Anyone notice any similarities with the Borg and the Cenobites from the Hellraiser series??? They all wear black and are bald with pale white skin, yet have slight variations in term of their costumes, and Pinhead's voice sounds altered just like the Borg's. I feel that Hellraiser and the Cenobites influenced the design of the Borg. Anyone notice this???

Re: Anyone notice any similarities with the Borg and the….

Great point there are indeed similarities although the Cenobites in Hellraiser seem to have what look like tools of of torture incorporated in their bodies and they themselves are a product of torture the Borg on the other hand are integrated(assimilated)into the Collective and have tools of technology implanted in their bodies but I agree when I first saw Hellraiser the similarities struck me as well since both seemed deprived of a will of their own and and serve The Collective in the case of the Borg and the box(or Leviathan for those who have seen Hellraiser II) in case of the Cenobites.

I haven't watched Hellraiser in years.

RIP Gene Wilder. One of the funniest people of all time. RIP Matt Roberts. You were great.

BRING THEM TO HEAL!

If I were you I wouldn't even try number two it's even more gore,but I think it is quite imaginative and explores the boundaries of really F#cked up stories.

Re: Anyone notice any similarities with the Borg and the….

I love a lot of the horror stuff. I remember seeing Candyman years ago.

Hellraiser was quite good it was quite good with the make-up and SFX(certainly when you realise that most SFX were done without CGI) That part in the second movie when they are in "Hell" is quite imaginative and pretty gruesome(That psychiatrist that gets his brain scrambled quite literally comes to mind).Plus the first two movies breathe an air of European gothic.

Re: Anyone notice any similarities with the Borg and the….

Yeah. I haven't seen them in quite a while. Need a refresher course.

The "assimilation" of that doctor into the lead cenobite in Hellbound is also like BOBW in some ways.

Re: Anyone notice any similarities with the Borg and the….

yeah that "egg-slicer" and "brain scrambler" is a nice touch.
