Half human- half salamander...
It reminds me of an axolotl

Ha, I had many reasons for that.

Oh man. This might be my favorite monster in the entire movie after Chatterer. Wish we could have seen more stuff like this in the franchise.

I guess SM demons were more popular xD

Doesn't it kind of look like something?
Relevant analysis of the scene from the movie:

So, he represents a dick or a baby?

Yeah, the analysis of the scene (and the literature, I'm not sure, I haven't read it) and the script by Clive Barker basically breaks the Engineer down to a drippy hanging dick monster.
That's not to say this is the true Engineer, which I think of as some kind of avatar of Leviathan. The closest I've seen to my idea is the weird, almost elevator, device that transforms Dr. Channard into a cenobite and the worm head-screw that directly links him into Leviathan. It's not so much a character, but a kind of living contraption.
It is the part of Leviathan that analyzes humans and creates cenobites.

This could be an interesting concept, as Pinheads nails are inserted by worm-like appendages similar to those Doctor gets after getting dickworm plugged into his head. Maybe engineers actually engineer new cenobites. After all they were unusully interested in Kirsty, 'perhaps we prefer you', maybe she had the potential to be cenobified, unlike Frank.

Whoa! That's right. Pinhead's "pins", more like nails, have giant maggots coiling their tips in Hellraiser III suggesting that every pin is tipped with the power and will of Leviathan. He is connected through a grid of worms interacting with the labyrinth of Leviathan. He's not just a hell priest cenobite, he's the strong arm and avatar of the Leviathan labyrinth itself.
Just a theory though^^

Could he so easily rebel then?

No, in the book Engineer is a totally different character, in fact, he takes Pinhead's (whose design, in turn, is present in one of the minion-cenobites, likely a female) role as the leader cenobite. he does not appear for most of the book though, only being mentioned, and appearing towards the end. He is a weird guy with a glowing head. I don't remember more about his description though.

I amended my first post. But I'm sure it's still really arguable. I haven't read the books though. All of my ideas are based on the movies.
With the new film though, facts, analysis, andΒ theories (me)Β will be challenged and reaffirmed.

P.S. the new film is interesting but not great.

Is it better than other sequels?

In truth, I haven't watched it yet. But, some reviewers say this marks an upturn in the franchise,Β Although it takes some literary material and "adapts" it for the screen (some say poorly), it manages to produce elements that fans will like. In addition, this is the first (outside of the shitty previous one just to keep the license) that represents Pinhead with a new actor, not our beloved Doug Bradley.
I heard it's worth watching and descent but not exactly what the ravenous fans want. Let's watch it and discuss it later. I'm kinda curious of your opinion.

Interesting. Based on this picture I can't help but imagine an entire cenobite-style ecosystem.

Huh, interesting idea.

Those hind limbs look pretty weak though.

Maybe they stick to the walls like gecko's

Wouldnβt wanna find this thing hanging from my ceiling, grosses me out a bit! Love your style too.

I wouldn't mind it hanging down in my room, I already got weird things hanging here. XD As long as it didn't try to eat me. XD

Always been curious why it was presented like this in the film. If I remember correctly, in the novella The Engineer was a female Cenobite that was their leader. I do remember Pinhead had a brief appearance in the book, and was presented totally differently from the way he wound up onscreen. In fact, the way Pinhead is described suggests being either male or female.
π: 0 β©: 1
are you sure that Engineer was female? I read the book last year and as I remember he was referred to as a male.Β You are right about pinhead though.

I could be wrong. I don't recall for certain. I remember a scene with a female cenobite sitting on a pile of of bodies or skulls, and she was naked and covered in blood. I thought she was referred to as the engineer.

I think the engineer was some weird guy with a glowing head that only appeared towards the end.Β

You know, that sounds correct. I haven't read it in a while, so I easily could be wrong. I do seem to recall that guy though, now you mention it.

Awesome ^^ I Remember This Thing In The Movie

Very nice! This creature was always interesting, with its odd appearance and that bizarre name. Definitely leaves you wondering about its purpose and what it actually does.Β Β

Haha, you should have drawn the walls and the eerie dark hall, but terrific nonetheless! A fine illustration of its hideous, fleshy mass! I always wondered just what the hell it engineered.

Sounds like Y'olgolnac, only forming as an abomination in the endless imprisoning halls of brick and mortar. The strange bricks building our reality and the mortar we sacrifice to.

I wanted to keep it in concept art style. Maybe will paint him in the more detailed picture some day.Β
