Review of Hellraiser: Hellseeker (2002) by Justin A — 30 Jan 2014

What I find hilarious is that it's basically the same exact movie as the one prior to this, albeit, slightly better. Only very slightly though. The running time is shorter and it definitely doesn't drag as bad as part 5 did.

Still, some of the same problems persist. They filmmakers decided to go with another mystery plot and once again it gives us the "they were dead the whole time" ending. Two times in a row. Impressive.

The first couple movies could probably be praised for their creativity, but damn, that has sure gone out the window at this point. I'm also confused about the ending. So he gives Kirsty the box, she opens it and then makes a deal with Pinhead.

Okay. Then she agrees to bring him five souls. Why, then, is she in the car with her husband AFTER he has already tried to kill her? Why do they police let her go when he has a bullet through his head? I'm so confused.

At the very least, the movie looks good. There is a bit more Cenobite/Pinhead action in this movie, even if only very slightly. Still, if you hated part 5, you likely won't enjoy this one. I would suggest to watch this one over part 5, but really, why even bother with either? Hell, why am I still going with these movies?
