Film / Film News New Nightbreed cut to see light of day
Posted By Adam Frazier on Mon, Aug 19, 2013 at 6:00 PM
Based on his 1988 novella Cabal, Clive Barker's 1990 film Nightbreed, produced by Morgan Creek and distributed by Twentieth Century Fox, was an epic saga about a tribe of monsters and outcasts that hides from humanity. Barker's original version of Nightbreed ran 160 minutes, but unsure of how to sell the unconventional fantasy-horror film, Fox demanded a recut, prompting editor Richard Marden to leave the project in protest.
The theatrical cut of Nightbreed was released on February 16, 1990. Barker's film was hoped to be the Star Wars of the horror genre, but after nearly an hour of footage was cut from the film, the studio repackaged it as a gory 102-minute slasher flick, like Friday the 13th or The Prowler. As a result, the film was a critical and commercial failure - an incomplete, haphazard curiosity that only the most die-hard Barker fans could find value in.
Now, Barker's ultimate vision will finally see the light of day in the fully restored Nightbreed: The Cabal Cut, to be distributed by Scream Factory, a division of Shout! Factory that focuses on cult horror and sci-fi films, in 2014.
