The other characters aren't that fascinating either. And even with budgetary limitations, the special effects never suffer. Is anyone paying attention to the Hellraiser machine anymore?

Cenobite makeup effects are solid for the most part – skin pulled like facial sphincters, lips removed – and there’s one memorable kill that involves a 21-year-old daddy’s girl who worships her dog (false God), but we’re otherwise robbed of Lemarchand interest. Like I said, the opening “trial” will test your stomach and carve some BDSM nightmares – but even for an 80-minute movie, corpses are livelier than atmospheric details.

With Damon Carney, Randy Wayne, Alexandra Harris, Heather Langenkamp. Horror, pizza and basketball connoisseur. With constant rumours of big budget remakes and reboots of Hellraiser, it was somewhat of a surprise when Hellraiser: Judgement was announced. I know most of these Hellraiser movies pose some kind of cheap narrative that walks humans into Pinhead’s web, but this tangled mess is one of the least realized, most throwaway of them all (the “I’m back!” sequence made me L-O-L).

The two muse over Heaven’s intentions and what it means for Hell.
It's a mixed bag, with the stuff I enjoyed ultimately outweighed by the stuff I did not. The footage is ugly, pulling the grit and grime out of Nine Inch Nails’ Broken VHS and delivering a revolting series of sequences that tapped on my gag-reflex.
Audience Reviews for Hellraiser: Judgment. Then in stumbles The Assessor (Jon Gulager) – a piggish slob of a man – who eats the written pages and vomits the mashed contents down a tube. While the scenes in Hell are visceral and captivating, the film is let down by its human element. Detectives Sean and David Carter are on the case to find a gruesome serial killer terrorizing the city. This is not a favourable comparison and while the former has its own cult following and offers some ludicrous enjoyment at times, Judgement is weighed down by its own solemnity. Sean finds a connection between a local criminal that went missing and an abandoned house – 55 Ludovico Place. A serial killer known as the Preceptor has been killing people based on the Ten Commandments. Sean and David follow a Seven-ish inspired route with their assigned watchdog Detective Christine Egerton (Alexandra Harris) in the mix – conversations about Charles Dickens and alcoholism reign supreme (like, plentiful Dickens references).

With news that a reboot is still going ahead and that HBO have commissioned a TV series, concepts proposed by Tuncliffe might be explored further. Doug Bradley was still out of the picture but Pinhead did return with Paul T. Taylor in the roll as the Hell Priest, taking over from Stephen Smith Collins in Revelations. Frankly, I liked Hellraiser: Judgment better when it was The Devil’s Carnival.

Pinhead eventually gets pissed, defies God, but – again – this is all after a lackluster criminal case plays out with weightless genre devotion.

Gore is, for lack of a better descriptor, used liberally when possible. The imagery is creepy and the pacing is brisk, but the story is a faded carbon copy of other, better serial killer thrillers, and the new additions to the Hellraiser mythology rob the Cenobites of their deviant allure and otherworldly menace.
