Welcome to a brand new edition of our video series THE F*CKIN BLACK SHEEP, which is of course a spin-off of our b-weekly written column of the same name. If you missed it, we kicked this sucker off in December with FRIDAY THE 13TH PART VII: THE NEW BLOOD, which you guys seemed to enjoy. Now we’re taking a look at another maligned sequel – nay – a whole batch of them!

Everyone digs the first couple of HELLRAISER movies. The original is a bona fide classic, and the first sequel (while definitely inferior in my opinion) is considered a very worthy follow-up by most horror geeks. HELLRAISER III: HELL ON EARTH is no gem, but it certainly has its fans – mostly thanks to its impressive body count and the oodles of icky make-up FX on display. But what about the rest? They’re often not even thought of, let alone dissected. Well, our man Lance Vlacek hopes to change your outlook on those post-HELL ON EARTH sequels – all FIVE of them – with his latest BLACK SHEEP entry.

And these are just the Doug Bradley HELLRAISER flicks; no REVELATIONS to be found here.
