Hell used to be a better place, 10 July 2002
3/10
Author: Geraldo Amaral Filho (gamaralf@zipmail.com.br) from Goiânia, Brazil

I liked the first two Hellraiser movies, they had good ideas and good scary visual, but I did not like Hellraiser III. I think it was made at the beginning of the CGI (Computer Generated Graphics) effects "fashion", but CGI was not yet prepared for a horror movie, at least not with their budget :) Props, make-up and even stop-motion would do a better job.

Oh! And (sadly) there were the new kinds of cenobites. I did not watch this sequel to see what new cenobite would came up, I was expecting a good and clever horror movie like the other ones, but instead I got lame cenobites, bad CGI effects, badly used cliches and a weak story. Sometimes it seemed they were making a bad parody. I even did not want to see the following movies, afraid that they would make dislike the whole series.
