Hellraiser (1987) Review and Discussion

Better late than never — it’s the Mother’s Day episode of Booze Bros & BS.

On this episode we’re diving into Clive Barker’s 1987 cult classic *Hellraiser*. Behind the scenes trivia, the sex scene that nearly got an X rating (the MPAA was literally counting thrusts), and the haunting what-if of Coil’s lost soundtrack. We also theorize on what the Cenobites actually are — angels, demons, elementals? Are they evil, or just operating on a morality we can’t comprehend?

And on this Mother’s Day, Mike shares a heartfelt tribute to his mom, who passed in April — and to every mother who ever held it all together.
