3/07: Showing a panoramic display of visuals only to have an awesome collapse, Hellbound: Hellraiser II started off slowly before the pace was picked up as Clare Higgins reprised her role, pushing the sequel to a new territory.

As soon as the doctor received his chance to become a cenobite, the movie started to fall apart due to the pileup of nonsense that I had been sucked into. That's when I stopped caring and began to look at my watch as often as possible.

What bothered me was the doctor's head being controlled by some kind of tentacle. Because of it, I was prevented from seeing the big picture. Therefore, the movie felt like a mind game, annoying me to no end.

Meanwhile, it would've been nice to see Pinhead more often. Ironically, he hadn't had the chance to shine during the first two pictures despite being featured as centerpiece of the franchise. What's with this mute girl? What did she have to do with the plot? She had to be one of the most useless characters I'd seen. Get rid of her.

All in all, I wished that Hellbound: Hellraiser II didn't fall apart.

7/10: I've realized how stupid Hellbound: Hellraiser II is.

It starts off okay. Then, I've lost interest, wanting the movie to end already.

All in all, Hellbound: Hellraiser II sucks.
