Movie Maniac added 1 item to Hated or Divisive Movies That I LOVED list

Often Hated For: Being the one millionth installment in a series of direct to video sequels churned out by a studio just wanting to keep the rights to the property, being yet another installment to not have Doug Bradley as villain Pinhead, lacking the involvement of certain parties, and having a low budget. Reason I Love It: For those actually familiar with Clive Barker's fiction outside of the realm of Hellraiser (The Hellbound Heart)this movie is the MOST Barker-like Hellraiser movie since the first one. Most notably it blends the legendary writer's penchant to weave in the bureaucracy of heaven and hell into his gruesome and darkly fantastical tales. Gary J. Tunnicliffe (longtime makeup artist for the series and this installment's writer/director) clearly has a love for a material that makes this one stand out from the rest. Besides the elements that hearken Barker's work, the film manages to pack quite a visual punch with an impressive array of effects that bring life to the vision,especially given this was an incredibly low budget affair. Minor flaws and production pitfalls are forgivable in light of a Hellraiser story with ambition to expand the mythos and a legitimate creative energy.

Movie Maniac posted a review of The Help

“A fantastic ensemble cast gives us a peek at a time when the most disparaged people in American society were, ironically, responsible for its future generations. "The Help" is a drama about the willful ignorance of many and the self-realization of the subjugated few. It is about finding beauty in da” read more
