In this monster-packed episode, Jon, Ryan, and Kearns journey deep into the catacombs of Nightbreed (1990), Clive Barker’s wildly ambitious dark fantasy about monsters, misfits, and the secret city of Midian. What begins as a tale of murder and madness transforms into a mythic clash between the outcasts of the underworld and the brutality of mankind—led by none other than David Cronenberg in a terrifying turn as the masked serial killer Decker.
The guys unravel Barker’s original vision versus the studio-mangled theatrical cut, explore the lore-rich monster pantheon, and tackle why Nightbreed is both a cult classic and a cautionary tale in creative interference. Expect deep dives into monstrous metaphors, a healthy appreciation for latex and leather, and the eternal question: why are the monsters always more human than the humans?
Whether you're Breed or just Breed-curious, this one’s for the outsiders.
