Hellraiser
HorrorThriller94 min
After a mysterious puzzle box opens a doorway to the Cenobites, a family’s new house becomes the center of a grotesque resurrection. Clare Higgins’s Julia discovers that Frank, the lover she thought dead, has returned as something barely human and desperate for blood to rebuild himself. As she hides him in the attic, Kirsty (Ashley Laurence) gets pulled toward the box and the beings it summons, led by Doug Bradley’s impassive, nail-studded figure. Written and directed by Clive Barker, the film keeps its horror close to the body, mixing occult ritual, sexual obsession, and splintered domestic life.
