‘Hellraiser’ Reboot In The Works For Hulu

By Brent Furdyk.

“Hellraiser” is being revived for Hulu.

Bloody Disgusting was the first outlet to report that the 1987 horror hit will be reimagined as a new movie for the streaming service, to be directed by David Bruckner (who helmed Netflix horror flick “The Ritual”).

The original “Hellraiser” spawned nine sequels — most recently 2018’s “Hellraiser: Judgement” — in addition to a comic book series and several novels.

Written and directed by Clive Barker, “Hellraiser” focused on a mysterious puzzle box that opens a portal to a hellish underworld populated by sadistic Cenobites, mutilated beings who thrive on torture, under the leadership of a Cenobite nicknamed Pinhead (played by Doug Bradley).

Meanwhile, Bloody Disgusting also reminds that a “Hellraiser” series is in development at rival streamer HBO Max, with Barker onboard as executive producer; the outlet notes that the level of Barker’s involvement with the Hulu movie is “unclear.”
