It was extremely gory, very scary and had some awesome make-up effects. Even though the first half wasn't as effective and felt like another different story, the second half and the last half hour were very effective and terrifying.

I felt like they had many plot holes, because we don't really know anything about that box, other than it brings some creatures to take you to hell. Still, it was very entertaining and very good horror movie.

It wasn't what I was expecting it to be, because I thought it would focus more on Pinhead, but it didn't. The main character was the box and the consequences it brought to who surrounded it. However, the best scenes in the movie were the ones with Pinhead and the other Cenobites.

They were so grotesque yet so different and unique, but beautifully made. Definitely one of the best movies of its genre and time.
