This was a rough week for the BGH: New Class and our Hellraiser live tweeting. With Evan called away for undoubtedly greener pastures, Sophie and I buckled down (with the very welcome help of some BGH friends) for one of the franchise’s most painfully bizarre entries yet. Hellraiser V: Inferno relocates to Denver, where a sleazy detective with no shortage of personal demons must solve a series of brutal murders that inexplicably link his acquaintances and loved ones with a familiar, dangerous puzzle box. What followed was a cinematic disaster, and appropriate all-out Twitter mayhem. In the beginning, there was hope:

I am at a loss for things to even tweet. This movie baffles me. "Look me in my eyes and tell me I'm lying." #TweetWithBGH

This took a very weird and unusually moralistic turn in the third act and I did not like it one bit #TweetWithBGH #NotMyHellraiser
