>new Hellraiser game>it actually looks goodWhat the fuck?
>Hellraiser>video game
>>732765987>is... is that BODY HORROR>OHH MY REDDIT THIS LOOKS SO GOODhellraiserfags are like the saw fags of the 90s
>>732765987A small, passionate development team can produce very good games. Look at the guys who made the Terminator and Robocop games.They're not perfect but they drip SOVL.
We have such DLC to show you.
>>732765987i forgot about this, when is it supposed to release?
>>732765987Has anything good come out from this franchise since the first movie?
>>732766329cool art
>>732766329The second movie. Hopefully this game too.
>>732766082Yes?
>>732765987Learn how to make a thread, retard.
>>732766170This might be the most regarded thing I’ve read on this board in a good while. Hellraiser has one single good movie (the original) and is talked about nowhere near enough to be considered “reddit”. Are you mixing up body horror with lovecraftian?
>>732766329The book the movie is based onThere's a shitload of comics of varying qualityThe reboot was okay
>>732766263Sometime this year is all we know.
>>732768048Fuck off, underage.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=n0lSTJtp1VsSince OP is a fag and didn't mention the new trailer.
>>732765987I'll be happy if it's a solid 6/10 with loads of fanservice.
The one positive thing I heard about the survival action gameplay is they mentioned that Clive Barker had input on the amount of action, so hopefully it isn't too much of a slog to get through
>make a deal with needle face to kill degenerates>foid dies in the beginningsounds fun
Who the fuck prefers the first movie to the second? It's so goddamn boring. The second movie has everything.
>>732765987is that girlfriend of his not just the lesbian from Cyberpunk 2077?as for the game I wish it the best as I do with most AA titles but I fear for boring level design and solely RE7 style melee combat
>>732771515this is that one story from kwaidan lol
>>7327744631 > 2
>>732774463second is mad corny
Demons to some, angels to others
>>732774463The one thing I really hate about the second movie is that it explains the cenobites.They were much cooler as just mysterious and incomprehensible abominations from another dimension.
>>732774463The first movie is more cleanly put together overall, outside of a few dumb effects
But will it have over 100 demons to escape from? I think not.
>>732779714man i changed my mind - the part where pinhead gets a flashback is soulful
>>732768413The 2022 reboot is pretty good. I wish they'd hurry up on the sequel.>>732774463The second is shit for how it makes the original crew bitches who go down to a newborn cenobite like they're nothing and how it introduces that retarded "hands don't call us" shit that the original movie contradicts.
>>732766170being a faggot isn't a personality, try being a real person
has anyone read the books? are they good or just gay fetish porn?
>>732781091Gay fetish porn.
>>732766329The recent movie is good.
>>732781091I've read The Hellbound Heart and Hellbound Hearts.Hellbound Hearts is mostly trash, but it has the Female Cenobite's backstory written by her second actress so it's worth it just for the novelty of that one short story. The Hellbound Heart is good, though. A fun detail that the movies can't have is that the cenobites come with a strong smell of vanilla that fails to hide the fact that they reek.
>>732781091weaveworld is fun and goofy i was going to read cabal after that
>>732766329The second movie.
I hope there's an ending where you become a cenobite.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FyK4bPfFMF8
>>732785406I think you're probably in your own personal hell being fucked with for the lulz like Frank was in Hellbound.
scorn was already a better hellraiser game than hellraiser could be
>>732785841lmao what a retard. You have no idea what both are about.
>>732785759>AHHHHHH THE SEXY WOMEN DISSAPPEAR EVERY TIME I GET CLOSE THIS IS SO MUCH WORSE THAN BEING FORCE FED MY OWN INTESTINES WHILE MY SKIN IS PEELED OFF SAVE ME KIRSTYMANWas pretty dumb desu. Why didn't he just beat his meat?
what was the deal with the cube moviesi dont remember any sort of resolution or anything its just here have some randos getting annihilated by whatever random trap among these identical rooms
>>732785972ascension through suffering
>>732781091Scarlet Gospels makes them demons from Christian Hell with Lucifer and everything
>>732781568Also, the cenobites aren't just about touch. If you agree to play, all your senses from smell to hearing are multiplied by like a million times to painful extremes.
>>732786306I remember the prologue with Pinhead hunting down the magicians was kino then it got super gay and I dropped it after a couple chapters.
>>732786032Maybe that's just the place they put him to fuck with him when they're too busy for degloving his cock over and over and over again
>>732767359>>732782480The second movie is almost autistic fan fiction tier.When I was in middleschool I had a friend who was one of those Todd McFarlane autists who collected all those Spawn toys and various detailed movie monster action figures. Among them were several Hellraiser toys. He was "that kid" that was kind of known for sperging out and bullshitting about some shit to make it sound cooler.So when he showed me the evil doctor from Hellraiser 2 figure and was explaining the movie to me I thought he was bullshitting and never actually saw the movie (He made up shit sometimes, like saying there was a feature length Realm of the Claw movie by Stan Winston).>Pinhead teaming up with the protagonist to fight the greater evil, mad doctor who merges with satan himself.It just sounds fake and gay and not like a horror movie at all.But nah my friend wasn't bullshitting and every autistic thing he said about it was 100% true. I should have known better, since similar things happened to shit like the Puppet Master franchise. There should be a term for it when some super nerd writer who gushes about horror movie monsters gets into the writers room and starts trying to turn horror icons into anti-heroes, completely missing the point.Last big example of this was the Silent Hill 2 movie where Pyramid head is exactly that and the climax of the film is a sword fight between him and some monster chick.
>>732786034First one is pure kino and has a "who knows" ending. Second one had some of the worst CGI imaginable. Third one commits the cardinal sin of explaining the "why." Bottom line is, watch the first one and forget the others exist.
>>732786861nigger Hellraiser 1 literally climaxes with Pinhead swooping in to save the little girl from her pedophile uncle
>>732786963>Little Girl>Pedophile Uncle>He swooped in to save herDidn't watch the movie.
>>732786872The second one is alright despite the bad CGI. The Third one is really bad though, despite the glowie director being an entertaining character.
>>732786861>similar things happened to shit like the Puppet Master franchiseRemember when they made the guy on the run from the Nazis into a Nazi?>>732786963>little girlShe's a grown woman. And he was going to go back on his deal and take her, too.
>>7327744632 has great set pieces but it completely loses the plot in the second half. Also magic demon surgery/blood transfusion making someone into a Cenobite near instantly is lame and cheapens the depravity of the cenobites imo.
>>732787210>Remember when they made the guy on the run form the nazis into a naziNo, but I do remember the one where a big demon guy summons masked digimon puppets for the heroic Blade and co to fight.
>>732766329no because they fundamentally don't understand it
>>732768413>regarded
>>732787220I think that scene was written to be a time dilation thing, where he spent an eternity inside the box but it just looks instant from our view.
>>732787210To be fair, she went back on the deal first ("No, you can't have him!"). Even then, after Frank was revealed, he told her to gtfo ("This isn't for your eyes") but she stayed to watch Frank get torn apart, showing part of her was fascinated and she wasn't so innocent.
Still better than the official lore where Pinhead is literally just a demon in actual christian hell and gets owned by Lucifer after fighting Clive's equivalent of John Constantine (complete with trenchcoat, except he was created before Constantine)
>>732765987>HellraiserI've never even seen the first one, is this one of those franchises where the first movie is good and all the sequels are money grabbing trash?
>>732787772>except he was created before ConstantineI looked it up and Constantine first appeared before the first book came out
>>732787813Yes there's no reason to watch anything but the 1st one.
>>732787813The second one and the remake might be worth watching but other then that no
>>732787813The first, Inferno, and the reboot are my picks for watchable ones.
>>732787926>Harry D'Amour is a fictional occult detective created by author, filmmaker, and artist Clive Barker. He originally appeared in the short story The Last Illusion in Books of Blood Volume 6, an anthology written by Barker and published in 1985.>Constantine was created by Alan Moore, Steve Bissette, and John Totleben, and first appeared in Swamp Thing #37 (June 1985)I suppose both came out at the same time and are basically literally the same character archetypeBarker has a lot of lesser known stories like that one with the fantasy land inside a literal carpet
>>732787813The first one is an interesting concept. There is a puzzle box that opens a portal to hell, where torture demons exist. A depraved super coomer opens it in his brother's attic seeking new experiences and gets killed by them, his soul tortured in "hell"Due to how the hell portal works, if someone spills blood on the spot the person was supernaturally killed their souls are allowed to escape in the form of an undead, skinless homonculus burn from it. However to return to a normal existence they must consume the flesh of other humans.The Uncle comes back this way and has his brothers wife who is his side piece helps him murder people while hi niece is trying to figure shit out, culminating in her opening the box and trying to make a deal with the demons to take her uncle back to hell.It's a unique concept where the villain isn't the demons, the demons are more of a plot device and a lot of people probably thought that was kind of "fresh" for a film at the time.However monster autism demanded movies with more of a focus on the demons, so you get a lot of trash.
>>732765987>saberYIKES
>>732787813First one is pure kino highly recommend.
>>732765987>single player gameI am pretty disappointed since I thought it would be another asym game that would compete with dbd. I guess we can only pray that the Halloween game does well to shake up dbd.
I'm cautiously optimistic.I wanted to like Agony and Lust from Beyond for the general themes and shit, but they sucked assThis could be an actual decent game
>>732788754Bro, every asymmetrical game from a horror franchise fails.>Predator Hunting Grounds>Texas Chain Saw Massacre>Puppet Master>Evil Dead>Friday the 13th
