I like Clive Barker. I wasn't a huge fan of Hellraiser, but I've read a lot of his books and I think he's a genius. That said, I liked this movie. It was gruesome, disturbing, unconventional, and will haunt me for a while. Here comes the spoiler. ******* My only complaint is that some idiot at Prime decided to give away the ending by putting a still of Mary holding Simon's skin on the info page. Way to give it away.
