Clive Barker’s Hellraiser
Description
We have such sights to show you! Join PJ and Derek as they open the puzzle box and step into a world where desire and suffering are hopelessly intertwined in Clive Barker’s directorial debut Hellraiser (1987). In this episode the guys explore the film’s striking practical effects, its unapologetically dark themes, and the unforgettable presence of Pinhead as both villain and philosopher, which redefined 1980s horror, stepping away from slashers to deliver something far more psychological, sensual, and grotesque. 📺
