 | Arrow Announces a UK exclusive for October and boy is it a big one... Detail Inside |
Arrow breaks my heart by announcing this UK only title. Haven't felt this sting since The Texas Chainsaw 2 release. Lionsgate needs to get off their ass and do this trilogy justice here in the US or Sub license them. Anyway here it is HELLRAISER: THE SCARLET BOX LIMITED EDITION TRILOGY BLU-RAY
The first three instalments of Clive Barker’s terrifying horror franchise in stunning new 2K restorations

Release Date: 26th October 2015
Region: B
IT WILL TEAR YOUR SOUL APART
Stephen King was once quoted as saying: “I have seen the future of horror... his name is Clive Barker.” That future became reality when, in 1987, Barker unleashed his directorial debut Hellraiser – launching a hit franchise and creating an instant horror icon in the formidable figure of Pinhead.
Barker’s original Hellraiser, based on his novella The Hellbound Heart, follows Kirsty Cotton (Ashley Laurence) as she comes head-to-head with the Cenobites – demonic beings from another realm who are intent on reclaiming the soul of her deviant Uncle Frank.
Picking up immediately after the events of the original Hellraiser, Hellbound: Hellraiser II finds Kirsty detained at a psychiatric institute and under the care of Phillip Channard, a doctor who abuses his position to realise his own dark aims. In Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth, a reporter investigating a mysterious death at a nightclub finds herself in the way of Pinhead and the Cenobites, who plan to bring their horrifying world into our own.
Coming at a time when the genre was degenerating into self-parody, Hellraiser offered a fiercely unique vision that approached its horrors with a far greater degree of seriousness than many of its contemporaries.. Along with its sequels, the Barker-produced Hellbound and Hell on Earth, Arrow Video is proud to present some of the most terrifyingly original films in the history of horror in brand new 2K transfers.
