Hellraiser: Bloodline

Hellraiser: Bloodline (1996) is the fourth entry in the Hellraiser franchise — a horror-sci-fi hybrid you can watch online on iFILM. The story spans three centuries and three bloodlines: an 18th-century French toy-maker who builds the puzzle box without knowing what it unlocks, his descendants in the present, and a scientist trapped aboard a space station in 2127.

Doug Bradley returns as Pinhead, hunting each generation of the Merchant family. Bruce Ramsay plays multiple roles across the timelines, and Valentina Vargas is the demon Angelique, summoned long before Pinhead ever entered the picture. The structure is unusual for the franchise — more of a generational saga than a single haunted-house story.

Director Kevin Yagher left the project before the final cut was locked, and the studio released the film under the Alan Smithee pseudonym. It was the last Hellraiser movie to get a theatrical run before the series moved to direct-to-video. Stream Hellraiser: Bloodline (1996) online on iFILM.
