| 10.12.06 | Alamo Village | You know, this had way more beginning than I remember it. Actually it sort of feels like the whole movie is a beginning... but I think my far-off memories are intermingling the first movie with the second, which I only remember liking much more than this. Still though, there are a few things in here that are pretty creepy... it's just that it's a fairly slow movie and, in following the general trend of horror franchises, they barely show the monsters at all in the first one. Those cenobites do look cool though... and that box is one of the best movie props of all time. Ultimately, I'm glad I got to see this theatrically... it'd been a super long time since seeing it the last time, but the biggest thing it did to me was make me want to see Hellbound to check if my childhood memories mirror that of Beverly Hills Cop or if the second Hellraiser actually was better. jesus wept. |
