I voted Frankenstein partly because it's a classic character, but mainly because at the end of one of the Hellraiser movies, the first I think, the villain looks at the camera and says "Jesus wept" for no real reason. I thought it was retarded and I refused to watch any of the others as a result.

That was one part of the film that I can't be fond of, to save my life. As if to add to the suckitude, the guy then explodes ... not "gets eviscerated by the hooks that impale his flesh." Nope. Explodes.

Other than that, pretty awesome film.

And I voted for Pinhead, because I was thinking of how this fight would actually play out, then it occurred to me this morning in the shower, "Frankenstein has no soul." So, I wasted a vote. Fuck.
