What happens

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth is a 1992 American supernatural horror film and the third installment in the Hellraiser film series. It was directed by Anthony Hickox and stars Terry Farrell, Paula Marshall, Kevin Bernhardt, and Doug Bradley. Ashley Laurence, who starred in the previous two films, reprises her role as Kirsty Cotton in a cameo appearance. Following the events of Hellbound: Hellraiser II (1988), in which the demon Pinhead (Bradley) is imprisoned in a statue, he resurrects himself by absorbing the life force of unlucky humans. After convincing a power hungry club owner, J.P. Monroe (Bernhardt), to feed him souls to convert into new Cenobites, Pinhead goes on a rampage, opposed by reporter Joey Summerskill (Farrell) and the spiritual manifestation of Pinhead's good half, Captain Elliott Spencer (also Bradley). Series creator Clive Barker returned as an executive producer, though he was largely uninvolved until post-production. It was the first Hellraiser film to be shot outside the UK and released by Dimension Films. The film's reception on release was better than the previous film, and it grossed $12.5 million in the US. In 1996, it was followed by Hellraiser: Bloodline, which was the last film in the series to be theatrically released. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
