    In my opinion, this is the best horror series ever made. It's dark, witty and sure delves into the human mind, psyche and investigates the grotesqueries of human nature. Everybody knows we are born evil and the series show that not only are we born evil, we also become more and more evil when we do not limit ourselves to an ordinary life.HELLRAISER 1 portrays the life of a depraved individual and how it affects his relatives.HELLRAISER 2 is about a mundane brain surgeon who believes death is the 4th dimension and spares no expense to see what there is beyond this so-called real world.HELLRAISER 3 is about a demon who is free to roam the earth and wreak havoc.HELLRAISER 4 is about the eternal battle between good VS evil that plagues a cursed family through generations because they made the box that opens the gates of hell.From pts. 1 through 4 there's gore galore,graphic violence and plenty of taboo subjects, such as bondage - S&M.HELLRAISER 5 is about a corrupt police officer who seeks the ENGINEER - a faceless serial killer from HELL.HELLRAISER 6 is about troubled Kristy (the cute girl from HELLRAISER 1)and her braindamaged husband who are involved in a riddle.HELLRAISER 7 (this one) is about a sect who worships the DEVIL (aka LEVIATHAN - the LORD OF THE LABYRINTH) and a journalist who investigates mysterious and bizarre incidents.HELLRAISER 8 is about the INTERNET,which is used by the devil to seduce and kill whoever visits HELLWORLD - the website.From pts.5 through 8 , gore is minimal,so is graphic violence.The atmosphere ,though, is still dark, and all HELLRAISER elements are present here - HUMAN BEINGS ARE ABLE TO DO ANYTHING TO PLEASE THEMSELVES.Parts 1, 5,6,7 & 8 are like the HELLRAISER graphic novels published a decade ago. The CENOBITES are not the stars of the show - they just happen to be there and enrich the stories.There are different CENOBITES for different occasions.Parts 2, 3 & 4 are more centered (but not that much - except part 3)on PINHEAD,and once again NEW DIFFERENT CENOBITES turn up,because like one of the HELLRAISER comic books stated,different CENOBITES are required for different types of jobs.All CENOBITES are bizarre metal, leather & flesh reconfigurations.I like other horror series out there, but none is as visually rich,enigmatic and captivating as HELLRAISER - it's like a puzzle that offers different answers .PINHEAD is forever, so is this series, regardless of what some wannabe critics and pseudo intellectuals or frustrated script writers & lousy movie directors say. I already bought from AMAZON parts 7 & 8 and I am drooling for more ... HELLRAISER !!!!!!

    I thought this movie was awesome for a straight to DVD movie. Deader is somewhat low budget but is filmed in europe, so it looks much more authentic and a bit gothic. Also this movie has somewhat of an artsy David Lynch vibe to it, and I really appreciated that.

    The script is very good and engaging. The acting is mostly good. The plot is very interesting. The blood, special effects, and gore scenes are mostly excellent.

    This movie is about a journalist who investigates into a group called the deaders, run by an ancestor of the box maker, who made an appearance in the 4th Hellraiser movie. As you watch the movie you will find out how pinhead and the cenobites are related to the deaders.

    There is actually a bit of full frontal nudity and sexual scenes in this movie. So it is not for young teens.

    Is this movie better than Hellworld? Yes! It is much better. In fact this ranks as almost as good as the first two hellraisers.

    Very much suggested!

    This movie is a great horror!/Suspense!

    All these people complaining about this are lame just looking for an excuse to complain!

    First of all,All you so called Hellraiser fans,Pin head only appears in the first Hellraiser movie for about 5 minutes total also!So why are you complaining?

    This Has an excellent plot to it,The production is nice,The acting is good,And even if this wasn't a hellraiser movie it is still a great story.

    Especially for a true horror fan!!!

    It's pretty apparent that this is another "Hellraiser" film that is based on a spec script that was altered to fit the "Hellraiser" brand. With that said, this one feels pretty close to an organic "Hellraiser" movie, and better yet, this is the first "Hellraiser" film since "Bloodlines" where Pinhead's appearance and actions actually make sense.

    An investigative reporter, Amy Klein, is sent to Romania to follow up on a video her editor received showing what looks like a ritualistic suicide/murder and the victim's rebirth. There is a strange cult in Bucharest led by a man named Winter that calls themselves the "Deaders". When Amy arrives at the apartment where the video tape was sent from, she finds a young woman's corpse handing in the bathroom. Beside the girl's body is another videotape and in the girl's hand she's holding the infamous puzzle box. Taking the tape and the puzzle box, Amy returns to her hotel room where she watches the tape of the girls pleading for someone to stop the Deaders and Winter, and then Amy opens the puzzle box, opening her up to Pinhead's world.

    Where the last two films focused on the personal Hell of the main characters, "Deader" gets back to the story of an innocent being pulled into Pinhead's world. Kari Wuhrer is always fun to watch, and does a great job as Amy, her performance carries the film. Doug Bradley's Pinhead is given a bit more to do this time instead of simply being wedged into the film like the previous couple of installments, but he's still not a central characters. Where the movie falls apart is Paul Rhys as "Winter LeMarchand". Winter's motivations, and his relationships with the other characters remains vague. We are never sure why he is doing what he does, or how he is able to do what he does? Rhys doesn't have any charisma, and lacks the menace needed to carry the role.

    With that said, this is one of the better sequels.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Extra non released Hellraiser Movie hidden on the DVD.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 24, 2006
    If you own or wish to own this DVD and wish to know what to expect , i believe the other Reviews given are correct ,, BUT non of these reviews give the die hard hellraiser fans what we want,, On this DVD is a hidden Easter Egg Short Movie Called "no more Souls" made by Gary J. Tunnicliffe who was the special makeup effects fella behind most of the later hellraiser movies..
    This Short Movie has the cenobites Pinhead,Chatterer and Bound in the Cast.and i as a Lover of Hellraiser loved it (keep in mind Gary himself plays an aging Pinhead in the storyline)
    To access the Easter Egg simply go to "special Features , then highlight play movie and press DOWN and then Press Right , then the Lament Configuration will turn Red and the movie will Start..
    Hey presto (ooh yeh this only works on the Region 1 Copy of this movie)
