Trivia:

It took six hours to place Doug Bradley into the Pinhead makeup.
The budget of this movie was $1,000,000. It earned about $20,000,000. It was the directing debut of Barker, who made only two short films before.
Doug Bradley was originally offered a choice of roles between one of the mattress movers and the Lead Cenobite. He originally thought it important that, as a new film actor, the audience should be see his face, and nearly turned down the Lead Cenobite role.
Doug Bradley's characters name wasn't "Pinhead". He was just named "lead cenobite", but was given the name shortly after the film opened.
