It is, isn't it? I didn't actually believe that it was a thing at first.

God, imagine having the power to end the earth as you know it and assume the role of a new god usurping both the devils in hell and whatever remains in heaven
Then losing it all because you learn you had an incest baby when you fucked your daughter. That's literally it. Nothing else happened but that. He's just so big a fucking loser that it was enough to break his psyche's highground.

>He's just so big a fucking loser that it was enough to break his psyche's highground.
It's Pinhead. He's always been a loser behind all that power and the stoic act.

JUST LOOK AT THOSE COSMIC MUSCLES

But still, all that power wasted on a dumbass.

i like book pinhead more than movie pinhead. At least in the book, we know he is a conniving fucking loser who trys to take over hell, wins and gets fucked by lucifer who destroys hell by doing sandman lucifer "i quit" and flying off

I've never read the book, so I wouldn't know much about him there.

Bump.

Why turn him super evil ? The heroic
self sacrifice and turn good thing in the second film was great

Most things involving him don't tend to use his Hellraiser 2 characterization much, if at all.

I mean, basically every movie after 32ignores him being good.

I think he does end up shrinking himself somewhat to interact with Earth properly however.

Actually, how good is Hellbound Heart? I've heard it brought up here and there, but don't think I've ever heard anyone make a quality comparison between it and the movie.

Well, this post was actually referring to The Scarlet Gospels, a different book with a Pinhead based more on the film one, more specifically the Unbound version from Hellraiser III.

Ah, never heard of that one. That's actually really interesting.

I definitely need to catch up on my horror literature.

He was the lesser evil/default hero in a few of them like Deader (the real villain was the necromancing descendant of Lemarchand) and Judgment (the real villain was the insane angel and her pet serial killer).

I enjoy milk leviathan. A perfect metaphor for the cenobites and devils in general: its always someone you know. Someone normal and happy who loves their neighbors and enjoys almost all parts of their lives. But those few lonely moments the become real and find hell. Only a few freaks are like Pinhead, entirely fucked from the start.

Judgement was actually pretty interesting. I know there's a fair amount of division over it, but it was a pretty neat take on the universe. Even if it did kinda shoehorn in God and Heaven into things.

I also really enjoy how he acts in general. You know there's something severely wrong about everything this 'milk man' is doing, from the way he talks, to the fact that his smile is always present and never once breaks, to even his eyes appearing dead and all-too focused whenever he speaks.

It really drives home how even in a normally comforting human shape, Leviathan is FAR too alien to really make sense of.

I wonder if the monsters have any unspoken agreements to interfere if it looks like a sizable chunk of humanity is going to vaporise themselves.
Pennywise: "Yo Freddy! Dead people don't have kids or be afraid."
Freddy "Oh FFS, they are doing that again?"

They probably generally agree on some things, like not swarming human settlements and devouring everything completely. At least, not unless you do it discreetly and you invite others over.

But this probably only applies to the ones who have a proper mind to them. Something like Kayako or that curse from Nanashi No Game are just going to destroy everything in their path without a care.

Threadly reminder to not talk about Judy
