The 1987 British supernatural horror flick Hellraiser remains one of the most loved of the era, but following decades of sub-par sequels, the franchise is now getting a reboot via Hulu, which critics claim finally lives up to the original. Hellraiser (2022) has finally landed and is available now.

Reimagining Clive Barker’s uniquely disturbing feature debut, which was based on his novel The Hellbound Heart, David Bruckner (The Night House) takes over the director's chair for this 21st century version. Follow our guide on how to watch Hellraiser online from anywhere across the globe.

As with the original, the story centres around a mysterious puzzle box, with the reboot seeing the cursed ancient artefact being stolen by early-20s addict Riley McKendry, played by Odessa A'zion. 

After solving the puzzle while under the influence of drugs, she accidentally sets free the Cenobites - a group of sadistic supernatural beings from another dimension, along with their leader - the Hell Priest - who unleash havoc and terror on everyone they come in contact with.

Taking the role of the Pinhead-style Hell Priest is Jamie Clayton (Sense8 and The L Word: Generation Q’s), while the cast also includes Brandon Flynn (13 Reasons Why) and Goran Visnjic (ER).

Tune in around the globe and watch Hellraiser online no matter where you are with our guide to streaming the movie below. Not going to be in the country? You can use a VPN from abroad to watch Hellraiser as if you were at home.
