Sounds like some form of trash Troma would release, I'd but it

What could be worse than this ...
Now just from the title alone you can tell the film going be pants ,but the title alone is one that would also make you curious to watch it as well ..

I also like Pervert! – it's not as good as any of the Russ Meyer films with a similar setting, but it's competently made and good fun.

Hellraiser: Hellworld (2005)

Gamers playing an internet role playing game based on the Hellraiser franchise find their lives endangered after being invited to a rave, the host of which intends to show them the truth behind the Cenobite mythos.

The eighth and final film in the Hellraiser franchise starring the excellent Doug Bradley as the ultra-cool Pinhead, leader of a Cenobite legion shat out of the depths of hell.

Many see this as the nadir of all things Hellraiser but i don't dislike it like most do. In fact i rather enjoy it. Last night was my latest viewing of it and whilst it is probably the weakest entry it's still more than watchable. Director Rick Bota came in for a lot of stick for the film but credit where it's due at least they tried something different as they have been doing from the fourth film onwards.

Certainly the Cenobites are on the periphery and many of the gory kills in the film don't involve them, but lead actor Lance Henriksen as the deadly host of the Hellworld party is always worth watching and holds the attention throughout. Movie fans will also note that the films two other leads Katheryn Winnick and Henry Cavill have gone onto build fine careers in the Emmy award winning Vikings and in Cavill's case playing Superman in the DC Universe.

At no point would i ever suggest the film isn't flawed because it is. Much of the hows and whys of the Hellworld party don't bare thinking about. Maybe it's because the aforementioned stars can clearly act and hold together a clunky but pacy script, i really don't know, yet i always enjoy the film and as far as straight to dvd films go, then this really ain't too bad.

I haven't seen any of the sequels after Bloodline, I have the Bloodline/Inferno/Hellseeker/Hellworld bluray from America so I have no excuse really.

Revelations is the worst.

Bloodline is the only one after the first two that I don't mind too much.
