A reconstruction of Hellraiser: Bloodline is being made

I am currently starting the preliminary work on rebuilding Hellraiser 4 to what it was originally intended. But there are some need-to-knows that I...well...need to know lol. First and foremost, I need to know if you (Fans of the series or just this film) want the scenes that were never shot to be done like this or just with pictures and text like other fan reconstructions such as Crow II: The Second Coming.

Secondly, all I have to go by is the script and the workprint as my template (I'm mostly eying the script for reference for this edit) and I need to know EXACTLY what the director, Kevin Yagher, intended.

The scene I reconstructed is a rushed job (For me anyways lol) and does not represent what the final outcome will be:

The Insane: Think like me or I'll kill you!

The Wicked: Think like me or I'll demonize you!

ABSOLUTELY!

That is a great idea. I don't know why everyone is so down on this film; I feel that it shows a hell of a lot of imagination and does well with what it has to work with. I'd LOVE to see a reconstructed film closer to what the original was SUPPOSED to be.

The only thing is that in my very lowly and wretched opinion I feel that since this is a Horror film, it really DOES need to flow as well as possible, I personally do not think that stills and title cards (a la 'METROPOLIS') would really fit here. I think it would REALLY detract from the mood and pacing and take us right out of the film.

If it was some kind of real art classic or something where that kind of thing would fit, that would be great; but, I really think here that pacing and flow should be a LOT more important.

Good idea though!
