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.

Now THIS is how you do dark fantasy! Immediately adding to my buy list
Amazing and meaningful. An entertaining bloody good time with a heartfelt message beneath. Great acting, great effects, great cinematography. Just great, great, great.
This cut is even better than the theatrical version. Fun movie from the mind of Clive Barker.
5 skulls is an accurate rating for Nightbreed. You can’t go wrong with this one. A++
Great film from Clive Barker, with a shockingly great performance by David Cronenberg as the main villain. Guy should act more! Having seen how messed up Barker's stuff can get, I'm not as into the Tim Burton-y vibe of this one, but I can see how others might love it.
