 Hello everybody, E here. Welcome back to 31 Days of Halloween. I didn't get as much reading as I wanted to get done this month, so here for the last week we are going to be doing movie week. So some of my favorite recent new horror movies. I will not be talking about any of the Halloween's, but today we're going to be talking about Hellraiser. And if you're worried about book reviews, any more book reviews, I have one more coming for the final day of the month on Halloween. I will be reviewing Adam Cesar's Clown in the cornfield too. I'm currently reading that. I'm almost done and I wish there was more book reviews to give you. I just didn't have time. So anyways, I watched the new Hellraiser. It is available, I believe on Hulu. It is, here's for the too long didn't watch the TLDW here. I like the first Hellraiser. I like the second Hellraiser. I like pretty much all of the Hellraiser's. And I tell people that all the time and they're like, oh, what about the, now I have to do, I have to add this. I love all the Bradley Hellraiser's judgment and revelations. I think I didn't like either one of those, but I liked all the other ones with Bradley well enough. This one is my favorite Hellraiser since part two. If I had to do a listicle, it would probably be my third favorite right after one and two. My previously in the third spot, it was Hellraiser Bloodlines because I do love a bit of wackiness in space. I love Leprechaun in space, Critters in space, Jason X, Jason 10, whatever Jason in space. I love that whole subgenre and the cheesier the better. Not that Bloodlines was uber cheesy, but it had some really cheesy moments. You can't go to space without throwing some cheese in there. That's how I feel. I'm also a big fan of horror movies that don't take themselves too seriously. It either has to be super dark and serious for me, or it has to be cheesy to the point of comedy. Now, going back to talking about Hellraiser, this new one, I believe the person who plays Pinhead is Jamie Moulton. I probably should have researched that, did a fantastic job. I have no complaints about their performance. I enjoyed it. I loved it. In fact, I don't really have too many complaints. I don't have any complaints. Now, the more that I think about it, I don't really have any complaints. I think all of the staples of the series are there. Did they improve anything? No. Did they make anything worse? No. I like the new puzzle box. I like the new configurations. I liked all of that stuff. I love the cold open. Having that scene right there, right off the bat, was really, it pleased me as a horror fan. The way they kind of kept it hidden, the way Pinhead and the Cinnabites were not in it a whole hell of a lot, the clicker and the one with the hands. Those two really bothered me. I've never been scared or frightened by any of the Cinnabite designs. Cinnabite. Anyways, they've never upset me. But those two, the clicker, the one with the chattery teeth and the black lady, those two were absolutely horrifying. I love their designs. I do want to talk about one thing and that is people are saying the Cinnabites look plastic, they look fake, so on and so forth. I don't know. I enjoyed it. I liked the way they looked. I saw Bracken McLeod said it's the tamest of all the Hellraiser movies. Or it's the, I don't know, the most clinical or whatever. I don't want to misquote them, but that's paraphrasing anyways. And I don't know. I really, really liked this one. I think it was brutal. I think it was very well done. There was one thing that Duncan Ralston said that I kind of agree, that I actually not kind of, I completely agree with, was the characters, the victims were more interesting than any of the Cinnabites. So I don't know what, I'm having a problem saying Cinnabite. Is that right? Now my brain, you know when you say a word so many times, it doesn't, it doesn't sound right anymore. Is now I'm thinking of like Cinnabites, like Cinnamon Bites. What, what, what restaurant had that? Anyways, maybe I'm just hungry. But that's my review of Hellraiser. I don't know. I hope you liked it. I really enjoyed it. Like I said, top three for me out of the entire franchise, but I have very weird tastes. So if you have watched Hellraiser yourself, the new one, let me know down there in the doobly-doo where it stacks up, where it ranks for you in the franchise. But until next time, I have an E, you have an U. This has been another episode of 31 Days of Hala Wien. I'll talk to you guys later. Bye-bye.
