The Hellraiser Franchise

[Demdike@Cult Labs]

Once again, and this movie may be good or bad who knows? It begs the question why?

Why do movie and tv execs continually reboot and remake the same old stuff?

Of course Hellraiser is based on a classic story by novelist Clive Barker but it's not the only thing he wrote. Why not push the boat out and adapt something else? Barker's name should attract interest then if the finished product is good enough it'll be successful. Have these people never heard of Weaveworld for example?

God forbid they could even try adapting the work of other horror writers such as Richard Laymon, Shaun Hutson or even Brian Lumley. You know get away from the same old tired tropes.
