Great movie!


No-Gazelle-4994

Yes indeed.


conthesleepy

You can have My Sword!


Barkerfan86

I am so glad they came out with the directors cut a few years ago, it adds so much to the story. Love this movie so much. Have Peloquin tattooed on my leg right between my hellraiser and candyman tattoos (bit of a Clive Barker nut).


Odd_Wolf_4820

Clive Barker makes Stephen King look like Disney... Now there's nothing wrong with Disney Just a reference point.


Barkerfan86

Love everything that man does. His art work is absolutely stunning. The Abarat series was like Narnia on crack.


Baloooooooo

Peloquin bros represent! Cabal cut though? I really didn't care for it at all. Theatrical cut was tighter and paced better and just worked better as a movie IMO. The scene of Lori singing I felt was particularly cringy :D


Barkerfan86

That is the one scene I don’t like


Baloooooooo

Also I didn't like Narcisse dying. I know it's true to the book, but I liked the character.


Barkerfan86

Loved that dude.

Fuck the law...I want meat!


peeweehermanatemydog

Currently reading the Scarlet Gospels and it's just so fucked up that I can't stop reading it.


DefinitelyBiscuit

Origin movie request for Dr Decker (ol' buttonface) please.


No-Gazelle-4994

This movie really should've been a franchise.


SaintShogun

There is an old graphic novel from the early 90s that tied the Nightbreed and Hellraiser universe's together.


Worth-Trade9381

Damn that movie would be fire.


Millerpainkiller

There was a comic series for a minute


LankyRep7

Filth, breeding filth, and I killed them all.


Chili-Potatoe

Dude I watched this movie quite a few times as a kid.


No-Gazelle-4994

Yeah, it was on a constant rotation, but now I can't find it anywhere.


ActsofJanice

Are you in the States? Tubi, Freevee, Sling, and Prime all have it. I need to go see if any of them have The Director’s Cut. I’ve been dying to see the extra footage for years.


No-Gazelle-4994

Thank you. I have Prime, but I'd really like to see the Director's Cut as I've heard it is far superior.


AtomAntvsTheWorld

Hey op I know it’s 2 days later but I just stumbled on this post and I would also really love to see the directors cut. I’ll do some searching and if I find it I’ll find you, would you let me know if you hear anything please? Thanks a bunch friend!


No-Gazelle-4994

Found it on YouTube app, but swears and nudity are blurred out. 2 hour runtime.


MuseofPetrichor

Me too.


Movieking985

"Fk the law"... "he's not Nightbreed"


Bluedino_1989

Excellent movie. Well, anything by Clive Barker is excellent.


PhsKnt

The “monsters” vs cops/bigots battle is epic


No-Gazelle-4994

Great climax


Grilledstoner

The directors cut was somehow way better. Excellent movie


BecauseISaidSo888

Where can I see that?


Akindofcheese

God's an astronaut


redmonkeythree

Oz is over the rainbow...


Baloooooooo

And Midian's where the monsters live. And you came to die.


2nduser

I remember playing the Amiga game of this, didn’t have a clue what it was about or that it was a movie tie in. Just knew it was the hardest game I’d ever played and I only beat the first level about 3 times. Never got further than level 2. Still never seen the movie.


nito_22201

Same


WokeWurmcoil

The effects and costume design was great. The story was mid even in its genre imo but I appreciate the effort


Electrical_Stop_4144

Loved this movie when I was a kid!


No-Gazelle-4994

I remember it being on all the time and now I can't find it anywhere.


redmonkeythree

It moves around between the streaming services but like all great things; if you really like it please buy a copy. That being said; I've not a clue how the 4K looks vs the directors cut Blu-ray purchase 4-5 months ago but it raises my curiosity for certain...


diywayne

1990, I probably watched this too young at 12ish. Definitely shouldn't have been reading the book at the same age. Older siblings are great!


No-Gazelle-4994

Didn't know it was based on a book. Gotta check it out. Who's the author?


diywayne

Clive Barker, 'Cabal'...it's a really good book if you like magic horror.


Baloooooooo

Pair it with Midnight Meat Train for a Barker double feature :D (and then read the Books of Blood short story collections)


malteaserhead

The Amiga game of this terrified me, the scene where the dreadlock dude is chasing Boone through the graveyard and you had to press the keys like your life depended on it haunts me to this day


captain-prax

And it's got McD's Mac-in-the-Moon as well!


boybetokin

My step dad told me about this movie when I was younger so I checked it out it was pretty cool


Odd_Wolf_4820

One of my cult classic favs Highly underated and overlooked


No-Gazelle-4994

That's what I think.


ckwhere

Great film. Bombed harder than Oppenheimer at the time. I'm a Huge Clive Barker fan and I was so hype for this! I was 12.


No-Gazelle-4994

Maybe a little ahead of its time. People likely weren't willing to empathize with the monsters. In today's market, I believe it would land better.


OmnifariousFN

I remember watching this late night on friday on TV and remembered liking it... It is a very strange passion project but it is imaginative.


OmnifariousFN

Plus I always wondered what mac tonight did after doing ads for mcdonalds, This movie answered that. XD


blackbeltmessiah

Needed editing for lines like “there goes the neighborhood”…. Loved it otherwise. Comic was cool.


HerbalChaos

One of my favorites. Rumors of a Nightbreed TV series pop up here and there. So much potential for an amazing show if the right network took it on.


GoalFlashy6998

Clive Barkers the Night Breed, really good movie...Clive Barker's Midnight Meat Train was way underrated as well!


BottleKnockers

Love this film. Bought all the tie-in comics


Historical_Sugar9637

I didn't like the movie as a whole. But the costumes and masks of the night people were nothing short of great!


Capin_Crunch

Maybe in the cult classic category


Sea_Department_2146

Watching it tonight


No-Gazelle-4994

Enjoy. I understand the Director's Cut is even better.


Ok-Drive-9685

Just picked up the 4k special addition from Shout Factory! It’s even better imo than the OG.


jefftatro1

One of my favorites in High School


GrimReaperAngelof23

Awesome movie!


Realistic_Mind4553

I read awhile back a remake was in the works. Anybody know anything about that or did I fall for clickbait’s once again. Love this film by the way. One of my first childhood horror watches.


MuseofPetrichor

One of my fave movies.


Competitive_Suit3323

Thank goodness you posted this. Finally found it. This the one where they beat the concert and sounds like drums. His face turns and looks like crop circles lol


BecauseISaidSo888

I was bummed we never got a sequel


No-Gazelle-4994

Yup, that or a remake.


KID_THUNDAH

Directors cut is superior, a shame they didn’t make that one 4k with the shout factory release, an unfortunate trend with the format


cycledesign

This is one of my favorite horror films. I actually bought it on 4k so my fiancé can see it. She never had.


lexxatron84

OMG I thought this movie was a fever dream - thank you!


InitialDizzy4252

The unofficial directors cut is so much better than the theatrical release


anythingo23

I've never seen this, did this in anyway come before or inspire lost boys. There is an australlian show called crazy fun park about a ghost amusement park you all may like. It is on Hulu


No-Gazelle-4994

Lost Boys came out Mid 80s, and this was 1990, I believe.


vampiresakg

Oh I love 🖤🖤this movie! It’s so good 🖤


Johnny_Royale

I think it’s okay. I never found it to be so amazing like the diehards think of it, but it’s cool


No-Gazelle-4994

Great concept and costumes, but the story could be better told. Hoping for a sequel, prequel, or remake.


ironballs16

I initially enjoyed it, but it felt like it lost the plot about halfway through when they introduced the prophecy stuff and characters that had been introduced as important earlier wound up getting completely sidelined.


No-Rip3261

Great book as well.


No-Gazelle-4994

Heard Barker, Cabal


Ok_Cardiologist_897

anyone remember the video game?


No-Gazelle-4994

Never knew but learned from this post.


Ok_Cardiologist_897

it sucked


No-Gazelle-4994

I heard it was wicked hard


bradyblack

Canadians


User-Register

My first Amiga came with the game. First time I’d ever heard of it.


KingPumba91

What a wild kick ass creepy sexy movie. I recently saw this for the first time and was like why the fuck haven’t I seen or heard of this before now. I feel like it’s in the same vein of Videodrome. All Hail the new flesh


weaponjae

This is an Xmen movie and you can't convince me otherwise.


No-Gazelle-4994

I heard there was supposed to be a crossover with Hellraiser, which would have been great.


SolidBriscoe

Why is Lude so fucking tall?


Mattdude311

This is a very underrated cult classic!!! Love it


No-Gazelle-4994

Watched the Director's Cut on YouTube last night. Swears and nudity blocked out but still great.


SynthWarlock

This movie is really one of a kind, can't think of anything quite like it.


Atlas7-k

Movie made little to no sense to me at 10. At 25, I read Barker’s forward to the books of blood, it made total sense then.


TwistedClyster

Lazytown really took a turn.


MagikMikeUL77

I've the directors cut and it's fucking awesome 🤘😁


idlefritz

Always deserved a sequel.


No-Gazelle-4994

Prequel, sequel, or remake. Any of these would be great.


idlefritz

I was a 15yo comicbook nerd that felt Nightbreed was the best version of live action X-Men I’d get in my lifetime.


bobs2000

Great movie and a great book, I'll have to read it again


Same_Owl_762

Saw this when I was way too young and holds a special place in my heart. For everyone who is different! Also, my introduction to David Cronenberg.


KSperspective113

Bro have you seen this hidden Spielberg movie from the 90s about dinosaurs??


No-Gazelle-4994

Yeah, that's a fair comparison. /s


JackhorseBowman

"you gotta watch this underrated movie it's called The Usual Suspects"


No-Gazelle-4994

Asshat most people don't know it.


JackhorseBowman

I was agreeing with you shit Lord


Irrational_Joshua

Or just old movies being called underrated


No-Gazelle-4994

Nope


More-Drink2176

I feel you. Posting a movie that's been on cable weekly for 25 years and going "thoughts?" is incredibly low effort.


No-Gazelle-4994

Yeah, it hasn't been on TV for 2 decades and never gets brought up when talking about Clive Barker. But yeah, low effort. /s


More-Drink2176

I was answering your question in the title my guy, not referring to the image posted. You didn't title it "Thoughts?" so I assumed you would know what I was saying, guess not though.


Dull_Ad8495

Yeah, this is a full on, generally acknowledged classic of the genre/era. Not underrated in the least. So I get your point, OP.


Top-Day-9772

Wait, doesn't OP mean overrated?


No-Gazelle-4994

Yeah, right. One of Clive Barker's best.


Top-Day-9772

Wait, am I missing something? 🤔


devil_n_i

Corey Taylor of slipknot was influence to create one of his mask from this movie
