Clive Barker's feature directing debut graphically depicts the tale of a man and wife who move into an old house and discover a hideous creature - the man's half-brother, who is also the woman's former lover - hiding upstairs. Having lost his earthly body to a trio of S&M demons, the Cenobites, he is brought back into existence by a drop of blood on the floor. He soon forces his former mistress to bring him his necessary human sacrifices to complete his body... but the Cenobites won't be happy about this.
This is the film that brought us the icon Pinhead, he is also in my Sig.
I love this movie, thoughts?

Clive Barker is brilliant. Great short story and truly great film to follow it. I love the visual terror in this film. Not to mention, the sequel was equally as amazing as this was.

If by bad you mean evil. I'd say Frank. He cheated with his brothers wife, and tries to rape/kill his niece. While Pinhead has rules, and only kills those who open the box.
