There is no actual Jewish concept equivalent to 'hell'. The word is usually translated in movies as "Geh Hinom" (the valley of Hinom, which is an ancient garbage dump in Israel).

When Cain died did he go to hell?

-----------------------Cain is part of the Hebrew scriptures and if we must determine his fate, we should do so based on Hebrew beliefs. In the first millennium BCE, Hebrew belief posited sheol, a place or state with no reward and no punishment, more a state of semi-consciousness. Even today, Jews do not have a hell. On that basis we ought to assume that Cain did not go to hell.
