The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

Nightbreed [The Director's Cut] (2014)

Starring: Craig Sheffer, David Cronenberg, Anne Bobby, Charles Haid
Director: Clive Barker

Premise:
A serial killer psychiatrist pins his murders on an unstable patient with delusions of a mythical world full of mutants.

My Take:
It's been years since I saw the original film, but I remember it being fairly uneven. With this new director's cut, I sort of feel the same. It's the same film yet different in many ways. At least this version is closer to Barker's original idea.

Rating: In the middle
