nightbreed-midian is where the monsters go

from the mind of clive barker (who brought us hellraiser) comes the 1990 release of "nightbreed".a total box office flop but has become a cult classic and for good reason.while many people,including the studios,could not comprehend barkers subversive movie in regards to good guy/bad guy dynamic (barker makes the monsters the good guys).

while barker is a far better writer than director he does have a talent to make us uncomfortable with our safe and secure stereotypes.this movie did have many flaws but two characters stand out:
one is dr philip k decker (buttonface) played by david cronenberg
and the other is narcisse played fantastically by hugh ross.
this is the scene where boone (schaeffer) meets narcisse for the first time in the hospitol and tries to find out where midian is to unexpected results.
