn’t categorize myself as a gore-hound after watching “Hellraiser,” I do admire Barker’s film as art.
