While many regard it as an incoherent entry to the series, Hellraiser: Bloodline is quite the entertaining little gem. On March 8, 2017, this installment turned 21.

In addition to creating neat masks and exhibiting skills as an auto mechanic, he seemed to have a decent grasp of …

I may be slightly biased, but some birthdays tend to be a little more legendary than others. Today, September 7, 2016, is our favorite Cenobite Doug Bradley’s 62nd birthday! Let’s look at the life of the man who has made a difference in the lives of us horror fiends for …
