Hellraiser
Directed by Clive Barker
A puzzle box reveals a realm of sadistic monsters led by a being named Pinhead, who torture the depraved man who unlocks it. Escaping Pinhead's wrath, what remains of Frank hides out in his attic, until a chance encounter leads him to enlist his brother's wife Julia, with whom he had a passionate affair, to lure victims home so Frank can feed off their blood. Clive Barker's essential 80s classic offered audiences weary of slashers a thrilling new alternative: a sexually-charged horror-fantasy with a villain more terrifying"”and goth"”than Freddy or Jason. Contains violence and gore.

I love pinhead are u kidding me
The visuals and sound are excellent but the villains are slow as hell. Facepalm every time they let the protagonist get away.
A classic
A rather unique film. A small number of questionable narrative choices, good film overall, if only because little else can rival its extreme gore. Watched and enjoyed but probably won't watch again.
Five red skulls but a bitch ain't one
