Another reboot, remake or re-something is imagined for the Hellraiser series, reports
Shock Til You Drop. The Weinstein Company have hired two new screenwriters, Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton, to adapt a new big screen series for the classic
horror franchise. Production will begin shortly planned for an early 2009 release.
Plot Summary: First released in 1987, Hellraiser centers on a man who finds he is given more than he bargains for when he solves the puzzle of the Lament Configuration – a doorway to hell. But his ex-lover has found a way of bringing him back, and his niece, Kirsty Lawrence, finds herself bargaining with the Cenobites, angels to some, demons to others, whose greatest pleasure is the greatest pain.
