Agreed.

Ask yourself: what made the cenobites scary? They weren't just you run-of-the-mill horror monsters that stalked and killed.

I know I'm probably going to regret asking this; but what da heil is a cenobite? The monsters/angels/demons/sadomasochistic explorers from another dimension that inhabit the canon of Hellraiser's many novels, movies, comics, etc. I haven't really seen any of the Hellraiser series, but the cenobites look like something I should add to the "AVOID AT ALL COSTS" list.

The first and second films are the only ones of any consequence. But the comic series and the novella, The Hellbound Heart, are fucking AMAZING
