"An ongoing debate in the film series is whether the realm accessed by the Lament Configuration is intended to be the Christian version of Hell, or simply a generic dimension of endless pain and suffering."

just a regular one of those. y'know. normal dimension of endless pain and suffering

@Felthry it is a series i know very little about except that there's a puzzle box you can solve to open a portal to a dimension of endless pain and suffering

@Felthry @monorail

The "puzzlebox", in the Hellraiser series, is a golden rubic's cube looking thing that conforms to other-worldly geometry, and can be unlocked to determined hands, which opens a portal to a BDSM-ish hell where the tortured and tormented are treated as their own puzzles of flesh. The demons of this realm are called Cenobites, and they interpret the opening of the puzzlebox as being summoned to take the unlocker back with them. Most folks are obviously not thrilled with that idea, but in the concept of the filmology, many very much do think that they want it...
