Pinhead Plans a New Era of Nightmares in First ‘Hellraiser: Judgment’ Clip [Exclusive]
Gary J. Tunnicliffe‘s Hellraiser: Judgment, which arrives on Blu-ray, DVD, and On Demand February 13, 2018, wastes no time getting into the suffering.
Bloody Disgusting has an exclusive look at the opening scene in which Paul T. Taylor makes his debut as the new Pinhead. Lemarchand’s puzzle box also appears as Pinhead speaks to the evolution of misery with the Auditor. “Technology may have advanced, but sin remains unchanged,” says Pinhead before the Auditor chimes in, “Mankind has become a vacuum without morality.”
“[The clip] goes a little way to explain some of the new mythology and mechanisms, and you finally get to see and hear our new Pinhead in action,” Tunnicliffe, who also played the Auditor, said about the following sequence. “We would love to be able to show more images and clips, but finding something that isn’t too blood-drenched, violent, creepy, or contains nudity is proving tricky!”
The tenth film in the classic horror series tells the story of three detectives as they struggle to solve a horrifying murder, but instead find themselves thrust into the depths of Pinhead’s hellacious landscape.
“Three detectives trying to stop a diabolical serial killer are sucked into a maze of otherworldly horror, where hellish denizens including the Auditor, the Assessor, and the Jury await to pass judgment.”
Including a cameo by horror icon Heather Langenkamp (A Nightmare on Elm Street), Hellraiser: Judgment stars Damon Carney, Randy Wayne, Alexandra Harris, John Gulager, Mike Jay Regan, Diane Goldner, Andi Powers, Jeff Fenter, Helena Grace Donald, and Grace Montie (read about their roles).
Sunrise Films has announced the official North American release of William Bagley‘s horror comedy Hold the Fort, and it’s accompanied by an energetic new trailer.
Hold the Fort debuts on digital platforms on June 23.
In the film, “Lucas and Jenny think their life is finally coming together when the couple become homeowners. Little do they know that their new house comes with a big catch. Lucas and Jenny soon find themselves in a fight for their lives when they become trapped in a battle between their Homeowners Association and an onslaught of monsters from hell. The horror-comedy takes the timely concern of home-ownership and wraps this up in an entertaining action-packed thrill ride.“
Watch the new trailer below, which introduces one wild HOA gathering during an equinox. Things get bloody fast.
Chris Mayers (Adult Swim Yule Log), Haley Leary (“The Walking Dead”), Levi Burdick, and Julian Smith star.
William Bagley writes and directs, in addition to producing with Smith, Matt Dodd, Luke Williams, and Tim Reis (Adult Swim Yule Log).
Ahead of the release, Bagley said, “My goal with this film was to make a hilarious, fast-paced thrill ride while also telling a great story with heart. Hopefully, through all the blood, laughs, fights, and gags, you leave the film feeling inspired to tackle whatever life throws at you.“
Hold the Fort premiered at Fantasia last summer before going on to play FrightFest London, Toronto After Dark, and Beyond Fest.
I wrote in my review, “It’s an infectiously charming assemblage of jokes and monster vignettes bound together by a barebones plot with not much on its mind beyond delivering an entertaining time.”
