Director David Bruckner has hold of the puzzle box this time. He’s the man behind 2020’s incredibly creepy The Night House, alongside screenwriters Ben Collins, Luke Piotrowski, and executive producer David S. Goyer (Dark City, Batman Begins). Together, they’ve produced an adaptation closer to the spirit of Barker’s terrifying source material.

Odessa A’zion (Let’s Scare Julie, Ghosts) stars as Riley, a girl in the grip of drug addiction who stumbles upon the ancient puzzle box that, once solved, opens a portal to a realm of indivisible pleasure and pain and from which the mutilated Cenobites emerge.

Doug Bradley played the role until 2005, but now Sense8’s Jamie Clayton is stepping into the Hell Priest’s robes. The rest of the group of sadistic, extra-dimensional beings includes Yinka Olorunnife as Weeper and Jason Liles as Chatterer. Adam Faison, Goran Višnjić (ER, The Boys), and Succession’s Hiam Abbass will also feature.

Can I watch Hellraiser online in Canada?

There’s no indication that the new Cenobites will be coming to Canada. In most instances, Hulu Originals like Hellraiser 2022 make their way to the Disney Plus ‘Star’ platform a few months after their debut outside the US – like FX’s Little Demon – but there’s been no news yet that Hellraiser will be added to Disney’s VOD platorm. If that changes, we’ll be sure to let you know here.

Of course, if you’re travelling in another country when the film debuts, you can still connect to your streaming service by downloading a VPN. That will allow you to watch Hellraiser (2022) online no matter where you are.

Can I watch Hellraiser online in the UK?

The answer just might tear your soul apart, but…no. You can't. As with Canada, there’s no word that Hellraiser will get an international home on Disney Plus in the UK, now, or in the next few months.

However, if you're an American and find yourself away in the UK and unable to access Hulu due to geo-blocking restrictions, by purchasing a VPN you can watch all your favorite films and TV shows online, no matter where in the world you are.
