Title: Not for everyone
Review: Hellraiser Inferno is not for fans who just want a lot of Cenobites and blood. Mind you, I enjoyed Hellraiser 2, 3 and yes (shudder) 4. But each movie had its own distinct reason for being a fun flick. Inferno takes us back to the flavor of the original Hellraiser.Yes, the Cenobites do not get a lot of screen time, perhaps less than even the first movie (I did not time it), but that makes their presence all the more effective when they do appear. The new Cenobite designs are cool, and one is reminscent of one of the fan favorites: Chatterer.Any Hellraiser fan who read the Hellraiser comic book series by Marvel (not the Pinhead and/or Harrowers series, the ones that preceeded those) will enjoy this movie since it follows a very similar premise with focus on the people, utilizing the Cenobites as well placed plot devices.The acting is not Oscar caliber, but it is sufficient to move the movie along. Inferno is a fun ride, but it's not for everyone.
