Hellraiser: Judgment
2018
Regi; Gary J. Tunnicliffe as the Auditor: A clerk in Hell who notes a person's sin before sending the person to the Assessor for judgment. The Auditor's typewriter paper is made of flesh and inked in blood; he often carries a music box that plays "Für Elise" as a comforting remnant of his human past. According to Tunnicliffe, the character is German. Not a Cenobite, he is part of the Stygian Inquisition separate from the Order of the Gash (one of Hell's many orders). There are many auditors in the Inquisition; Tunnicliffe's character shares the faction with the Assessor, the Jury, the Butcher and the Surgeon. Other members (the Bone Collectors, the Seamstress, the Sentinels, the Order of Exudation, and the Effluviam) were planned for introduction but removed for budgetary reasons. The character was influenced by Sam Lowry from Brazil (1985) and Itzhak Stern from Schindler's List (1993). The Stygian Inquisition lures their victims (candidates) to houses on earth that connect to Hell, evaluating their sins and desires to decide their fate. Occasionally, its victims are deemed more suited to the Cenobites. Time and budget contributed to Tunnicliffe playing the character, allowing him to come in before shooting to apply the make-up; prosthetics could be applied in advance, and a body double could be used as needed. He accepted acting advice from a number of sources (including Damon Carney), and Mike Leahy and script supervisor Pepper helped direct his on-screen scenes. Tunnicliffe said: "I've been acting for many years, I love the franchise and I wanted to play the character. I thought in the very worst-case scenario if I suck, then I can dub myself later!"
