Episode 60: Clive Barker’s Nightbreed (Director’s Cut)

"Dr Philip Decker is a respected psychiatrist who has been leading a double life..."

"- Double Decker!"

The panel of peril die before being swiftly resurrected on the mortuary slab. They then go to an underground town named Midian. They then watch this week’s film Nightbreed: The Director’s Cut (Clive Barker, 1990/2014).

Aaron Boone (Craig Sheffer) is a young man plagued by dreams of monsters residing in the hidden town of Midian. Not only that but he is convinced that he is a prolific killer of humans, specifically children, but this notion has been driven into him by his therapist Dr. Phillip K. Decker (David Cronenberg). But just how will Boone’s dreams and his imagined crimes collide?

********PLOT SPOILER ALERT********

Decker’s plan is truly diabolical: framing Boone for his own murders, and causing his death at the hands of the police. Little does he know that Boone’s connection to Midian means he can resurrect, embrace his monstrous nature and join with the Nightbreed to combat the nefarious forces of man. Will our gang of rag tag freaks be able to hold back Decker and the cops, or is Midian and her denizens done for?

Just what did the panel think of this week’s movie, pray tell? How can they improve upon the villain’s masterplan? And, in this final episode of season 3, who will be christened most diabolical?
