Hellbound: "Picking up a mere two hours after Hellraiser left off, the sequel finds young Kirsty (Laurence) in a mental hospital in the aftermath of the horrific events she witnessed at the first film's climax. Her case comes to the attention of psychiatrist Dr. Channard (Cranham), whose rational exterior masks a darker side. Soon the doctor and patient, along with Laurence's evil stepmother, Julia (Higgins)--brought back from the dead by Dr. Channard --and autistic patient Tiffany (Boorman), find themselves in hell for more adventures with those nasty ghouls, the Cenobites."--Http://www.clivebarker.com/html/visions/bib/movie/hellraiser2/hell2.htm.
