the film that gave birth to the seminal horror villians Pinhead and the cenobites, this is a stylised 80s film revolving around a chinese puzzle box that it would be best advised not to try and solve. the sound track and fashion make it easily dateable, but the grusome special effects still hold up well and aren't for the faint hearted. the rebirth of the bad guy frank is particually realistic and his death by being pulled apart by fish hooks will turn you off going fishing forever. probably the best horror film of its decade and spawned several sequals which inevitably descend in quality the further from the original they get.

I don't think that I want to see this film! It might be good to try and watch it for the filmy greatness but then again, I don't really like the gore that much.
I can not remember which film it is, but the lead actor gets his ankles broken by his kidnapper. Gross. Really freaked me out and I think I walked really tenderly for 2 days, feeling the non-existent pain of the actor I think!
