    Though not as bloody as the short story upon which it is based it is still a great monster movie.Despite Clive Barker having disowned it shortly after it's release in '87.Gotta love Fangoria. I have only seen it on VHS and look forward to the dvd version.

    One of my all time fav horror movies its got some crazy hard core evil stuff like when Rawhead Baptizes a servent in his urine so this movie is not for the faint of heart its not in every movie you see an 8 foot monster hold a baptismal on the front lawn LOL.

    Man I've had this movie in my #1 spot of my queue since I joined over a year and 1/2 ago, what gives? Where is it? I love this freakin movie by Clive Barker! when I was a kid my siblings and I would alwys watch it and our favorite part is when Rex relieves himself on a priest, goodtimes. Well if I ever get this I'll watch it and return it promptly 4 the rest of u who r waiting 2 reexperience it or discover 4 yerselves. we'll c if that happens since it sounds like it setting on erone's queue but noone is recievin it, 2 bad really... or someone has recieved it and not returning it greedy bugger spoilin t 4 all of us.
