Hellraiser Fail. Clive Barker, creator of Hellraiser had this to say about the proposed new design of Pinhead: “The whole point about Pinhead is that he is geometrically severe. Very measured and the energy of the character comes out of the fact that you have surgical precision which is part of a much larger, sadistic, maybe masochistic, design. By turning the bloodless cuts or scarifications into bloody, irregular gashes removes the point of what made the character interesting in the first place.” whilst I wasnt exactly rapturous of the make up guy’s efforts, i think he deserves some credit for doing SOMETHING and trying to get the ball (aka franchise) rolling… click on the pic to see the original site of test shots and the design’s philosophy. Sometime soon I intend to post some Hellraiser reviews on ClockworkShorts.com: ive just finished watching all 8 of the bloody things, and it wasnt for fun i can assure you.
