Fun fact, I once looked up the Hellraiser tag on AO3 and I was startled to see more than one fic featuring Henry Cavill's character from this movie, because I didn't think there were enough fanfic writers who even knew Hellworld existed. I'm not explaining why I was looking up horror movie fandom tags on AO3.

The video store near my house "Mike & Ted's Excellent Video Adventures" went out of business my senior year of high school. They sold their stock for like 25 cents a piece. I got so many obscure horror movies because everyone else went for the regular movies, games, and new stuff. Anyway, I got the entire Hellraiser franchise for 2 dollars

36:41 the extras discussion, so, I have a favourite dancing extra of my own, in Blade 2. There’s a scene in a nightclub, and then at some point Blade leaves the dance floor and is walking up a flight of stairs, and there’s an extra at the bottom of the stairs who’s dancing in a manner I can only describe as “driving an invisible car (including gear changes)”, and it just tickles the hell out of me, especially knowing there’s probably no music playing. Your man’s just vibing while Wesley Snipes does his thing, I love it, good on you Dancing Extra

You're right, Chelsea. This IS what we like.

Hellworld holds a special place in my heart like Stay Alive and Black Christmas (2006) because it was always randomly on one of the big premium networks and became a background/comfort movie. It feels like trying to go to sleep knowing I have school tomorrow after an afternoon of playing Gamecube. It feels homey.

Thank you so much for saying this! I have had so many horror movie dudebros call me a fake horror fan because I have a soft spot for both Stay Alive and Black Christmas (2006) because as a teenager, one of the premium channels my household had had those movies for free on demand and I watched them over and over to feed my horror movie needs.

“The Hellbound Heart” is such a quick and fun read. It’s also remarkable how close the original film sticks to it. It’s also a great gateway drug into Clive Barker’s writing style in general. I’ve had a few people over the years ask me where to start with Clive Barker and I always recommend “The Hellbound Heart.” After that, his “Books of Blood” short story collections are amazing, and really show off the extent of his imagination.

I hereby petition for a Paranormal Pool Party-style Hellraiser podcast series, please! Loved this episode!

A couple years ago my friend and I watched all of the Hellraiser movies to prepare for the 2022 film and it was a miserable experience. Thank you for covering Hellworld because it makes that experience a little more worth it.

24:40 I always refer to it as 'LaMarchand's Box'. From my understanding of words, 'Lament configuration' is just a setting that it has. When you put the box into that configuration, it opens the door. It's also a hella cool name.

James and Chelsea are probably the best KZreadrs that talk about bad movies, because they do try to be positive no matter what, which is always nice in the toxic cesspool that is this platform.

An entire East West Bowl with all the names inspired by horror characters would be. absolutely. HYSTERICAL! James saying “Lamont Configuration” had me belly laughing!!! 😂

I've long felt like I'm the only person who genuinely likes this movie 🤣 The actual 'Hellworld' video game concept is weakly-presented, but I think the movie tells a strong story that's pretty entertaining and clever. Yes the cenobites act like generic slasher villains, but (until the last scene) that makes a lot of sense in the context of the movie when you find out what's really happening. Lance Henriksen is so good in it too. I've encountered a lot of people baffled by the 'surviving' characters seeing his image at the end, but I've always seen that as establishing that the whole 'saved by the ghost friend' bit didn't really happen and that the 'surviving' characters are merely imagining their escape in a drug-induced haze. It's by far my favorite Hellraiser entry from movies 5-10.

Thank you Chelsea and James for acknowledging your dedicated podcast following we may be small compared to the kill count audience but i get so much out of every podcast they are gems for our horror community discourse ❤️

I am excited. I usually listen to these on spotify but I NEEDED to watch this one. I emailed about Darkness Falls ages ago and hearing it get mentioned once in the past got me so stoked

The stupid stuff is my favorite. I think Cry/Wolf was my first episode of the podcast after subscribing and still one of my favorites. I went and watched the movie just to get the most out of it and it was so funny to hear you guys talk about it. So please keep reviewing bad, ridiculous, or stupid horror movies. They make for some awesome listening.

Yes yes yes! Just started and I'm so excited for this episode!

So happy to hear you say bad movies need to exist! I love Mandy and Hereditary but I can't watch movies like that every day. Sometimes it's just fun to wanna watch Lance Henriksen earn a paycheck.

Ahhh my favourite time of the week....Deadmeat podcast, the bestest💖

I forced myself through all the Hellraiser sequels a few years ago and I remember fast forwarding a lot when I got to this one.

THIS IS SUCH A FUN EPISODE!

I really don’t get the whole people complaining about Pinhead being out of character in part 3 though. It’s established in the storyline that he’s been split into 2 separate entities : 1 good 1 bad , and that he no longer has to abide by the cenobite code, so it makes sense that he would be more evil and a little different than the previous iteration of the character.

I've seen all the Hellraisers except for Judgement. I gave up after the one that came before it. When you guys said the Lamont configuration, I immediately thought of the bad guy from Jackie Chan Adventures and died from the Canadian brother joke 😂

Poor Things was based on a book of the same name by Alisdair Gray actually! Originally published in 1992

Both James and Chelsea going on a tangent before going on about the movie was great. I love that these films exist cause personally they opened me up to horror and exploring beyond what everyone else sees in horror other than the horror movies that everyone knows

I had an idea for a Dead Meat video game. A 1 to 2 player Dead Rising style game where you play as James and Chelsea and the people you have to save are all the members of the Dead Meat team, and Josh is your contact on the radio watching the cameras. It could be called Meat of the Dead.
