I am commenting completely independent of this movie, without any affiliation whatsoever. I am also a die hard horror movie junkie. Okay... What the hell (no pun intended) is going on with the reviews of this movie? Straight up haters and horror snobs. There is so much horror CRAP that is spewed forth at the rate that cockroaches breed that I cherish a good horror movie these days. They are like diamonds in the rough and hard to find. Was this a great movie? No, it wasn't. But a 2 on IMDb it absolutely is not. I believe horror movies should be judged by their own standards. An absolute score might be a 3 or a 4, but a relative horror score (a score horror fans should pay attention to) would be closer to a 6. I watched this movie in its entirety and was entertained. This is what I consider to be a diamond in the rough - when you're scrolling through Netflix and you see 'sand Sharks' and 'sharknado' and various other turds, and you find yourself wanting to punch your own face, click on 'revelations' and enjoy a decent horror flick. I would say that the special effects were actually far better than the budget would otherwise suggest (here on IMDb estimated at 350k). Summary - if you're a horror snob from Harvard you will rate this movie a 1 or 2. If you are a normal horror loving fan then you will probably be entertained, but please leave your expectations at the door because it's not winning any awards. This is the one on Netflix you should at least try. Sincerely, A dude that hates scrolling through countless crappy horror movies and just wants to watch one that is entertaining (but you can call me Luke for short)

This movie is worse than. HELLWORLD. PINHEAD IS LAUGHABLE Female Chatter is a disgrace. If you are a Hellraiser fan i suggest you watch it because it makes absolutely no sense. If you escape the box why would you want to go back? Why does he think they will make a deal with him? Nothing makes any sense in this even the ending. I would watch Hellworld 24/7 before i ever think about watching this thing again. BTW Hellworld use to be the worst one of the series until this one came out. Pinhead ha ha dude i'd fart on you if i ever saw you. Pinhead looks like hes taking a dump while talking. WHY is he so FAT?????????? Why do all the cenobites Look so young? why Pinhead constructing a cenobites thats the engineers job. Why did the dad kill that one kid when they said they were going to torture him forever????? Why did pinhead take the wife?? The husband cheated on her so he really doesn't care... The one person he did care about he doesn't take even thou she really wants to stay. MAN nothing in the movie is goo. I've seen youtube videos that were better.Why didn't you just use one of their scripts? We deserve answers i own all the movies and nothing was ever as bad as this.

I'm only giving this movie a 1 because you can't give it a zero. This is the worst sequel to a horror movie I've ever seen, and I have watched a LOT of garbage horror. I actually just read another review on this movie, and it reminded me how badly I was disappointed by it so I came on here, hoping that other people won't waste their time, and also hoping if no one actually goes out to rent this than the idiots who produced will regret their decision to make it. They were apparently going to lose their rights to the movie so they threw together a piece of crap with $300,000 and in 11 days. The acting is horrible-they took the blood going into the floor from the first movie and used that to make it kind of resemble a hellraiser movie, but it happens in some room where the main character is screwing a hooker and can hear the dead guy in the floor in his head saying "kill her, kill her." he does, with the puzzlebox (why the puzzlebox? i don't get it) then when the dead guy rises (from under the mattress, i guess they saved some $ on special effects that way) he narrates what's happening "the blood is bringing me back! bring more!" the characters narrate what's happening around them almost the entire movies. and when one of the men's faces gets cut off, his friend brings him inside and asks for towels. for his missing face. Oh, and the guy playing pinhead is no Doug Bradley. he does a terrible job. maybe it's not his fault, but if the guy who played pinhead in EVERY movie, even the direct to video silly ones, won't act in this one, that should tell you something. worst movie ever. no plot, just a bunch of talking and some face blood. don't waste your time.

The best friends Steven Craven (Nick Eversman) and Nico Bradley (Jay Gillespie) travel to Mexico to have fun. They meet a vagrant (Daniel Buran) in a bar that gives a puzzle box to Nico. When he opens the device, he finds that it is a key to hell. Nico brings Pinhead (Stephan Smith Collins) that inflicts pain to him and Steven and the youngsters vanish. Later, in Los Angeles, Dr. Ross Craven (Steven Brand), his wife Sarah (Devon Sorvari) and their daughter Emma (Tracey Fairaway) receive Peter (Sebastien Roberts) and Kate Bradley(Sanny Van Heteren) to have dinner. Both families miss Steven and Nico and they hired a private detective to seek them out, but he only finds Nico's backpack. When Emma snoops around the backpack, she finds the puzzle box and out of the blue, Steven returns covered of blood. But soon they discover that it is not Steven's soul that is inside his body. "Hellraiser: Revelations" is a very bad sequel, actually the ninth movie of this franchise. It shows the terrible fate of the classic Clive Baker's horror story "Hellraiser" (1987) and its great sequel "Hellbound: Hellraiser II" (1988). "Hellraiser: Revelations" has a messy screenplay that does not show anything new. Indeed, Doug Bradley has probably given up of performing Pinhead and Stephan Smith Collins is very weak in this role. The worst thing is that the conclusion gives the sensation that the author intends to make another sequel that should be released straight to garbage instead of to video. My vote is three. Title (Brazil): "Hellraiser: Revelações" ("Hellraiser: Revelations")

In this ninth installment of the Hellraiser franchise, two friends discover a puzzle box in Mexico, which opens a gateway to Hell. I hardly even want to write a review about this crock of rubbish, because others already have and have done a better job. Dread Central wrote, "Not only does this entry make all the other sequels seem great in comparison, you could easily confuse this for some Hellraiser mockbuster from the folks at The Asylum." This is spot-on, as they have stolen everything good from the first two films -- Pinhead, the mattress rebirth, the homeless man -- and made them into pale comparisons. No one has been harsher than Scott Weinberg, who called the film a "contractually-mandated piece of intentional garbage that exists for no other reason than pure, simple greed... This is amateur hour stuff all the way, and it'd be almost endearingly, stupidly enjoyable if this witless cinematic refuse wasn't dancing on the grave of a true classic of the genre." Ouch! But seriously, what is with the chubby Pinhead who has somehow lost his British accent? The only way this even makes sense is by assuming it just happens to be another demon that imitates the look.

After reading other reviews I went into this expecting an absolutely abysmal film. While its certainly not on par with the early Hellraiser movies I feel it is far better than any of the more recent efforts, as they do for the most part attempt to stay close the roots of the original films. Obviously the first thing you will notice is the lack of Doug Bradley as Pinhead. I know he has a chubbier face and deep down we all hate to see someone else as Pinhead but heres some advice for if you watch it... You will get more out of this movie if you stop yourself from comparing the new actor to Doug Bradley. As another review noted, I think the new Pinhead did a great job considering what he had to work with and the script he was given. I was glad this wasn't another run of the mill detective story with Pinhead thrown in at the last minute like some of the previous ones have been (Inferno, Hellseeker.) Its not going to be your new favorite Hellraiser but if you give it a chance you might be surprised.

'HELLRAISER: REVELATIONS': Two and a Half Stars (Out of Five) This ninth chapter in the popular horror franchise was made on a budget of just $300,000, filmed in just three weeks and rushed into and out of production in order to save the studio, The Weinstein Company, from losing it's rights to the material. Due to the hastiness of the production long time star Doug Bradley decided not to return as 'Pinhead' and the resulting film is undoubtedly the weakest and most disappointing of the series. It's still interesting to a certain extent though, like all chapters in the mythology, and offers at least something to satisfy fans' bizarre fascination. It was directed by Victor Garcia and written by Gary J. Tunnicliffe. Actor Stephan Smith Collins steps into the notorious role of 'Pinhead'. The film is the first based on an original script since the fourth installment and borrows greatly from Clive Barker's novella 'The Hellbound Heart'. It tells the story of two young men, Steven Craven (Nick Eversman) and Nico Bradley (Jay Gillespie), who run away from home to Mexico to party for several days until one accidentally kills a prostitute. While deciding what to do about the mess they've gotten themselves into a vagrant (Daniel Buran) approaches them in a bar and tells them he knows about their predicament. He gives them the infamous puzzle box which they later open and then go missing. The story flashes back and forth in time to the boys' families as they attempt to piece together what happened to the missing youths. They too open the puzzle box and must face Pinhead and his cenobites as well. The acting, writing and directing are all weak but because of the subject matter the film is still interesting and somewhat horrifying. It would be pretty hard to really mess up Barker's original concept; putting 'Pinhead' and the cenobites into anything is always going to make for a compelling story. There has been a lot of press about the fact that the film is advertised as 'from the mind of Clive Barker' and Barker says this is untrue, (pretty profanely). So he obviously doesn't think too much of the film and with good reason. It was rushed through production and doesn't do true justice to his original vision at all. Like with pizza though, even a bad 'Pinhead' film is good horror. If you're a fan of the series you could still at least be somewhat amused (I was).

This is my first review so please bear with me. I am a recent fan of the Hellraiser series and Hellraiser 3: Hell on Earth is my personal favorite. I purchased this movie, Hellraiser: Revelations, yesterday and I got to say; I'm not certain why everybody is bashing this one. This is NOT the worst Hellraiser sequel ("Hellworld" still retains that title). Victor Garcia has booted Rick Bota out of the director's chair and gave us a flick that, fortunately, is much closer to the first two movies (and probably with less than half the money) than "Hellworld". The number one criticism seems to be Doug Bradley's absence. I do agree on this point. Mr. Bradley turned down this role because he knew he couldn't keep up with the two-week schedule. It's true, his presence would have improved the film immensely. Stephan Smith Collins and Fred Tatasciore do a decent job but, there is no substitute for Bradley. I find it interesting though, that they had to dub in another voice for Pinhead. Does Stephan Collins' voice really sound that bad? Never the less, "Revelations" is a great sequel is it's own right. I like this one a lot more than the previous sequel. Clive Barker has distanced himself from this one despite the fact it's "Hellworld" not "Revelations" he should be concerned about. If you are watching the series in order; after "Deader" you might want to skip "Hellworld" and go straight to "Revelations". This is a much better movie. Doug Bradley may be sorely missed but, Rick Bota certainly isn't. I give this review 7 out of 10. One negative star for Doug Bradley's absence and two negative stars for Collins and Tatasciore giving us a not-as-effective Pinhead.

Every review of this movie has ripped it to shreds. Some reviews were fair, however. I'm one of these people who looks deeper into what he sees before him rather than the surface. While it is true that this film is by no means a masterpiece, it certainly isn't the biggest cinematic monstrosity of all time ("Children of the Living Dead" owns that title). First off: Doug Bradley's absence. I'm a huge Doug Bradley/Pinhead fan, and there will never be anyone to play Pinhead better, but you have to look at what the new guy was up against. Very short shooting schedule and immediate fan ridicule pretty much doomed this poor guy. Overall, I felt he did a decent job with what he was given. Second: special effects. Come on people, it's a direct-to-DVD movie. Are we looking for 'Star Wars' visuals here? Honestly, I felt the effects here were a bit better than they should have been. Seriously, if you're a fan of this series, leave high expectations at the door and just give it an honest chance. You never know, you might end up liking it.
