Trivia: In the opening scene, you can see that Jay is incredibly nervous while on the roller-coaster - this is actually a real reaction, as actor Jay Baruchel is deathly afraid of roller-coasters in real life.

Jason X (2001)
Trivia: Famed movie director David Cronenberg has a cameo as Wimmer, a higher-up at the Crystal Lake Research Facility at the start of the film. (He's the man who gives the speech about Jason's regenerative capabilities and is later speared through the back.) He agreed to appear in the film as a favor to the director, who had previously worked with him as a special effects artist on his movie "eXistenZ."

Hellbound: Hellraiser II (1988)
Trivia: As originally intended, Julia was meant to become the new primary antagonist of the series after this film, with Pinhead and the other cenobites remaining dead. However, the Pinhead character became incredibly popular, and Julia's actress Clare Higgins decided she didn't want to do another sequel. So Pinhead was resurrected in the following movie and became the central figure of the series.

Hellbound: Hellraiser II (1988)
Trivia: The film was originally meant to co-star Andrew Robinson as Larry Cotton, who would be found in hell and would accompany Kirsty and Tiffany throughout the remainder of the movie. However, Robinson turned down the chance to reprise his role for unknown reasons. This forced last-minute script rewrites as a great deal of the film had to be restructured due to his absence.

Hellraiser: Inferno (2000)
Trivia: Like several other entries in the series, this was originally not meant to be a "Hellraiser" film. The studio felt the script would be a good fit for the series, so it was rewritten to add in the cenobites and puzzle box.

Hellraiser (1987)
Trivia: The film was originally meant to be set in England, but this was changed during production when the studio decided it should take place in the US. In order to help sell this, a number of the English cast members were redubbed with American accents. However, as the decision was made after part of the film had already been shot, there are a few lines alluding to it being set in England still left in the finished movie. (They evidently couldn't be reshot or cut around).

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Trivia: "Gremlins" star Zach Galligan has a "blink and you'll miss it" cameo as one of the dead bodies in the nightclub after the massacre. He's only on-screen for a second, but if you know where to look, you can see him. (He's impaled with a pool stick.) Evidently the director asked him to make a cameo as they had worked together before on the "Waxwork" films, and Galligan accepted.
