The "Hellraiser" Films and Their Legacy

Explores not only the cinematic interpretations of the Hellraiser mythos but also its intrusion into other artistic and cultural forms. This book examines various themes (such as the undermining of the traditional family unit) found throughout the film series and the ways in which the representation of these themes changes from film to film.

Characters central to the franchise - and the mythos - are examined in detail. Included is a foreword by actor Doug Bradley, who portrayed the infamous "Pinhead".
