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. Trivia ~ It took six hours to place Doug Bradley into the Pinhead makeup. ~ 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. ~ Many viewers have commented about the poor quality of the FX at the end of the movie. Clive Barker has explained that, due to a very limited budget, there was no money left to have the FX done professionally after the primary filming. Instead, Barker and a "Greek guy" animated these scenes by hand over a single weekend. Barker has also commented that he thinks the FX turned out very well considering the amount of alcohol the two consumed that weekend. ~ The scene where Frank is being spun around upside-down covered in blood was a camera test and the very first shot of the film. Afterwards, Sean Chapman (Frank) couldn't help from vomiting.
