This is a great horror movie to say the least. Though it has been out shined by its sequel, Hellbound: Hellraiser II, which is an amazing look into its mythos. Anyone lucky enough to get a hold of Hellbound's soundtrack knows the beauty of Christopher Young's music. I digress. This DVD would be nice to see on Blu-ray because there aren't too many great extras on this 20th Anniversary edition. Like I said, it is good for true fans only. I wish there were more tidbits in it about the mythos of the Cenobites and the Labyrinth. Guess I'll have to wait and read The Scarlet Gospels when it comes out. There's suppose to be a lot of background information in it and it's suppose to be the end of Pinhead/ Xipe Totec. If you have a Blu-ray or HDDVD player, wait until this baby comes out in one of those formats. You'll just have to buy it again later...it'll probably have more extras at that time too.
What's great about it: It's the Original
What's not so great: It's not Hellbound: Hellraiser II
