— thestopbutton.com — This week on An Alan Smithee Podcast, the great W.C. Fields makes a grand return and Leonardo... DiCaprio does some dopey navel gazing.

Without the dumb connection to the previous films–if it had just been the adventures of Anton Yelchin’s Young Kyle Reese–it might have been fine. Nichol’s direction isn’t anything spectacular ...

— thestopbutton.com — Hellraiser III is one of the first “horror” movies I’ve seen where they seemed concerned with action... figure tie-ins, with the Cenobites having gimmicks (they shoot CDs, blow fire and so on).
