Nightbreed: The Director's Cut
Directed by Clive Barker
A wrongly-accused man seeks refuge in an underground kingdom of grotesque monsters in Clive Barker's freaky and frightening fan favorite. Young Aaron is tormented by visions of monstrous, graveyard-dwelling creatures. But his creepy therapist (director David Cronenberg) offers little solace. When he's framed for serial slayings in the area, he heads for Midian, a place where undead monsters known as the "Nightbreed" live. Barker's follow-up to HELLRAISER developed a cult following on video, and its recent restoration proves its importance in horror cinema.

Very creative!
Coolest group of monsters ever!
One of my all time favorite films, though this is the first time seeing the Director’s Cut. It’s just as phenomenal as the theatrical version. Still remains a favorite. I loved the extended scenes and the differences towards the end.
Always a fun watch. Decker’s mask is iconic. The various creatures of Midian are creative and keep you watching the background characters as well as the main story.
Nightbreed is great in any edition. I enjoyed the director's cut but still prefer the resurrection of Dr. Decker ending from the theatrical cut. That was such a cool shock ending in the theater that I still remember. Must watch!
