HELLRAISER: ORIGINS
 
2012 - A grand pitch. A ritual to resurrect.
​
Hellraiser: Origins is Paul Gerrard’s brutal reimagining of the Hellraiser mythos — a ground-up reboot forged in flesh, bone, and belief. More than concept art, it became a full-blown vision: a haunting teaser created to help reboot the franchise.

Paul designed a new form for Pinhead — ancient, regal, a biomechanical god — and served as Production Designer on the shoot. Directed by Mike Le Han and captured on the then-new Alexa 4:3 with anamorphic lenses, the teaser brought Gerrard’s hell to life in motion.
 
“We created it to pitch a rebirth — to bring Hellraiser back with reverence and fire.”

Loved by fans. Backed by the press. Feared by the gatekeepers.
This was the beginning.
