Splendid by Julia Quinn
A frothy Regency romp with wit, charm, and… a jackass hero?
Author:Mr Mustard
Hellraiser: Hellworld (2005)
An unexpected surprise, with mediocre charm, early-2000s tech nostalgia, and a dash of Superman.
Hellraiser: Deader (2005)
A Weinstein cash grab masquerading as Hellraiser. Boring, un-scary, and light on Pinhead.
Masquerade (1988)
A delightfully trashy ’80s thriller with flat plots, flatter abs, and fabulous melodrama.
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
Reviewing an Austen classic? Risky business. But we adore it, so all’s fair in love and literature… right?
Hellraiser: Hellseeker (2002)
Here is where behind-the-scenes drama outshines on-screen horror: a franchise’s death knell.
Miss Butterworth and the Mad Baron by Julia Quinn and Violet Charles
A curious, half-baked romp through Gothic parody for Bridgerton die-hards.
Hellraiser: Inferno (2000)
Barred from the project, Clive Barker’s vision is replaced by untalented hacks looking to cash in.
Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child of Fire (2023)
A slow-motion snoozefest that makes you wish for the sweet release of a Death Star blast.
Hellraiser: Bloodline (1996)
Space, time, and studio execs collide in a demonic jigsaw puzzle. Pinhead’s here, but coherence isn’t.
