For the movie, when it came to designing the cenobites one in particular stood out as the natural leader to the makeup artists and film crew naturally, the one with all the pins sticking out of his head. ![]() In The Hellbound Heart, the cenobites appear as a group, with the one who became known as Pinhead only briefly mentioned.

Other notable changes from the book to the movie include the Engineer, who appears only in the film, Julia using a hammer in the movie instead of a knife, and the winged bone demon in Hellraiser is certainly not in the book. Clive Barker's iconic masterpiece The Hellbound Heart, the novella adapted into the film Hellraiser, unleashed a new mythology of horror, brilliantly conceived and born of the darkest imagination. This changes how her character reacts to things in the movie, as a concerned daughter looking after her father rather than as a friend. Another difference is that Kirsty's character in the book is a friend of Larry's, rather than being his daughter from another marriage. ![]()

In 2007, when he was already terminally ill, Hari Kunzru interviewed him. Ballard’s wife died suddenly of pneumonia, leaving him to bring up their three children alone. I also wrote a few sentences or parts of sentence of my own. Part of this review also went through an additional process, as I asked an AI to attempt to integrate & summarize some of these fragments into a coherent whole – but I don’t think it did very well on that front. This review is more or less a random collage of fragments that appealed to me: fragments of reviews found on Goodreads, of the book’s preface by William Burroughs, of Hari Kunzru’s introduction, of a 2019 text by Rob Doyle in The Irish Times, and quotes from Ballard & the book itself. ![]() ![]() ![]() The more that Americans are reminded by Atkinson and other supreme practitioners of the historians’ craft that their nation was not made by flimsy people, the less likely it is to be flimsy.” -George F.
