I remember seeing the first movie in the franchise back in the late 80s and it was the film that tweaked my interest in Clive Barker‘s work, now Hellraiser Judgment is being released here in the UK on Blu-ray from the 1st March.

So let’s get straight into this review, my first response Hellraiser Judgment sounds very familiar then it hit me, the film reminds me of Seven with Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman but with the Pinhead and some Cenobites that have been thrown into the mix almost like a Seven vs Hellraiser movie.

As we’ve come to expect from the Hellraiser franchise there is plenty of those gory, blood-soaked, scenes that can make the stomach turn as well as some other uneasy scenes that make you look away, look out for the “cleansing” scene that’s one that had me heaving!

Hmmm ... bit of an odd one, this.

Drama film? Yep. Science Fiction? Possibly (probably).

But don't be thinking 'Star Wars', 'Star Trek' or even '2001: A Space Odyssey' - if anything, the closest correlation I can come up with is 'One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest'

Which might seem a bit odd, but consider: the bulk of this is set in an around a psychiatric hospital, where Kevin Spacey's main character Prot resides after claiming he is from the planet K-Pax, and after being arrested almost immediately after arriving in a train station at the start of the movie.

Jeff Bridges psychiatrist - who, initially, doesn't believe him (well, let's face it: would you?) then sets about uncovering the truth of Prot, digging into his (Prot's) past and uncovering some disturbing revelations.

So, yeah, a bit of an odd one, that largely relies on the charisma of it's two main lead actors.
