region 2?


I was wondering whether theres any word on the 6th, 7th and 8th Hellraiser movies coming out in the UK? The 5th (finally) came out about 2 years ago but still no word on the other 3.

After seeing 4 and 5 I was disapointed, but I would like to see how bad they can get. Because, I've heard these are bad. But I'm one of those people who, if I see one (and like it) I want to see the every one of them.

For me, 1 and 2 were the only ones which were good. Three was ok. After that they became something to laugh at.

But like you Benji, I would like to know if and when they will be released in the UK.

I had to resort to getting hellseeker, Deader and Hellworld off amazon and have them imported as Inferno came out Feb 2002. Four years later and still no sign of further UK releases!What gives?

Well there not in canada either, i had to go trough torrent personally. i know i could have buy it on ebay etc, but i did not feel to put over 15$ for them, because first there not done in french(in quebec we speak french as the main language) and second i knew i would probably watch them one time and that it. If they would have be for rent at the video club then i would have rent them, even if just in english(of course i prefer french but i understand english perfectly too) but since they where not, i had no shame turning to torrents...

when is hellseeker coming out?
whenever dimension feel like it unfortunatly!
i hated the film with a passion but i still think it is utterly ridiculous that hellraiser fans in the uk have to wait for dimension to pull their fingers outta their asses.
but as soon as i find out i will try and let you know

I know that the films will be really bad. I am now at the point of telling my self there are only three "Hellraiser" films.

But thank you for any imformation you have. If they ever do come out.

when will it hit region 2 is a misnomer. The Netherlands is Region 2 and this has been out (1.33:1) for some time on DVD.

After waiting a couple of years for 6,7 and 8 to come out in the UK I found them on ebay from the netherlands. Got them today and have no problem watching them as they are already set up to play in English. Well packaged and priced too.

It suck that they haven't been released over here yet (and probably never will) they haven't even ever been submitted to the bbfc (check the site)

6, 7 and 8 all sucked, you can easily get a torrent that has all 8 films (not exactly illegal if you just download the last 3), yes I know this won't please the completists and big Hellraiser fans but at least you can watch them and see how *beep* they are instead of paying more than you really should by importing them
