The new Hellraiser is still on my mind a bit.
There was a scene with, I think, the Priestess/Pinhead: "What do you pray for? Salvation? One harmonious note without end? There is no music in that."
I thought that was a pretty cool line, even if the Cenobites are twisted ****ers.
So I spent the last couple days watching Hellraiser and Hellraiser 2: Hellbound.
I'd have to say, I think they were both enjoyable, but I did not like how anticlimactic the second one was when Kirsty (or whatever) was able to convince the Cenobites that they were people once. That felt really rushed and missed the mark, IMO.
Generally speaking, the Cenobites could have been more menacing. In both originals, they could be reasoned with and that took some of the bite out of the scare factor for them.
