That would have been interesting. (I've actually never seen the movies past the first...read The Hellbound Heart and love the comics, though. Face is best Cenobite.)

The comics have generally been superb, much better than anything outside the first two movies.

If you haven't seen "Hellbound: Hellraiser 2" I do recommend it as it continues the story of Kirsty (and Julia) , gives an origin to Pinhead, explains a little more about Leviathan and Hell (and coins the term outlined in the above story that "it is not hands that call, but desire"), and also lets us see what happens when someone more obsessively crazy than the Cenobites gets involved in their world and a REALLY disturbing revelation about Chatterer.

Oh, and it also has an AMAZING music score.

Thanks...it sounds good...I'll be sure to check it out.

Julia's monologue to Dr. Channard is a thing of beauty.

My favourite track remains the demented carnival music of "Hall of Mirrors"

And now I've watched it (would have watched it earlier, but wanted to rewatch the first, first)...yeah, that was a good movie. Knowing that there was going to be a 'revelation about Chatterer', I figured out what it was going to be as soon as the Female died, and was certain when Butterball got it, which dulled the effect a bit, but still..
