Don't like itDon't get me wrong. The makeup design and implementation is good, but it doesn't look like a Cenobite.
And I don't mean that in a "It doesn't look like the original movies did!" garbage that so many people get mired in nostalgia spew.
No, this is about the design.
This looks like the work of a two-bit slasher. The scarification is slap-dash and the pins are driven in all willy-nilly.
The Order of the Gash...The Cenobites. They're not butchers. They're not randomly violent. There is method in everything they do. Pain is an artform to them. Pain is a ritual to them. They execute their disfigurement meticulously like a watchmaker with a jewelers file.
In Barker's original novella, "The Hellbound Heart," which the movie franchise is based on, the flesh of the cenobites is described as being ritualistically flayed, perforated, filleted, and dusted down with ash.
This makeup, while very well executed, doesn't reflect that.
This looks like the work of a rabid animal, not an artist exploring the limitations of the nerve endings.
