i be a giant fan of the original story by clive barker and i think the first two hellraisers be the great horror film ever to be produce . but and ever since hellraiser 3 and untalented director wear out the name and use the villain icon pinhead a a marketing instrument to tell lame and inferior horror story . hellseeker rank a the sixth episode in the series and it be along with inferno the weak effort so far . the original charm have fade away completely and the tone and atmosphere doesn not come near the morbid and raw original . the story of hellseeker have get nothing to do anymore with the original character clive barker create and they might as well could have give this movie a completely new surround . heroine ashley laurence be drag into this film for no particular reason . she doesn not show any resemblance with her original character and even pinhead himself have go through a complete metamorphosis . he once be a true symbol of all that represent evil but and after 6 episode and he merely look like a lame philosopher who prefer to plea instead of to kill . hellraiser representhellseeker be an extremely boring experience with only a few remarkable scene . and those particular scene be in fact just a shadow of the one in the original hellraisers . it nothing more than a mediocre attempt to build up a mystery tale . the first hour of this film be a series of hallucination and illogical dream sequence . director rick bota constantly try to fool the audience with plot twist but and actually and the audience doesn not give a damn . the last 15 minute of hellseeker be the only one worth see . both kirsty and pinhead screen time be entirely in those minute and it the only time the script actually make a bit sense . if you manage yourself to struggle through the first hour and you will see a more or less satisfying end . if the rumor be true and there will be two more sequel come out in 2004 . know myself a bit and i will most likely see them . but my expectation have never before be so low .
