Some horror properties naturally lend themselves to incessant sequels, while others seem to will themselves into existence through sheer will, as if they’re the result of a demonic possession.

As we prepare for David Bruckner’s new take on Clive Barker‘s iconic text Hellraiser, what better time to re-evaluate the state of the franchise up to this point? Even a cursory glance at the ten existing Hellraiser films (four theatrical, six direct-to-video) reveals that not all Cenobite films are made equal. And while the top […]

Like Alfred Hitchcock, Scott Derrickson seems intimately curious about people driven by their inability to let things go. Ethan Hawke plays two sides of this coin, first in Sinister and […]
