Featured review
Excellent work of art
I´m very proud to be the first to comment on this film. Clive Barker is a true genius of horror art and all ready as a teenager he had the passion. Some of his unique ideas are shown in this great work of art where he transforms his apartment to something, I don´t know what. I think Salome and the Forbidden should be judged as one and the same film, so this is what my review is about. They are both excellent movies. There is a scene where a man is skinned by demons/angels - a very Barkeresque theme as we know but who had even thought about that before? It is supposedly very liberating to be skinned - I don´t know I wouldn´t try it. I cannot even stand the thought of giving blood. I heard he sent in this idea to a film studio where Clive wrote: "It ends with the sublime and wonderful moment where the main character is skinned alive." They rejected it and wrote back: "What is sublime and wonderful about being skinned alive?" Watch also out for Doug Bradley "pinhead" dancing around naked with a giant erection apparently dressed up like some kind of monster. There are many prequels to "Hellraiser" in these movies.
