Damn I'm glad I know Clive Barker hates the name Pinhead. I knew the nickname before I saw the movies and didn't think much of it, but after I saw the movies I couldn't help but think the name sounded so demeaning to such an iconic and boss character. Hell Priest sounds so much more badass. I want to try making it a habit to call him by that title now.
