"Hellraiser" was one of the films that stopped the descent, at least for a while.
Too bad the rest of the decade kinda sucked for the genre, except for the 1988 release of "Hellraiser II," which was as equally impressive as that of its predecessor.

The violence committed by the demons (called cenobites) in Hellraiser is usually praised by the lowbrow fans of the series.
Hellraiser is incredible for it's originality in story line; leaving behind the god/satan area of evil and just going straight an other worldly group of creatures that teach that there is no difference between pleasure and pain- there is only sensation.
Produced in 1987, Hellraiser was not only a much welcomed relief to the horror genre, but it was extremely original.

The first Hellraiser movie was a low budget affair, but unlike other low budget movies, it boasted an accomplished and incredibly powerful score from Christopher Young (who also scored "Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2" and the brilliant "Trick or Treat").
Young was also asked to score the sequel (Hellbound: Hellraiser 2) and managed to surpass his work for the first movie.
