Because of the iconography of Pinhead, this often gets lumped in with the other horror films of its era. But I was NOT prepared for how dark, brutal, & creatively disturbing this is. Exploding with terrifically terrifying imagination, every creature, monster, & visual effect is seeping with gritty perfection. While the rules of the box & the demons are a little under-explained, the critique of Hollywood love is surprising & welcome.
