Description: BRAND NEW IN LONGBOX (CD) SEALED w/HYPE STICKER - Reasonable offers or buy it now. The only defect can be seen in picture three (3) which shows a slight 1/4" dent in the side of the box. This longbox is impossible to find and this one is most likely the only one left in existence. The production run on this was very small due to the poor reception of the movie at the time of its release. It's since gone on to become a cult classic in the series. The film features a heavy metal-rock soundtrack. Initially, the score was also meant to be rock music, but this went over poorly in test screenings. Randy Miller was brought in to compose a more traditional, orchestral score within three weeks. Given a restricted budget, the Mosfilm State Orchestra and Choir in Russia was chosen to perform the score. The Russian orchestra, unaccustomed to Hollywood demands, felt they did not have enough time to rehearse, but Miller said they eventually welcomed the challenge.[14] Barker directed the Motörhead video for "Hellraiser", featuring Lemmy and Pinhead playing a game of cards and varied clips of the film.[29]Motörhead – "Hellraiser"Ten Inch Men – "Go with Me"Material Issue – "What Girls Want"Electric Love Hogs – "I Feel Like Steve"Armored Saint – "Hanging Judge"Triumph – "Troublemaker"KMFDM – "Ooh La La"Tin Machine – "Baby Universal"Soup Dragons – "Divine Thing"House of Lords – "Down, Down, Down"Motörhead – "Hell on Earth"Chainsaw Kittens – "Waltzing with a Jaguar" Armored Saint, who contributed to the song "Hanging Judge", make a brief appearance in the film.

A longbox is a form of exterior paper packaging for CDs in widespread use in the 1980s and early 1990s in North America. When compact discs first began to appear in the retail stores, the longbox packaging served a transitional purpose, allowing shops to file new compact discs in the same record store bins originally used for vinyl. Longboxes were 12″ tall, and capable of containing two separate discs when necessary. Most longboxes were full color, with details about the compact disc on the back, and artwork that was frequently taken from the original square album cover art, reworked for the new shape and size. Longboxes began to fade from popularity as the CDs themselves became more colorful (labels initially printed CDs with a plain black-on-silver appearance). Longboxes were also considered environmentally wasteful and were expensive to produce. Most original longboxes were discarded upon purchase, and they have since become desirable amongst music collectors. A compact disc is worth more if it is accompanied by its original longbox that remains intact, sealed from new and morever , unflattened, which is oft how they end up.
