Hellraiser Bloodlines Screenplay

I am a casual Fan of Hellraiser 4 Bloodlines it was the FIRST and only Hellraiser movie I ever saw in theaters and coincince it was the last large commercial film of the series to be in theaters. I have this book and love it and hope to have Peter on the show to chat about it coming up.

You may well be a fan of the first two or three Hellraiser movies who found that your relationship with this fourth one was … well, what shall we say? Complicated, maybe? You may, if you were of a kindly and forgiving nature, have found the film somewhat interesting, even occasionally entertaining, but you probably also found it confusing, felt that something just wasn’t right about it. You may have noticed the director’s name—Alan Smithee—and googled it, and discovered that Alan Smithee doesn’t exist, that the name is a pseudonym sometimes applied to movies that have been significantly troubled during production and post-production by crises both financial and creative. Whilst you’ll never get to see a Director’s Cut of Hellraiser: Bloodline, you can read in this book what was supposed to be…

Only 17-year-old Charley Brewster (Ragsdale) knows Jerry’s bloodcurdling secret. When Charley can’t get anybody to believe him, he turns to TV horror host Peter Vincent (Roddy McDowall), who used to be the “Great Vampire Killer” of the movies.

Tonight on the show we have Film Maker Joe O’ Connell is on with us to talk about Rondo and Bob a documentary about Robert A. Burns, art director on the original Texas Chain Saw Massacre, who was obsessed with actor Rondo Hatton aka the Creeper. Burns was average looking but brimming with odd creativity. Hatton, who suffered from acromegaly, had a strangely unique appearance, but was a regular guy. In Rondo and Bob their two stories intersect.

Music tonight will be from films Robert Burns worked on.
