Review of Hellbound: Hellraiser II (1988) by Steven1981 — 21 Mar 2020
Hellbound: Hellraiser II continues on from the first Hellraiser movie. We see Kirsty (Ashley Laurence) who's a traumatised victim from the original movie in a psychiatric hospital run by the weird Dr. Channard (Kenneth Cranham) and we also see William Hope from Aliens (1986).
.. Doctor Channard resurrects Julia's (Clare Higgins) dead body from a bloody mattress after somebody slashes themselves on it. Julia (Higgins) is Kirsty's stepmother and we get some girl who never speaks if hardly named Tiffany who solves puzzles and we get taken into the world of the cenobites and Doctor Channard becomes a badguy killing the original cenobites and Pinhead (Doug Bradley) at the end.
... A truly horrible, unnecessary sequel with horrible acting and an ugly storyline and weak performances. Even the gore doesn't save how bad this film is and how stupid it is and I hated Hellraiser II apart from when Kyle (William Hope) sneaks into Doctor Channard's apartment and see's puzzle boxes everywhere and says "Weird, fkg weird! Jesus Christ, Jeeesus Christ!!!" and the way he says it makes me laugh because that was great acting, comedy gold and amusing.
.. Besides that scene this horror sequel sucks.
