Hellraiser Blu-rayStarz / Anchor Bay | 1987 | 93 mins | Rated R | Apr 21, 2009
Hellraiser(1987)Fantasy | Horror ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Evil Julia helps her lover, Frank, come back to the mortal world from hell. Because Frank has used the Lament Configuration box to taste pleasures outside the normal realm of human sensation, freeing him from hell unleashes Pinhead and a menagerie of demons (cenobites) back unto earth. For more details about Hellraiser on Blu-ray, see the Hellraiser Blu-ray Review Director: Clive Barker Hellraiser Blu-ray, Video QualityStarz summons Hellraiser onto Blu-ray with a rather good 1080p transfer framed inside a 1.85:1 window. This is a transfer that isn't sparkly and crisp, but it captures the film's intended look nicely. Detail is appreciably high; the many dreary, unkempt locales, from messy, bug-infested kitchens and dusty attics to the finer details of a particularly nasty creature that roams the corridor that leads to another dimension, this disc reveals about all the detail there is to be seen. The transfer features a continuous and rather heavy layer of grain. Black levels are also strong, and there are many dark corners and backgrounds throughout the film, each of which generally offer deep, inky blacks, usually covered with a bit of grain, that adds to the dark, desperate, and fearful themes of the film. Perhaps most importantly, viewers will see the grisly and horrific gore in all its detail on this Blu-ray disc; there is plenty to be seen, more than most any other movie available on the format. The reds of blood and puddles of fluids, flesh, and other bodily matter seen throughout will please gore fans and churn the stomachs of those that are unprepared for what awaits in this Blu-ray release of Hallraiser. Hellraiser Blu-ray, Audio Quality![]() Hellraiser debuts on Blu-ray with a quality Dolby TrueHD 5.1 lossless soundtrack. The audio is occasionally somewhat bland and uninteresting. Dialogue sequences sound slightly detached and lacking in volume but not clarity. The music heard throughout the movie is pleasantly strong; it's fairly clear, and oftentimes finds itself pouring out of the rear channels in addition to the front. Hellraiser offers a fairly active 360-degree sound field. Chapter four features both bass and the score taking on a louder, more aggressive tone as Frank's bloody shell rises from the floorboards. The track enjoys many good directional effects, a brief scene of a train speeding across the soundstage from left to right and a subsequent fluttering of birds heard from every corner of the listening area makes for some of the more aggressive surround moments of the presentation. The film's finale also offers a robust and hard-hitting sound presentation. Hellraiser makes for a surprisingly engaging listen on Blu-ray.
