Few actors have as big of a following as Henry Cavill. Be it because of his time as Superman or the impact that he left as Geralt of Rivia, the actor is one of the most beloved and successful celebrities in recent years. However, this much acclaim and influence do not come easily.
Before he became the icon that he is today, Cavill played many smaller roles over the years. Be it side characters or smaller-budget films, it is only natural that he had to build his way to the very front of the big screen. However, one of his initial projects is one of his worst to date.
Henry Cavil and Horror
Henry Cavillis no stranger to failed movies, having unfortunately seen a couple in the past few years. However, there is one film that certainly takes the cake as one of the worst films that he has ever been a part of. Early into his career as an actor, he starred in 2005’sHellraiser: Hellworld.
In this, the actor played the role of Mike, who was also a s*x addict. The film continues the story of theHellraiserfranchise, marking the final chapter in a decades-long series until its reboot in 2022. The film followed a new concept, following the story of a group of people who become addicted to the Hellraiser game and end up falling prey to it.

Although fans cannot help but look back and fawn at a young Cavill, the film has been looked at as a stain in his professional life, even though it was one of the first films that he starred in.
Henry Cavill’s Worst Film to Date
There is no denying thatHellraiser: Hellworldhad a lot of potential to be a success. The film was following up on the success of a two-decade-long franchise, had an excellent cast, and the premise was certainly something interesting. However, it ended up failing the execution in the worst way possible.
Despite all it had going for it, the film has become one of the worst-rated films in Henry Cavill’s career. Possessing a 0% critics rating and 22% audience rating onRotten Tomatoes,there is no denying that the film severely disappointed its viewers. Many criticisms have been brought up, ranging from its dialogue to its acting, writing, and even production as a whole.
