In the 22nd century a brilliant scientist strives to banish the evil which his ancestor had unwittingly leashed upon the world. The stakes have never been higher in the battle to save man from hell on earth and only Paul Merchant has the ability and knowledge to trap the Black Prince of Hell--Pinhead. The fate of the world rides in their final cataclysmic confrontation. It all began with a simple puzzle box, commissioned by a mysterious count from the scientist's ancestor, toymaker Phillipe Lemarchand in the 18th century. This box, the Lament Configuration, contained incredible power. It was in fact the door to hell, and allowed the demons of the underworld to rage on earth. The descendants of Lemarchand are forever cursed, until somehow they can find a way to close the portal. Paul Merchant is their final hope. (forgalmazó hivatalos szövege)

Wow! This is a screenwriting monstrosity of biblical proportions. The special effects are good, but can’t save the plot. The film has no atmosphere whatsoever, Pinhead is not very impressive, either. Utter dud, really. The story takes place on three timelines and I can’t decide which is the worst, they all felt equally bad. Very weak two stars and only because I’m in an amicable mood right now. My ranking: H1, H5, H2, H7, H3, H4, H6, H8

This is the first installment in the Hellraiser series that I liked. Let's leave aside the cheerful framing in the future, which in and of itself brings a logical end to the whole concept, but the historical storyline together with the present one is exactly what I expected from the series. The Cenobite Angelique is my favorite, the twins are fine, and in general, the whole thing is so pleasantly reminiscent of Adrian Doyle's "Vampira." What do you all have against that? The Cenobite JP is going to get you. I've grown tired of all the skinning and chains. But it's also a fact that Jason X has scared a lot of us. This is the order in which I like the films overall: Hellraiser 8, Hellraiser 5, Hellraiser 4, Hellraiser 7, Hellraiser 2, Hellraiser 6, Hellraiser 1, Hellraiser 3, Hellraiser 9.

"Hellraiser: The Hell Rider," which by the way is another strange Czech title - "Bloodline" would sound better and capture the essence of the film - is a very bad piece within the entire series, but considering how many parts there are already, I'm almost certain there will be even worse pieces. However, this one is incredibly cluttered and actually without a plot, where nothing really happens, that you will still fondly remember the first film.
