This is another in Bethany's continuing horror education. It's not my favorite Halloween series but I do think it's a classic.
Kirsty (Ashley Laurence) is just trying to live her life but she becomes worried after her dad (Andrew Robinson) expresses concern about his new wife, Julia (Claire Higgins). See, unbeknownst to the rest of the family, Julia has been luring random dudes to the house and sacrificing them to her brother-in-law, Frank (Sean Chapman), who fucked around with an evil puzzle box and got torn apart by Cenobites. Frank and Julia then came up with a plan to rebuild his body by using unwilling donors and they might have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for that meddling Kirsty.
All anybody remembers about this movie is Pinhead. And he's in it for five minutes, tops. The rest of the movie is just gore and body horror and that one horrifying scorpion-tailed demon thing that I legit forgot about. This most recent viewing did show me that every single dude in this film is garbage, just an awful person, and deserved whatever happened to them. That's my 2019 hot take on this 30+ year old movie. Currently streaming on Prime.
