Thirty years later, the Cenobites are coming back together.

With Clive Barker’s classic horror film turning 30 this year, there’s a lot of fun stuff currently going on in the world of Hellraiser. For starters, brand new sequel Hellraiser: Judgment is headed our way real soon, and as we reported yesterday, Barker himself just helped redesign Pinhead for a special makeup demo at Monsterpalooza this past weekend. If you’re a Hellraiser fan, you’ll also want to keep your eye on the upcoming short The Offer, due out this year.

Set for release on August 1st via Dead Mouse Productions and Cult Screenings UK, The Offer reunites five stars of the original Hellraiser franchise for a brand new tale of horror. The cast includes Kenneth Cranham (Channard), Barbie Wilde (Female Cenobite), Oliver Smith (Frank Cotton/Mr Browning), Simon Bamford (Butterball), and Nicholas Vince (Chatterer).

Furthermore, the film features effects by Stuart Conran (Hellraiser & Hellraiser 2)!

In the short, directed by Chris Griffiths and Gary Smart…

Seven strangers are invited to a house to partake in a game to win £10,000,000. Only when they arrive do they realize that they are trapped in the battle to the death by the mysterious Host. Some offer’s are too good to be good!

Up next from indie director Bruce Wemple (Monstrous, Dawn of the Beast) comes The Hangman, which will release in limited theaters on May 31 before it hits VOD June 6.

In Dread’s latest horror movie, “During a camping trip from hell, a father battles a murderous cult and a bloodthirsty demon, known as The Hangman, to save his kidnapped son.”

Lindsey Dresbach, Richard Lounello, Jefferson Cox, Daniel Martin Berkey and Mar Cellus star.

Here’s the full synopsis: “To mend their troubled relationship, a middle-aged door-to-door salesman, Leon (LeJon Woods), takes his teenage son on a camping trip into deep rural Appalachia. Little do they know of the mountainous region’s sinister secrets. A local cult has summoned an evil demon born of hate and pain, known to them as The Hangman, and now the bodies have begun to pile up. Leon wakes up in the morning to discover that his son is missing.”

“To find him, Leon must face the murderous cult and the bloodthirsty monster that is The Hangman.”

Director Bruce Wemple said in a statement, “We set out to tell a story about the lengths a father will go to get his son back, including coming face to face with a bloodthirsty demon raised from hell. We can’t wait for audiences to come along for the ride.”
