of the music from Clive Barker's classic horror movie Hellraiser (1987) along with
Hellbound (1988).
And for a late 1980's British Horror movie I thought the crashing opening music was so over
the top. But as I warmed to the films I realized how it was the music that enhanced the films.
I do have a three dvd box set of Hellraiser 1, 2 and 3, of which Hellraiser III Hell on Earth
has to be my favourite. It clearly had a bigger budget with more effects thrown in. And the thing
with the Hellraiser movies is that despite the horror and gory scenes, it actually had quite a bit
of humour in them along with some iconic lines mostly spouted by it's leading actor Pinhead
played by Doug Bradley, the original and only Pinhead for me.
Bradley has often said that if the call came for him to take on the roll of Pinhead then he would
jump at the opportunity. I can't think why he was dropped in the first place. He absolutely owned
the role of Pinhead the leader of the Cenobites. And after he was replaced I guess I lost interest
in the follow up films.
