Fornicus, Lord of Bondage and Pain, also known as Hell Lord, is a minor antagonist of the 2012 horror/comedy film The Cabin in the Woods. He is one of the many Monsters created by the Ancient Ones for the Organization, in order to punish and kill the young.
It is unknown how he was captured, nor how he was re-contained at the end of the ritual.
In addition, Fornicus was among the monsters portrayed in the Universal Orlando Attraction Halloween Horror Nights 23 in 2013.
Physical description[]
Fornicus is a tall, muscular man. He is completely bald and appears to have no body hair. His eyes are a deep blue-gray. He is distinguished by the large circular sawtooth fragments embedded in various parts of his head, from which blood drips. He wears a latex vest that covers his entire body. His arms are bare and wrapped in barbed wire. He is always seen holding his signature puzzle ball, which he uses to summon him from the basement of the Shack.
History[]
Fornicus, along with two minions, was created by the Ancients on behalf of the Organization's American branch to punish and kill the youths chosen by the organization. His summoning method is through a puzzle similar to Lemarchad's Box, also known as the Lament Configuration.
Fornicus's first appearance was on a board where all members of the organization bet to see which monster would be summoned for the ritual to appease the beings known as "Ancients." Gary Sitterson would vote for "Hell Lord," hoping that he would be summoned to kill the five teenagers. Curt Vaughan, one of the five sacrificed, almost managed to summon him, but Dana Polk interrupted him to read the diary of "Pattience Buckner,[1]" who would end up being chosen for the ritual.
After surviving all of the Buckner family's attacks and being rescued by Marty Mikalski from Matthew Buckner's[2] attack, Marty asked him to enter a tomb connected to a secret elevator, which the organization used to transport monsters to the surface. Upon entering, Marty and Dana saw several monsters (including Fornicus) enclosed in different transparent cubes that moved on horizontal and vertical rails.
Unlike most monsters, Fornicus remained silent, holding a spherical puzzle orb, similar to the one Curt almost completed. With this, Dana would realize that all the objects in the basement would serve to summon any of the monsters locked in the cubic prisons, so Dana would begin to furiously hit the wall of the cube, while the lord of hell would remain watching her in silence, while his cubic prisons move away, to show all the monsters within the custody of the organization.
During the purge of the system, Fornicus would be one of the 8 monsters released during each wave, being released in the second, his last appearance would be in a scene in which the cameras show different areas where the employees of the organization are tortured by different monsters, in a camera it is shown as Fornicus, along with his henchmen are about to torture an employee who is immobilized face down with chains,
Inspiration[]
Fornicus is a direct reference to the Cenobites from the Hellraiser series, specifically Pinhead. The reason Fornicus has saws embedded in his head instead of nails could be to avoid copyright. Other things like his clothing, the chains they used to immobilize the organization's employee, or the minions are also direct references to the Cenobites and the Hellraiser series.
Trivia[]
- Assuming Fornicus has the same abilities and characteristics as the Cenobites, it would mean that Fornicus and his minions are the most powerful monsters under the roof of the organization.
