Holy [BLEEP], they got [BLEEP]ing Peaches to do [BLEEP] the Pain Away for the Hellraiser game. Most opportunistic promotional crossovers leave me cold (or annoyed) but I have to admit, this one, to borrow the words of PC Gamer hardware writer (and Peaches fan) Jess Kinghorn, is legit a banger. Originally released in 2000, Fuck the Pain Away was Peaches’ big hit, and it’s been used in numerous movies and TV shows in the years since. But what makes it work so well here is that this remix and video doesn’t come off as forced or awkwardly shoehorned in: This is pretty much (warning, NSFW) what Peaches would do anyway.
The new Fuck the Pain Away video for Hellraiser: Revival is also extraordinarily NSFW—so much so that it’s not embeddable here. You have to go watch it on YouTube.
