Hellraiser : Hellworld (2005) 5/10

Starring : Lance Henriksen, Katheryn Winnick, Christopher Jacot, Khary Payton, Doug Bradley
Director : Rick Bota
Running Time : 91 mins

Following the death of one of their friends – who was obsessed with an online game called Hellworld – five teens receive invitations from the game to attend an exclusive party in a remote mansion. They arrive to find an orgiastic atmosphere, but behind the scenes they discover that they may in fact be in hell.

Yet another horror movie that had the mythos of Hellraiser copied and pasted into it, which forces all of the movies to have a bluff ending. Throughout this movie I got more and more cross as Pinhead and friends started killing people who had nothing to do with the puzzlebox, only to have the whole movie be a complete cop out as it comes to a close. Fans of the original series will be annoyed by this, but it might go down reasonably with those less familiar with the original.
