Pumpkinhead: Ashes to Ashes (2006)
How to tell this movie was made in 2006: It was made for SyFy. It was shot in Bucharest, Romania. It has two titles, Pumpkinhead: Ashes to Ashes and Pumpkinhead: Blood Feud, but is not called Pumpkinhead IV. It pretty much follows the original film and just subverts it slightly by having Lance Henriksen’s mummified body […]
Candyman 3: Day of the Dead (1999)
Many years ago, the agency I worked at had the account for the Pittsburgh Public Theater and was doing an ad for August Wilson’s King Hedley II. Tony Todd was in the lead and the team working on it couldn’t figure out who should do the voice-over for the commercial. I pushed really hard for them […]
Candyman: Farewell to the Flesh (1995)
Bill Condon wrote Strange Invaders and Strange Behavior before this movie, which didn’t fare as well with the public and critics as the original movie. Maybe the movie Bernard Rose wanted to make would have been better. Virginia Madsen told Horror News Network, “They originally wanted us to do Candyman 2, but they didn’t like Bernie’s idea for […]
Hellraiser: Judgment (2018)

He was tryinf to make an independent film and then wanted to make a true Hellraiser as he knew how bad the past films had […]
Hellraiser: Revelations (2011)
Oh man, Dimension Films. Their rights to make Hellraiser movies were running out, so they had to make this movie within weeks or risk losing the rights to the film series. Due to the rushed production, Doug Bradley decided not to return as PInhead and Stephan Smith Collins took on the physical role and Fred […]
Hellraiser: Hellworld (2005)
Based on a short story called “Dark Can’t Breathe” by Joel Soisson — check out our interview with him here — this Rick Bota-directed sequel is the first to have Lance Henriksen in it (he was originally going to play Frank in the first movie, but chose Near Dark instead*) and the last to have Doug […]
Hellraiser: Deader (2005)
Peter Briggs had written an unmade script for Freddy vs. Jason that was a hit with the studio, so he was hired to write this and he chose to ignore those two films above and just concentrate on the first four movies. But oh yeah, this was a Dimension Film. And you may have heard […]
