What a heartfelt, savage review this is!
I didn't even know Jamie Clayton was a trans woman, but I don't see how that makes any difference here anyhow. Granted, it can be a bit off-putting if a fact like that is made to look as a selling point, but I'm not sure it deserves that much anger directed at Bloody Disgusting. I mean, if the folks love it, then why not just be happy that someone else is happy?

I can't get over how in this incarnation, these plebs are allowed to throw the box around like a hot potato and not take responsibility for fucking with it. This has happened before (ala Hellraiser 2) but the rules and methodology from that 1 instance shouldn't have been applied to the entire cast here as the circumstances were completely different, and based on a ruleset which had little wiggle room for negotiaion.

(Another exmaple would be the bargain to hand over Frank in H1, but even then the cenobites renegged, not like in this one) - 0/5

I don't know if you're aware, but Clive Barker, who literally invented everything Hellraiser, is one of the producers of this new film. He also wrote the story for Hellraiser II and served as an executive producer for the project. He was involved in the original franchise until Bloodline. The point being that whatever was happening to the "hot potato" may have had the approval of the original mastermind. If it makes sense to Clive Barker, it should make sense to us.
