Hellraiser (1987) A man finds he is given more than he bargains for when he solves the puzzle of the Lament Configuration - a doorway to hell. But his ex-lover has found a way of bringing him back, and his niece, Kirsty Lawrence, finds herself bargaining with the Cenobites, angels to some, demons to others, whose greatest pleasure is the greatest pain.

Movie Quote(s):
  • Frank Cotton: Come here, damn you, I want to touch you.
  • Frank Cotton: I thought I'd gone to the limits. I hadn't. The Cenobites gave me an experience beyond limits... pain and pleasure, indivisible.
  • Kirsty Cotton: Who are you? Lead Cenobite: Explorers in the further regions of experience. Demons to some. Angels to others.
  • Lead Cenobite: The box. You opened it. We came.
  • Lead Cenobite: No tears, please. It's a waste of good suffering.
Movie Trivia:
  • It took six hours to apply the prosthetic Cenobite makeup on Doug Bradley.
  • Doug Bradley's character's name wasn't "Pinhead"; this was a fan nickname that began circulating after the release of the film. The script originally identified his character as 'The First Cenobite'. In the sequel films, 'Pinhead' became the character's "official" name, and Bradley is credited as "Pinhead" after that point.
  • The budget of this movie was $1,000,000. It earned about $20,000,000. It was the directing debut of Clive Barker, who had made only two short films before this.
  • The film is based on the novella "The Hellbound Heart" written by Clive Barker.
  • The film's working title was "Sadomasochists From Beyond The Grave".
