Nightbreed

From the mind of writer/director Clive Barker - the macabre visionary responsible for Hellraiser and Candyman - comes Nightbreed, a nightmare-induced fantasy set in a world like nothing you've ever experienced before... one which will leave you questioning who the real monsters are. By night, Aaron Boone (Craig Sheffer, Teen Wolf) dreams of Midian, a hidden subterranean world where monsters have created a haven from humanity. Under pressure from his girlfriend Lori (Anne Bobby, Born on the Fourth of July), he attends psychotherapy sessions, unaware that his shrink, Dr Decker (Videodrome director David Cronenberg), is setting him up to take the fall for a series of violent murders. Convinced he no longer belongs in the human world, Boone goes in search of Midian - not realising that the real killer has plans for both him and the colourful cast of outsiders who call it home...The victim of studio interference and an unrepresentative marketing campaign, Nightbreed was poorly received by critics on its initial release and failed to ignite the box office, but has since undergone a radical reappraisal. Arrow Video is proud to present two versions of this depraved cult classic: the studio-approved theatrical cut and the reconstructed, reinvigorated director's cut, for the ultimate nightmarish viewing experience.2-DISC SPECIAL EDITION CONTENTSHigh Definition Blu-ray™ (1080p) presentations of the 120-minute director's cut, transferred from the original camera negative, and the 102-minute theatrical cut, transferred from the original interpositiveLossless 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio and uncompressed 2.0 PCM audio on the director's cutUncompressed 2.0 PCM audio on the theatrical cutOptional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingNew audio commentary on the theatrical cut by critics Adrian J Smith and David FlintAudio commentary on the director's cut by writer/director Clive Barker and restoration producer Mark Alan MillerIntroduction to the director's cut by Clive Barker and Mark Alan MillerWalking the Line Between Heaven and Hell, a new video interview with critic Kat EllingerMemories of Midian, a new video interview with actor Nicholas VinceSpeaking up for the Monsters, a new video interview with critic Kim NewmanTribes of the Moon: Making Nightbreed, an extensive documentary on the making of the film, featuring actors Craig Sheffer, Doug Bradley, Anne Bobby and many moreMaking Monsters, a documentary on the film's creature designs, featuring special makeup designer Bob KeenFire!
