Anyone remember this movie? I was just thinking about some good horror movies to watch and forgot all about this good ole Clive Barker classic. When horror movies were good...

I do. The Book was so much better though. Clive's gift for creeping the hell out of you just doesn't translate completely to film. Still a good movie.

That was a horror movie?

Alright, but only as much as Stokers "Dracula" was.

Also Phee if you're going to post the image of the book the least you could do is hide a RAR file with the text in it. I just tried to unzip that and it told me no.

This is actually one of only a few movies I have ever seen that I thought was better than the book (Cabal). I feel the same way about Hellraiser (The Hellbound Heart) and Lord of Illusions as well. I also loved Candyman, but I never did get around to reading The Forbidden to see if it was better then the movie. Clive Barker's work ,seems to me, to come out better on screen then it does on paper. Nightbreed has always been one of my favorites ever since the first time I viewed it. The ending always led me to believe that there was going to be a second one, but dissapointingly, to my knowledge I don't think there ever was. The characters in this movie were just fantastic and Midia.....can you imagine such a place.....only Clive Barker can.
