Hellraiser Podcast

In this little mini bonus episode we discuss the recent breaking(ish) news that there is a Hellraiser TV show in the works, being brought to us by HBO. We go through all the details there are at the moment and what we could expect to see from the show. Exciting times! Join us on Twitter @HellraiserCast 

We return to the EPIC comics for a self-isolated quarantined chat. Due to the COVID-19 coronavirus Peter & Phil have had to record separately and then splice the two halves together but we hope that it still sounds the same as usual.  After a little bit of Hellraiser news about the current reboot in the works we launch into a discussion of Books 9 & 10, featuring stories by Lana Wachowski, Nicholas Vince, Scott Hampton and D. G. Chichester. Join us as we discuss Russian Roulette, the heavyweight champion of the world, and a dive back into the world of The Devil's Brigade. Join us on Twitter @HellraiserCast

As a bonus podcast here is Episode 1 of Peter & Phil's brand new podcast Horror Movie Maniacs. We are branching out and beginning a more general discussion about horror movies, beginning with 1984's A Nightmare on Elm Street directed by Wes Craven. Don't worry - we're still going to be doing more Hellraiser as well!  Subscribe to Horror Movie Maniacs in your podcast delivery service of choice and follow us on Twitter @ManiacsHorror    

We discuss the 2009 movie Dread, based on the short story from Clive Barker's Books of Blood. Join the fear study - what scares you? What fills you with dread? What does sexy mean to you? @HellraiserCast  

We interview Paul Kane, who Clive Barker himself describes as the "resident Hellraiser expert". We discuss his books "The Hellraiser Films and their Legacy" and "Sherlock Holmes and the Servants of Hell" as well as a chat about conventions, writing and basically becoming a part of the horror world.  Twitter: @HellraiserCast

We discuss the 2009 movie Book of Blood, based on two short stories from Clive Barker's fantastic collection The Books of Blood. There are some familiar Hellraiser faces - cameos from Doug "Pinhead" Bradley and Simon "Butterball" Bamford! The dead have highways. Join us at one of the intersections of these highways.  Join us on Twitter too! @HellraiserCast

We discuss Paul Kane's book Sherlock Holmes and the Servants of Hell - a mash up between Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock stories and Clive Barker's Hellraiser mythology. Victorian versions of your favourite characters and situations from the franchise mixed with brand new elements and new Cenobites! How are all these missing persons cases linked? Who is the Engineer? Will Holmes be able to solve the mystery without succumbing to Hell's forces?  Join us on Twitter: @HellraiserCast 

We discuss the otherworldly, demonic (to some) beings known as the Cenobites. What are they? What do they do? Who's your favourite? As part of this discussion we reveal the amount of time Pinhead appears on screen in all 10 movies. The results might surprise you!  We also discuss the recent news of a new Hellraiser reboot to be written by David S. Goyer.  @HellraiserCast

We continue exploring the stories from "Clive Barker's Hellraiser" - the EPIC comics from the early 1990s. This time we have stories by Nicholas Vince and Larry Wachowski, and we launch into the multi part story The Devil's Brigade. Meet a clown who entertains Hell's children. Meet a Cenobite's pet. Meet the Devil's Brigade. Come. Join us.    @HellraiserCast

We talk about the movie Quicksilver Highway, based on short stories by Stephen King and Clive Barker. Should you ever accept giant chattery teeth as a gift? What should you do if your hands start plotting against you? What is Christopher Lloyd wearing?!? Enjoy!   @HellraiserCast

We celebrate our Episode 50 by talking through some listener questions and having a general geek out about the Hellraiser world. Favourite Hellraiser movies, Clive Barker's other books and short stories, what the future of Hellraiser could be and anything else that comes to us.

Join us with a couple of drinks as we watch and talk through the 10th movie in the Hellraiser franchise - Judgment! We also discuss Peter's meticulous research (as he frantically searches IMDB) and we experience some ghostly tapping in Phil's haunted house. Enjoy!  @HellraiserCast

We talk about the brand new Hellraiser movie - Judgment! Who are the Stygian Inquisition? Who is the Preceptor? Who is Jophiel? How long can a dog hold its breath? Some of these questions will be answered.  Also includes a bonus mini interview with the new Pinhead Paul T. Taylor. Enjoy!   @HellraiserCast

An interview with the new Pinhead - Paul T. Taylor. He discusses details about the new movie Hellraiser: Judgement, what it feels like to become an instant horror icon, what his process was to become Pinhead, and much more. And no, he doesn't know when the movie is coming out.  @HellraiserCast

We're baaaack! Here it is folks - our commentary to Hellraiser: Revelations. We kick back with a bottle of sambuca to help us through and discuss the movie. Warning - we get a bit silly. We also discover during recording that Phil's new house is haunted. Enjoy!  @HellraiserCast  

We drink some drinks and talk through the controversial 8th movie in the Hellraiser series - Hellworld! We try to remain as positive as possible while trying to make sense  of the sprawling plot. We try. Pour yourself your favourite booze and join us. Doug Bradley! Lance Henriksen! Sexy nuns! Superman! @HellraiserCast

We discuss Clive Barker’s return to horror – his latest novel The Scarlet Gospels. The end of Pinhead! We also discuss recent news about the NEW Hellraiser movie, Judgement! NOTE – in a previous podcast Peter said that The Scarlet Gospels is the third ‘Book of the Art’. It’s not. It never has been. But Peter said it is because he’s an idiot. Sorry. And it's here in the podcast description because he forgot to say it in the actual podcast. Because he's a double idiot. Sorry. www.hellraiserpodcast.com @HellraiserCast

Here it is - our commentary for the wonderful Deader - Hellraiser 7. We drink some boozes while watching the movie - why not join us? We discuss the making of the movie, we express our admiration for the film while simultaneously admitting it doesn't all make perfect sense, and we get all nostalgic for VHS for a while. Enjoy! www.hellraiserpodcast.com @hellraisercast
