Interesting facts

Hellraiser: Revelations is a 2011 American horror film written by Gary J. Tunnicliffe and directed by Víctor Garcia. It is the ninth film in the Hellraiser film series. It follows the fates of Steven Craven and Nico Bradley, two friends who discover a puzzle box that opens a gateway to a realm inhabited by sadomasochistic monsters known as the Cenobites. The film stars Steven Brand, Nick Eversman, Tracey Fairaway and Stephan Smith Collins.

Production

Facing the expiration of their rights to the Hellraiser franchise, The Weinstein Company, while still apparently working on the long announced remake of the original film, decided to rush an eighth sequel into production; essentially a cinematic ashcan copy. The film was announced in August 2010.

Doug Bradley, who portrayed the character Pinhead in the previous Hellraiser films, did not return as Pinhead. Bradley was quoted as saying:

I have been approached just in this last week (w/b 16 August) regarding a proposed new Hellraiser film. This is not the 'remake' which has been endlessly discussed for the last three years: with the working title Hellraiser: Revelations, it will be the ninth film in the series.

Instead, Pinhead was played by Stephan Smith Collins. Images of Pinhead from the film were leaked, but the film's director Víctor Garcia said they did not convey how Pinhead would look in the film.

The film was shot over the course of three weeks in Los Angeles for Dimension Films.
