Cenobite, First
Its clothes are sewn into its flesh and it had "hooks that transfixed the flaps of its eyes and were wed, by an intricate system of chains passed through flesh and bone alike, to similar hooks through the lower lip." It also has "a row of tiny bells, depending from the scraggy flesh of its neck." It appeared to Kirsty in the hospital room after she solved the Box. It accepted Kirsty's deal, agreeing that it might not tear her soul apart if she led it to Frank.

Cenobite, Second
"Its voice... was light and breathy -- the voice of an excited girl. Every inch of its head had been tattooed with an intricate grid, and at every intersection of horizontal and vertical axes a jeweled pin driven through to the bone. Its tongue was similarly decorated."

Cenobite, Third
"Its features were so heavily scarified -- the wounds nurtured until they ballooned -- that its eyes were invisible and its words corrupted by the disfigurement of its mouth."

Cenobite, Fourth
She first appeared dressed in a hooded robe. After Frank's senses were overloaded, she greeted him sitting on a pile of rotting human heads. She "was gray yet gleaming, her lips bloody, her legs parted so that the elaborate scarification of her pubis was displayed." Presumably, she gave Frank a unique sexual experience.

::SIGH::
I love Clive.

And the Hellraiser/HellBound Heart writings were my first real exposure to this type of visceral writing.

My first exposure to Clive was a short story entitled "Down Satan." If you've never read it, you must. I have the file. Shall I send it?

I'm trying to remember what I wrote about reading and watching Hellraiser... I think it amounted to it was the only movie that truly scared me and excited me at the same time.

Yup, I'm a freak ;)

Freak number 2 here. Same reaction.
I still have the first two movies on VHS in a boxed set. May get pulled out for Halloween viewing. ::grins::

Hmmmm...I'm undecided on Halloween viewing...for now I'm torn between Hellraiser, Nosferatu (the original), The hunchback of notre dame (silent), and the Wicker man.

I may just have to have a movie marathon this weekend.

::packs bags::

That's it. Coming to your house for movie marathon!
(I think we're gonna do Hellraiser and whatever handful of vampire films I excavate first. Gotta do Coppola's Dracula at least!)

::sings:: If lovin' Clive is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

Seriously, I had some sort of religious experience when I saw 'Hellraiser,' and it was compounded, oddly enough, by 'Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth.'
