Hellraiser


(1987) ****

Directed by Clive barker, its my favorite of all time! I even had a crush on Pinhead in high school, yup! Its just a puzzle box!
Its about a bitch of a wife Julia, her husband and his daughter Kirsty, inheriting a house abandoned by uncle Frank. While having daydreams about Julia's fling with uncle Frank upstairs, the husband comes running to her with a bleeding wound, spilling it all over the floor. The blood seeps through the floor, bringing uncle Frank back to life. Frank makes Julia bring victims back to the house to fully restore him before the demons(cenobites) find out that he has escaped their grasp.These are three of the cenobites: Female cenobite, Pinhead(their leader), and Butterball.
Frank is getting better...that's some damn good juice!
This is the means to summon the cenobites, known as The Puzzle Box, Lament Configuration, and Lemarchand's Box.
"Jesus wept..."

You're such a badass Abduscias! Did you get those posters when you worked at Showcase? I've seen the first three of these and then maybe one or two of the direct to video ones. One day I'll go through them all in order.

Hell yeah! Way to kick it old school, love this film. When it came out there was nothing else like it.

The room decorations are sweet - I would've been so stoked if you were my daughter.

I give Clive Barker a lot of grief (which he deserves) but this is one quality movie, and he directed it.

The shot of your Hellraiser corner is an awesome bonus. Is that current or from an old bedroom?

that must look super-beautiful when the morning sun catches the posters just so.
