I`ve just watched II and III for the first time myself. I think the second one is better than the first and the third is a step down but remains enjoyable.
I`m not sure about picking up Bloodline though, Alan Smithee getting a sole directing credit is hardly reassuring.
What do you guys think?

It's the worst of the films to be released theatrically, but it's perfectly watchable, if you don't mind watching a film which ends with Pinhead in space! It's probably one of the highpoints of Smithee's career. Get it for £4 or less.
Inferno is basically a big load of nothing and Craig Sheffer blows (Flying Virus is awesome though). I haven't seen any of the other DTV sequels, but I'm not too bothered.
The first is one of my favourite horror movies and IMO none of the sequels really come close.

I've only seen the first four but enjoyed them. Bloodline wasn't as bad as I thought it would be...but it's still bad yet enjoyable. Hellbound is my favourite with the first right up there with it. Hell on Earth was pretty good too. Cenobites that shoot CDs are gold.

The first of this series is one of my top 5 horror films ever. So gory and awesome--only issue is some of Clive Barker's direction. Gotta love that creepy Chatterer.
The second film is almost as good as the first and even bloodier. I have yet to see the third film, but I have seen the part where Pinhead walks through the church and makes the stained glass windows explode and crucifies himself. It's also got the escalator zombie from Dawn of the Dead as the priest.

After yesterday, I own all of the Hellraiser films except for Bloodline & Deader. I picked up Inferno, Hellseeker, & Hellworld. I need to get myself motivated to watch 'em sometime soon. My movie watching has been down drastically as of late.

I watched Bloodline earlier, it`s not as bad as I thought it would be but it doesn`t reach it`s full potential, you can tell by watching it that it`s been fucked about by the studio. Joe Chappelle (Halloween 6) did the re-shoot`s apparently, which explains the flashy blue lighting and the bucket loads of fake looking blood. Next it`s Inferno...  |

I finally saw Bloodline on Encore the other night--pretty damme disgusting. Those bloodline twins are sick, as is the part where they conjoin that one guy between them towards the climax. In general the movie's pretty sick and has that classic Hellraiser feel, even though it's in a bulky, bland future.
