Review by Bruno Oliveira

Hellraiser 2022

Just watched and I really like it. i just love the cenobites designs, but i think some just looked like "plastic skin".
The story is "ok" to be fair, the first movie has a better "motivation" to drive the story forward ( the love of a woman to a man who has been taken by the cenobites and was willing to do everything to have him back ). This movie has a similar story, but i think it lacked more development from the brother.
It's EASILY the best one so far after the original one.

and oh... the last scene where Voight is skinned inside the leviathan to become one of the cenobites is awesome! that gives some backstory that I really appreciated. I just wish that the scene was longer and more detailed, like showing other cenobites or a "supreme" cenobite performing the procedures to turn voight into a cenobite.

about the pinhead controversy.. it doesn't affect the movie at all. it was great to see a new design! I don't see the "sex" of the cenobites, just see them as "beings" the body is irrelevant to them, they just want pain extracted from the flesh and that's it. pinhead is a result of that, not a he or she.
