In these hours, 20th Century Studios released the teaser trailer of Hellraiser, the 11th installment on the Cenobites that has been billed as a "faithful but evolved reimagining, of the 1987 horror classic directed by Clive Barker."
Produced by Spyglass Media Group and tagged Hulu, this reboot features David Bruckner (The Ritual, The Night House) as director.
Hellraiser received a Rating R due to "violence, blood and nudity" and will arrive exclusively on the Hulu platform on October 7, 2022.
The cast includes Brandon Flynn (Thirteen), Drew Starkey (The Streets of Evil), Odessa A'Zion (Ladyworld, Grand Army), and trans actress Jamie Clayton (The Snowman, The Chain), the latter as Pinhead.
The screenplay, on the other hand, is by Ben Collins and Luke Piotrowski (SiREN, Super Dark Times) while Clive Barker appears on the project as a producer.
Hellraiser (1987) by Clive Barker is the first installment of the saga to which nine sequels are connected, the last three of which are unpublished in Italy. The film is based on the short horror novel Slaves of hell (The Hellbound Heart) by the same director.
The history of all the chapters of Hellraiser is connected to a cube called the "Configuration of Lamentations" or "Lemarchand Box." It is an object with a puzzle structure that, when solved, opens the door to the dimension of pain and, more specifically, hell, where victims will be tortured forever by Pinhead and his Cenobites.
