Lord of Illusions (1995)
Nightbreed (1990)
Hellraiser (1987)


Have to admit I enjoyed the excessively gory, stark raving bonkers sequel, Hellbound (1988) , even more than the original.

Ratings on a scale of * to *****:

1: Lord of Illusions (1995) *****
2: Hellraiser (1987) ****½
3: Nightbreed (1990) ***

Own 3

I'd likely give Lord of Illusions the title of most underrated horror film in recent memory.
