Viewing Notes
The second movie in a Clive Barker triple feature for Terror in the Aisles 11. I’ve seen portions of Hellraiser, but not the whole movie, so it was cool to see it for the first time in 35mm in a historic theater full of horror fans. This is thought to be the last 35mm print of this movie in North America as well, so quite a rare treat.
Again, I’m not a big Clive Barker fan, but I did enjoy Hellraiser. Not sure I’d get a lot out of many of the sequels, but this one is nasty and fun.
