Upcoming Short ‘The Offer’ Reunites Five Original ‘Hellraiser’ Stars
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!

Sony returns to their own Marvel universe with the upcoming Kraven the Hunter, which has been bumped all over the release schedule. This week, it’s been bumped once more.
There was a time when Sony was going to unleash Kraven in theaters in October 2023, but the film was then bumped to August 2024. It’ll now release on December 13, 2024.
Kraven the Hunter will be the very first Marvel movie from Sony to be released into theaters with an “R” rating, with lots of bloody violence being promised.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the title character, Marvel’s ultimate predator.
“Kraven the Hunter is the visceral story about how and why one of Marvel’s most iconic villains came to be. Set before his notorious vendetta with Spider-Man, Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the titular character in the R-rated film.”
Ariana DeBose will play Calypso in the upcoming Kraven the Hunter movie.
Christopher Abbott (Possessor) is playing The Foreigner, with Levi Miller (Better Watch Out) also on board. Alessandro Nivola (The Many Saints of Newark) will play another villain, but character details are under wraps. Russell Crowe and Fred Hechinger also star.
J.C. Chandor (A Most Violent Year) is directing Kraven the Hunter.
The screenplay was written by Art Marcum & Matt Holloway and Richard Wenk.
