Yeah it’s an actual masterpiece. One of my favorites of all time.

To you and u/ChuckBS, how old were you when you watched it? I posit that these classics are only appreciated by people who saw them as a kid.

Over a decade ago as a young adult. Definitely not a kid, and am certain that it isn’t only people that grew up in the 80s that agree. Clive Barker is brilliant. I mean, the scene where Frank is being rebuilt is top 5 for practical effects in a horror film, it’s so good!!

That was such a neat scene. I love practical effects.
