| Hell Raiser Requiem | David Johnson | |
| Chris Gide and a group of his
closest friends are meeting in the back room of Demon ink tattoos and body
modification. In The shop are deranged paintings only an insane genius can
dream of and flashes of work that Chris has done. Chris and his friend start
to begin in their pre-rituals for the hangings. As they start to raise Chris
into a state of painful euphoria they can tell that something isn't right.
Chris while hang from the surgical steel hooks realizes that the high is just not the same but as the last thought goes through his mind he can fell the popping in his back. He doesn't catch on to what is happening till he gets that old feeling back, the pleasure of pain. As his friends lower him as fast as they can he realizes the blood that has pooled on the floor and as he stares into the pool of blood there is a face that is staring back at him but it is not his. Chris then passes out and his friend rush him to the hospital . once he wakes up he checks himself out not without taking a few souvenirs, he then returns to the shop and to the surprise of everyone that he is not dead. Then Chris engages in mindless self indulging conversation with others he can't help but to think about the high he got from so much pain. Chris doesn't miss a beat and starts on a guys tattoo as he is finishing up because money is finishing up as well a real crazy walks in. Chris immediately goes to the counter since he is the owner and no one wants to deals with the drama. He ask the man "what can I do for you chief" the man places down an old piece of paper with a picture of the design of a box. Then the man puts down 500 cash and the tattooing starts as he is tattooing this man then tells him how to get the pleasure he needs, the man gives him an address to an extreme body piecing shop. As Chris arrives at the address he is disappointed by the run down heap
that looks more like a cave, he enters to meet the givers of temptation.
After a mind churning chat he receives the box as he goes to reach for
his wallet they are gone. That night he dreams of chains and hooks piercing
his body in every which way and this continues night after night. Finally
one night he picks up the box and opens it his bedroom turns into a dungeon
and a familiar face enters through the shadows." Chris we have been
waiting for you." Chris is dumbfounded about the demons knowledge
of him. "Yes Chris we know all about you about your past and we know
your future" then out of nowhere hooks rip him apart "was it
good for as was me." |

| I would like to see a Hellraiser
film along the lines of another "Hell on Earth" movie if you will.
Most of people's ideas of hell on earth is living in a horrible situation,
corrupted cities, prison, or on a battlefield in the middle of a war zone...
i.e. Vietnam, Iraq or wherever... I'm going to go with a war zone as my
setting because a number of horrible things have been known to happen on
a battlefield as we know from real life as well as many good war movies
that have been made. My ideas are pretty vague but I hope you can imagine
where I'm going. My plot would be somewhat reminiscent of a cross between
Apocolypse Now and Platoon where a squad, present day, in the past or possibly
in the future, would be given a dangerous/important mission to recover some
important documents and discover some "treasure" with the Lament
Configuration in the mix. One soldier decides to examine and open the box
amidst his fellow men after a good meal and a job well done... and all hell
breaks loose.
Alternately the mission could be to capture a ranking official or a political figure who has, unknown to the squad, opened the Lament Configuration and "struck a deal" with Pinhead to take the souls of the soldiers, which he learns just prior to opening the box are coming for him/her. We could easily find a leading character or hero out of the squad to battle the forces of evil. Possibly a one man army, Rambo style, or three or more soldiers working together to end this war within a war. I'd like to see more of cenobites being created like in Hellraiser 3 and Bloodline with alot of action throughout most of the movie. I believe this could be a good breeding ground for conflict within Pinhead being that his original human self first came in contact with the Lament Configuration in a time of war. Maybe even having a decendant from his human bloodline involved would make things all the more interesting. |

| The film would tell the story
of two similar characters that inhabited two separate dimensions. The first
character would be a young woman named Jamie and the second character would
be a young man named James. These worlds would be similar to our Earth,
but different in certain aspects. The main difference in Jamie's world what
we interpret as pleasure is pain, and what we interpret pain as, is pleasure
to them. It's basically a planet of masochists. In James' world the concepts
of pleasure and pain are exactly the same as they are here.
The film would simultaneously tell the stories of both Jamie's and James' quests for the ultimate experience in pleasure. In their research Jamie and James would each discover tales of the Lament Configuration and the pleasures it promised. In Jamie's world the Configuration would be shaped like a circle, and in James' it would be shaped like a triangle. Jamie and James would set out to find it, and would each commit similar, yet different, atrocities in their quests for the Configuration. They would murder people for clues, and lose their jobs as well as the love and the respect of everyone whom they love. Eventually they would each get their hands on it and James would open the box in the regular way and end up in Hell. Jamie would open it in a way we've never completely seen before (although we saw Kirsty begin to open it this way in the first Hellraiser.) She'd unlock the doorway to Heaven. The creatures of Heaven would be beautiful, but in a creepy way. They would commit such extreme excesses of sex, gluttony and other "pleasures" that the audience would cease to find them appealing and instead become appalled by them. The remainder of the film would deal with Jamie and James' initiations into the different dimensions that the box had taken them to. James would be tortured by pain, and Jamie would be tortured by pleasure. |

| Opening shot: Wall covered
in newspaper clippings - "Mysterious deaths at Channard Institute",
"Deaders: myth or reality?", "Architect Le Merchant Found
Butchered: Family Links?", "LA Cop Found Dead in Hookers Lair"
etc. There should be one clipping to attribute to each film. Opening shot
end on unshaven man in creased shirt and tie looking over a newspaper…
…film starts with a New York detective [D'Amour] trying to track down Kirsty Cotton. He discovers that after the disappearance of her husband [Hellseeker] she had sold the box to Winters [Deader] and disappeared… However when he sees a striking similarity between the leader of a new-age box worshipping cult and Kristy's long missing stepmother he realises there may be some reality in the stories he's heard. Early on D'Amour tracks down Kirsty in Liverpool, and discovers that she is the configuration's new 'guardian'. Those who seek the box find her and she gives them it in vain hope of ridding herself of it. However the Lament Configuration always finds her again. This is taking its toll on Kirsty who has a repeating nightmare of Pinhead coming to claim her, and has 'hallucinations' of him taunting her. Now Julia [resurrected, for reasons left unknown… no good mythology should be completely neat] is after the box. Kirsty is hiding and avoiding a confrontation with her in fear it will result in her soul being claimed by Hell. D'Amour, believing he can use the box to not only send Julia back to hell, but also to free Kirsty of her bind to it, decides to seek her out and drags a reluctant Kirsty, box in tow, to where Julia and her cult is now based, the Le Merchant building [Hell on Earth / Bloodlines]. Kirsty and D'Amour enter the building only to discover that Julia has used it to allow creatures from hell through. As they traverse through the labyrinth of the building, D'Amour uses wits and knowledge of the occult to save him, Kirsty chooses to use the box. Eventually, believing she can escape at the expense of D'Amour, Kirsty betrays him, leaving him for dead. He survives however and has a final confrontation with Julia, where he sends her back to Hell and solves the puzzle of the building, closing the gateway to Hell, but not before it takes everything inside with it. Kirsty however does not make it, and the film ends with her in the attic of the house from the first film with Pinhead and his original band of Cenobites, with Frank and Julia waiting in the wings. It's her nightmare. A verse of typically poetic Pinhead prose confirms what we already know… … Kirsty is trapped in Hell… …and Pinhead at last has his prize. Fade to closing credits with box tune playing, leading into fill Christopher Young orchestration. |

| On The Next Film:
First my title: Hellraiser IX: The Call Of Leviathan I would start the movie with clips of Leviathan creating it domain - The Maze of Eternity. Starting almost like a perverse creation of Eden. After that the screen would go black and hear Pinhead say in a 'sinister bibicial way' On The 8th Day, He Created the Maze and brought forth the darkness, and it was good.' Then I would show A young boy (about 15-20) in a English boarding school sketching a rather familar box, you would hear the teacher scream. "Chanard!!!" Of course this would be the young Dr. Channard from Hellraiser: Hellbound. Fast Forward, a little showing Channard reading a book on the Life of Lemarchand. And the history of the box. The book would start showing the assembly of the box and the history. Channard starts to delve into people that had disappeared when they had the box. The Channard story would serve as a 'wraparound story' to work between each story. Each story would be the tale of how the four Cenobites from Hellraiser transformed from Humans to Hell's butchers.. Pinhead's Tale - Showing how Captain Elliott Spencer did before he became The Black Pope of Hell and how he got the box. Followed by: Butterball's Tale, Female (Cenobites) Tale, and It would end with the Dr. Channard we know from Hellbound, standing in his Obsession Room looking around. The phone rings and we hear this. "What is the patient's name, Kyle..... Cotton. I'll be there shortly." Of course, the day before Hellbound starts. He looks around the room once more, and leaves. Would like to see Clive write this one and have Gary J. Tunnicliff direct (I'm very very impressed by his Hellraiser short 'No More Souls'. |

| Flashbacks from Hellraiser
Hellseeker shoot across the screen. Kirsty lying on the bed, the cenobites
surrounding. Then a quick cut to an eye. Pops open! Deep breaths. Pull out to Kirsty. Obviously just awakening from a nightmare. She looks down at the bottom bedposts. At the very bottom of the bed right in the middle lays the Lament Configuration. Changing angle we are now looking at Kirsty from the bottom of the bed as an expression of fear comes across her face. Suddenly, chains come flying through her chest. Quick cut to Pinhead at the bottom of the bed. As the chains fly by his head he grabs them. We can see the hooks slice through the flesh of his hand. Looking at pinhead from an angle we can hear the haunting voice that speaks in riddles. Ahh Kirsty, do you believe in fairytales? If so than don't. This is not a fairytale, this is a nightmare. This is where i come out to play. Pinhead lets out an evil laugh as he yanks on the chains. Looking at Kirsty we see the chains rip the guts out of her stomach while she lets out a blistering scream. Then, quick cut to an eye. It pops open as we hear heavy breathing. Pull out to Kirsty's face. This Hellraiser would be based around Kirsty living out her hell. Such
as Inferno and Hellseeker. Of course, we wouldn't know Open on: Kirsty, walking through the corridors of the Labyrinth. We can see a
room up ahead. Light spills out from the corners. Kirsty walks There will be little hints to the climax at the end where we see how Kirsty was tortured by the cenobites. Open on, Kirsty in pinheads torture room. She is alone, and cold by the
fog from her breath. Then we see the cenobites This would be the end. We would leave off on Kirsty suffering through her hell forever. |

| Characters ---------- Cenobites: Victims: Setting A deep and dark coal mine. The mine has been in use for several decades, and is beginning to show it’s wear. It’s productivity is quickly running out, and it’s age is showing. There are many long tunnels and shafts, as well as a small railway system (for mine carts) running throughout the mine, creating a dark and claustrophobic sort of labyrinth. Plot Our five protagonists and a handful of other workers are deep within the mine putting in a couple hours of overtime after their co-workers had already went home for the night. After a mishap with some explosives, much of the dilapidated supports for the mine collapse. Everyone, exception of the protagonists, is killed in the catastrophe. The main exit is now sealed, locking the survivors inside the mine. They must now decide how to survive and escape the dark, claustrophobic tomb that they have been enshrined in. Do they simply wait where they are for help, or do they brave the further depths of the jagged, coal bathed labyrinth in hopes of finding an emergency escape route? To put a further twist on their predicament, Vladimir discovers a small puzzle box that has been shaken free from the rubble after the blast. During rest periods, he attempts to solve the puzzle, perhaps as a way to keep his mind off of things and retain his sanity…or perhaps there is an unknown, darker desire within him that motivates him to continue solving the puzzle… He solves the puzzle box, and the cenobites are released into the mines. They decide to entertain themselves with their newfound victims as they stalk them throughout the darkness. Will the miners find their escape? Or will their souls be torn apart? |

| In a heavily secluded private
school, several students seem to turn up missing. It seems that these disappearances
have been tied with the eccentric school principal Ferris McElroy. His office
bookshelves are stocked with ancient books and scribes, and his desk is
cluttered with various trick puzzles and marvelous illusions. He has always
been fascinated with the marvels of the universe. Whenever a student is
sent to his office, they are asked a riddle before he'll release them; those
who do not answer them correctly got detention. But lately detention seems
longer than it is supposed to be and one teacher, Trixie Miller is getting
suspicious.
Mr. McElroy is happy about his work; so happy he wants all of Hell to know about it. He is an artist of the flesh, the students are his canvas and his paintbrush is a scalpel. He does his work in the old nurse's room, where he performed "surgery" such as sewing mouths shut, mutilating faces, and distorting the mind. He wants to be famous in Hell, but before he can do that he needs a portfolio, a gallery of art to please his audience… The Cenobites. Ms. Miller investigated this matter, she snuck into his office and sifted through the various things on McElroy's cabinet and found a box sitting on his desk, and suddenly she saw McElroy coming out of a room and hid. He grabbed the box, and she followed him to the basement where the drugged flayed students sat at a table where they were given a mysterious puzzle box to pass around and solve, each student solving a different part. Upon solving it, the students questioned what was about to happen, and suddenly a bright, blinding light illuminated the room shining out of the crevices in the walls and the silhouette of four ghastly flawed figures appeared out of a portal-like hole in the paneling. The scent of rancid vanilla filled the room and chains fell from the roof as the distorted Cenobites arrived, Pinhead, Butterball, Chatterer and the Female Cenobite. "What calls us?" asked Pinhead. "It is I, Ferris McElroy! I have created the finest sculptures which I present to you!" McElroy shouted. "Ah, we have an artist… one that strives for Hells attention… one full of riddles… well Ferris, I have a riddle for you… What is greater than God, More evil than the devil, the poor have it, the rich need it, and if you eat it, you'll die?" asked Pinhead. "Uh, I don't know… what is it?" asked McElroy. "It is 'nothing', which is what you have proved to us." stated Pinhead "But I have worked so hard to please you." said McElroy. "It is not their flesh that pleases us, it is yours, it is you who summoned us, you must pay the toll of you're flesh for an eternity of suffering!" shouted Pinhead. And the rest is yet to be told… |

a group of people, a box, and the ones it calls. It seems connected to the

| A moment of calm washed over
him as he'd dream of the woods and the serenity of the places visited in
his memories. He even thought of the smile of his unborn child to take his
mind off the deep lacerations on his chest as the host stuck her hard knife
into him. With every carefully placed strike an intent of the foulest was
to be endured in order to change the innocence in Le Merchant to a hollow
shell.
She was indeed a sadist of the highest order. Each cut had the experience of 10,000 vicitms behind it and Angelique knew how to sculpt a new soul from it. Le Merchant was made to live on at the hand of Angelique as she crafted the flesh torn scraps of his mind into pure desire and lust for her benefit. It began almost a year later. Phillipe Le Merchant had forgotten his wife and child and began construction for a successor to the Lament Configuration.
On the roof of his small bastion he began to chant: CORPUS INFERIS EXPETERE A connection between the Lament and Elysium Boxes is made as Le Merchants mortality is revealed as no man can subdue the rage of Leviathan. The foe that is forever. The boxes destroyed Merchant and he was never seen again. Earth did quake, as a massive concrete door slams in the very depths of hell it opens up a new place. Le Merchant had not succeeded in creating a box to give himself power but rather allowed hell to be educated in the ways of the flesh by the nature of his own black soul. To open a box is a call to Hades. They answered with a promise to forever subject man to all extremes of his desire... Thus is the birth of the cenobites. The regimentation of hell requires Leviathan to create its army in the attire of its purpose. Phillipe was truly the most dammed man to have lived. |

| Hellraiser IX: The Fall | Antipax | |
| A man in Victorian London,
Merrit Whitman, finds the Lament Configuration on a gift shop and buys it,
thinking it no more than an ornate trinket.
Pretty soon, his wild restrained morals find an escape as he solves it after one night of debauchery in the slums, and is taken to see sight beyond his wildest dreams, beyond space and time, accompanied by 2 Cenobites, Nusrat (male) and Maga (undefined) . He manages to barter for his life, offering one poor innocent soul he lures into his house, and manages to strike a deal with the cenobites, to work for them and spread Leviathan's traps through the world, in any way he can. He is then initiated into the mysteries of Lemarchand's work as architect and artisan, starts his own Publishing House and begins working on patterns and designs that have secret hidden meaning in them which might lead to a way to open the Schism for those visionary enough to see through the floral motifs and the geometric shapes. He then creates a Society for the Preservation of Ancient Buildings. Lemarchand's London houses are among the first works to be taken under its wing. Of course, he is not the only one who knows about Lemarchand's work and the hidden doors that lead to Leviathan's Labyrinth of Pain. An Indian young man, called Vasuman (Born of Fire) knows of the dangers Merrit is unleashing into unsuspecting Londoners and discovers the Lament Configuration in his possession. Risking his own life, he breaks into Merrit Whitman's house and finds him prepared to fight for it. They lock into battle, each pushing for the box, each focusing their desire and their hatred for each other, until blood is pilled and amidst the confusion, the Schism is opened as Merrit claims sole ownership of the box. Maga and Nusrat appear, and Merrit demands they dispatch Vasuman. The cenobites, smiling say it was Merrit's desire which opened the box, and that they are not his puppets to command, but his masters. He is quickly taken by hook and chain, and Vasuman manages to solve the box as the Cenobites are about to turn their attentions to him. He then sets the Press on fire, and leaves for India in the next available ship, Lament Configuration in hand, which will be the place where, a few of decades later, Elliot Spencer will find his new treasure. MAGA  NUSRAT  |
