Watching it now is hard to do 30 years later. As a 13 year old seeing this movie in the theater in 1987 was amazing. It was such a fantastic flick for it's time. Most horror movies were Friday the 13th style or just a straight slasher film. This had real hellish/erie feel to it without the cutting and stabbing and quick shots. The Cenobites come on the screen and scare the crap out of you..................it was awesome.

Back in the early 90's ex-wife and I along with our 1 year old baby were going to try to head into Boston to a book signing Clive Barker was having. We ran late because of traffic and it was raining and cold as hell. We got there and as we pulled up he was getting into his limo to leave to airport. My ex asked if we could get a quick signature from somebody in his party. He poked his head inside the car next thing I know we are all invited into the limo. He is tells us he needs to run but has an extra second. He talks with us for a few minutes and signs a book of his art that we had. He was just the nicest guy in the world. I will always be a huge fan of Barker for that day and Hellraiser will always be my number 1 horror movie. Nightbreed is also one of my favorites of all time.
