DVD Reviews of Hellraiser - Deader
DVD Review: Deader is Funner
Summary: 3 Stars
As would be expected from the seventh entry in a series that started to lose steam (that's being generous, Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth, Hellraiser: Hellseeker, and Hellraiser: Inferno are flat-out dreadful), Hellraiser: Deader leaves much to be desired. What is nice, though, is that Doug Bradley is reliable as always as Pinhead and he's actually IN THE FILM, rather than being turned into a cameo as he was in some previous films (note his three or so minutes of screen time in Hellraiser: Inferno). Kari Wuhrer is a good sport and plays her part perfectly alongside Bradley. The change of location to the seedy underground of London and then various European locales is a nice change, and I liked the concept of the Deaders. All in all, the film is an entertaining and consistently enjoyable romp through the world of Pinhead if you're a fan of the series. It's not nearly as ridiculous and brilliantly hilarious as Hellraiser: Bloodline, but it has its moments. For those of you not used to the series - some of the foreign actors are a bit sketchy with shaky accents, the screenplay may just as well have been thrown on the floor with scenes acted at random, camera work is on par with most direct-to-video horror films, etc. If you're a fan, it's a worthy entry. If you're not, it's probably a waste of time to start with this one - go back to Hellraiser and Hellbound: Hellraiser II. Or not. This is a series not suited to everyone's taste given that three of the eight entries are too graphic for an R rating, but it's certainly a step up from the Friday the 13th series and about on level with Nightmare on Elm Street.DVD Review: Not what I expected, the ending is drab
Summary: 2 Stars
I love hellraiser 1 and inferno, hellraiser 2 is o.k. but some of it got kind of confused, not that I was confused but the picture seemed to be that way. In Hellraiser Deader, I found it to be a yaaaan at certain times, the only uppside to this picture was pinhead himself. The story line seems rushed and thrown together, the only hellraiser worse than this one is hellraiser, hellworld.DVD Review: Short film - No More Souls (Bonus on Hellraiser: Deader)

Summary: 2 Stars
Benjamin Carr wrote this, the seventh film in the Hellraiser series. It's unlikely that you've heard of any of the other thirty titles he has under his belt as a writer (except maybe for Thirteen Ghosts). Most of his movies have names like The Killer Eye, or Hideous!, or Murdercycle (which is available on this website for $1.61). I kinda wished I known that before going into HELLRAISER - DEADER. Not that I'm digging Benjamin Carr. I certainly haven't written 31 movies, but even he must admit, when he whips out a script entitled Zarkorr! The Invader, he's not really in it for the prestige or the artistic challenge. Good for him for making a living out of it. Bad for you, if you watch this film.
The plot is nothing we haven't already seen in at least two of the HELLRAISER films and a handful of the more commercial projects to hit the big screens in the last five years. The story concerns Amy Klein, a fiesty young reporter who will go to any lengths to get the story. She must be something of a big deal because she's unaccountably arrogant. This is saying a lot, considering how many other arrogant characters have been strewn about the plot. (In fact, if you can last up to twenty seconds into the final credits, the eighth character listed is called The Arrogant Reporter, and they aren't referring to Amy Klein).
Amy's boss, Charles Richmond, endures her with the same snarky respect that you can find in any other boss with a brilliant but reckless charge: M from Bond, Lois Lane's boss (all I can remember is they called him Chief), and whoever happens to be Will Smith's supervisor in three out of four Will Smith movies. You growl, you make snide comments, and then you let your star employee do his/her thing. In an intro gorged with exposition, Charles reveals that this time around he has a special assignment for Amy. It comes in the form of a video tape.
The tape is from a girl who is documenting a group of people known as Deaders, nihilistic ne'er-do-wells led by a man called Winter. "Fear is the place we go to learn," Winter says to a young redhead, in one of the movie's few good lines. (Carr must've known it was good; it is repeated several times.) In the video, the redhead repeats phrases like "I'm not real," and "Nothing's real," before finally killing herself. Then, somehow, Winters brings her back to life. Sounds like front page material.
You know, the funny thing? This homemade video that had been sent specifically to Amy Klein, it's meant to look gritty and real, but the production values on it are at least as good as the larger movie within which it is shown. It's like a little mini-Hellraiser film. "Look here! It's a Cliff's Notes form of the plot you're about to watch."
No. I didn't give the movie away. I hate it when people do that. Suffice it to say that the movie gives itself away, especially after Amy discovers Pinhead's box and -- in a classic move -- does exactly what she's been warned not to do. During her investigation, Amy runs into some kind of kingpin named Joey. Whatever Joey is, he for some reason has commandeered and lives in the last car of a subway train. When Amy visits him, it is a surreal scene of ambiguously disturbing acts of varying degrees of nudity. It's so off-the-wall and well-spaced that it comes across like a museum of depravity, another cheesy room in your neighbor's haunted house. Joey helps Amy because she's "got that [ahem] self-destructive thing going on." Another good line (and in keeping with the Hellraiser spirit). So good that it is repeated several more times.
But parroting a theme doesn't make it real. And if the movie's other good line -- that we learn through fear -- is real, then this movie has two strikes against it, because it is neither scary nor smart. It is actually very much like the video tape that gets Amy involved in this quest to begin with. Both of them pack a bit of a punch in places, both of them are a little too slick to take seriously, and both of them are confusing and unsatisfying. What are their differences?
One of them is about 86 minutes longer.
