Hellraiser
Introduced by Depot's Marketing Manager Bob Prosser
After tinkering with a box he bought while abroad, sexual deviant Frank inadvertently opens a portal to hell populated by fetish-demons, led by the terrifying Pinhead.
When Frank's brother and his wife move into his house, a skeletal Frank appears to his sister-in-law and asks her to supply him with corpses for his regeneration.
'Utterly bizarre and entirely ridiculous - and yet effective, an imaginative guignol festival, like the goriest of soap operas, in which one wrong move opens a portal to hell' - Peter Bradshaw, Guardian
