Why has Sidehow never attacked the license....Am I the only one who would love to see these get made....

[DarkArtist81]

God it has been too long since I've seen this movie... So much in that pic looks foreign to me, but I remember it being a cool movie...

My memory sucks... :monkey2

[King Darkness]

You should revisit it Josh....Its not the greates movie, but it does have some really kick ass character designs in it....

Hey, that's reason enough for me!! Many movies I just barely liked when I was younger, I now watch and love... it's funny how that works out.

Man, I remember when I was a kid... the Kurgan actually freaked me out. Now I laugh everytime he comes into the scene. Funny how the villian of your youth becomes the hero of your adulthood. :lol

Hes called my dad:D .....He used to scare the **** our of me as a kid, now hes my hero!

Hilarious!!!

I was lucky.. my Dad was cool, just hardly there... Our only real bonding when I was a kid was watching Horror and Sci-Fi together. I really owe a lot of who I am today to him... He raised me on Jason, Freddy, Halloween, Hellraiser, Highlander, Zombie flicks, Enemy Mine, Evil Dead, and a slew of others that would take me days to fully list.

We still have a tradition of watching a sci-fi or horror flick every year on his B-day and Father's Day. He's the man... :chew

What a kick ass dad....I watch horror movies arond my pop and he think I'am some kind of freak....You should have seen the look on his face when I got my 1:1 Legend bust...it was priceless.....

[King Darkness]

Why aren't the horror threads that have new posts in them or when there is a new thread, coming up on the home page??

[Gruson]

I love a lot of horror movies but never cared for this one.

[BDboystoys]

hmm Ive never heard of it!:confused:

I love a lot of horror movies but never cared for this one.

Me neither, it just felt...flat.

Clive Barker's Night Breed, I always liked this movie. A pity it has so few fans. I doubt I'll buy the merchandise, but I think I'm going after the DVD...

[Shai Hulud]

Count me in !!!!! While the movie was so-so..the novel by Clive Barker called '' Cabal'' was excellent...And the monsters in it have such great design...I want a Narcisse and a Peloquin figure...And the killer played by David Croenenberg was awesome !!!! 12 '' Nightbreed yeah...and 12 '' Near Dark... !!!!!

[PsychoCenobite]

I quite liked this film when I was young.

I haven't seen it in a long time but I liked the fat creature with his head in his belly and his arms up high! :monkey5

I've heard the film was cut/edited and wasn't show as Barker wanted. I've got my fingers crossed for a Directors Cut DVD! :monkey1

Ooh, I'd love a masked killer figure! :chew

Ooh, and the guy who cut most of his face off!!!! :cool:

yeah i hate when i hear this stuff about some movies. they are just so-so, but then you hear that it was edited differently from what the director wanted, and then you wonder why?? im gonna try to get nightbreed at blockbuster this weekend and re-watch it.

Director Clive Barker was reportedly required to cut the film down to 101 minutes from the original 126 minute cut by distributor 20th Century Fox. They felt that this cut was too long and rather too explicit for an R-rated release. Also, Barker shot additional scenes with David Cronenberg's Decker character to flesh out his mentality. The excised footage consisted of some very graphic gore during the climax, disturbing images in the monsters' lair and quite a bit of "unnecessary" character development. There were also some strange sexual themes between the monsters and Boone that wound up on the cutting room floor.

A scene filmed in stop-motion animation, but deleted from the film, has a leopard woman riding a dinosaur-like creature through Median.

Writer/Director Clive Barker is reportedly preparing a restored "Director's Cut" of the film for DVD release.

Ive read the same thing Psycho. Hopefully a directors cut is on the horizon.

and a SS ButtonFace to mark the event. :monkey1

I've got my fingers crossed for a Directors Cut but I've seen that news on IMDB for a few years now and no update.

Well I dreams were answered with the Workprint Cut of 'Alien3' a few years back. Now were're getting Superman 2. So I'm hoping we might see the original cut of Nightbreed!

I remember having the comic of Nightbreed as well. I think it was in a comic called Hellblaser?!

One issue came with a nice painting of Button Face... I think you can find it on Google images.

I liked the book and movie... but its been years since I had either. They would definitely be cool figures, but my guess (like Dead/Alive) is that NECA would me most likely to pick them up or (shudder) MacFarlane. These could be a cool addition if Sideshow would take 'em on.

I think its funny that so many people are on the NECA train now but hate McFarlane. Even though its pretty clear that NECA is becoming McFarlane. Their sculpts and figures are getting pretty difficult to tell apart if your not familair with who has what license all the way down to the clamshells.

But since i collect neither anymore, SS is the only way to go. :D

[galactiboy]

No I'm not on the NECA train, I think the suck about as bad in general. I especially hate the wrists that always seem ready to fall out. I think NECA does seem to (overall) do better when it comes to articulation... ball jointed necks and shoulders. But it has to be a really cool property, or deeply discounted before I'll bite. Shaun of the dead will be one of them.

I would love to see a directors cut of this film...And while I agree with some of ou that the film wasnt great, I just think that the characters deserve some 12" treatment.:rock:rock:rock

That was Narcisse...who became Boone's friend...

And concerning NECA,yeah they are cheap plastic figures, but I woud trade even Sdeshow's Star Wars and LOTR licences just to have half the ones they got....

Some of Neca's licences:

-Pirates of the Carabeeans
-Hellraiser
-House of a 1000 corpses and Devils rejects
- Gremlins
- Freddy and Jason
-The Crow
- Ghostbusters
- Silence of the lambs
- Donnie Darko
- Phantasm
- Shaun of the Dead
- Kill Bill
- Sin City
- Resident Evil
- Tron
- Texas Chaisaw Massace
- Chucky
- Pulp Fiction ( in some forms)
- Masters of the universe
- American Psycho
- Dawn of the Dead
- Bubba Ho-tep
- Terminator
- Robocop
- Die Hard trilogy
- Higlander
- Iron Maiden ( just imagine Ediie getting the Sideshow Treatment...woww)
-Army of Darkness
- Saw

+ all those new music licences announce: Nirvana, John Lennon, Queen....

Anyway you get the point.All those licences if pursued by Sideshow could made amazing figures

I've said it before...Neca is a licence juggernaut.....Well I guess if SS leaves us out in the cold, Neca is making a Medieval Kurgan:o....If SS could pick up HALF of these....oh man... that would kick ass!!

[denger4000]

Besides the price point a lot of people have something against 12 inch figures, they think they are too much like "dolls". even a true doll is a stuffed toy, which would make Barbie an action figure...any way, I love Nightbreed and would buy anything Nightbreed that sideshow would make.

Hope we don't have to wait to long for this!

[King Darkness]

the novel by Clive Barker called '' Cabal'' was excellent...

Yes it was, and much better than the movie!!

[Poelzig]

The Nightbreed are among the few modern movie monsters that I would like to have as figures.That scene when Lori went searching for Boone in Midian had a very classic/vintage feel to it,the monsters reminded me of the man- beasts from 1933's Island of Lost Souls.

Here's who I'd want,12'' scale

Peloquin- The dreadlocked lizard-man who's bite mocks death

Kinski- The cresent moon faced member of Midian

Lude- The acrobatic black skinned Devil

Shauna Sassi- The porquipine woman with deadly quills

Baphomet- God of Midian,an 18'' premi would blow my mind.

Boone/Cabal- With two alternate heads

Decker/Buttonface- With optional Cronenberg head

His name is Vastly Moses I believe.There is a book called The Nightbreed Chronicles that has portrait photo's and character descriptions of all the Breed written by Clive himself.You might want to check it out.
