HellBound HellRaiser II


I am a big fan of The Hellbound Heart and Hellraiser was a great screen adaptation of the novella.  That being said Hellbound Hellraiser II is the rare sequel that surpasses the original.  Pinhead's character is given enough back story to understand his motives, without removing the scary vibe. Ashley Laurence's Kristy gets to be a little stronger yet, still surrounded by uncertainty.  All in all a modern horror classic.  And Kudos to Christopher Young for a bad ass operatic and morose score.
