Tema: Razas de noche (Nightbreed, 1990, Clive Barker)

Shout! Factory and Morgan Creek Productions officially announced today a strategic distribution alliance to bring Clive Barker’s classic horror film Nightbreed extended director’s cut to the home entertainment marketplace in the U.S and Canada and on digital entertainment platforms next year. The announcement was made by Shout! Factory’s founders Richard Foos, Bob Emmer and Garson Foos along with David Robinson, President of Morgan Creek Productions. The news initially broke at Comic-Con 2013, however the agreement formally reached by both parties occurred today.


For years rumors swirled about substantial missing footage from the film. A fan-driven movement was created (www.OccupyMidian.com) to see the full version of the film restored and re-released, which was not only a more faithful adaptation of Clive Barker’s book 'Cabal,' but is what originally he intended Nightbreed to be.


Clive Barker said, 'I had a dream about the tribes of the moon. They would live in a city called Midian and, though they were monsters of every shape and size, they would be the heroes of a movie called Nightbreed. However, when I made the movie, the studio was not comfortable with this inversion of the classic structure. They wanted the monsters to be simple-minded scare machines, while I wanted them to be the dark side of all of us, mysterious and misunderstood. Finally, with this new version of Nightbreed, which contains over forty five minutes of previously unseen material, my original vision has been realized. Come with me to Midian, the city of monsters. The tribes of the moon await us.'


'We are excited by this opportunity with Morgan Creek and are huge fans of Clive Barker. His cinematic works and brilliant storytelling continue to captivate fans worldwide,' stated Shout! Factory’s founders in a joint statement. 'We look forward to working closely with Clive to bring his original vision to life.'


Shout!’s Scream Factory plans an aggressive rollout of Nightbreed extended director’s cut through physical home entertainment releases and a variety of digital entertainment distribution platforms sometimes next year.


'We’d also like to take this opportunity to thank the fans,' noted Robinson. 'Without their hard work and persistence, this would have never become a reality. Clive Barker is one of the greats, and we are tremendously proud and excited to be working with him and Shout! Factory on this release.'

Lástima que no llevará subtítulos en español. A ver si alguna editora patria se anima.

Ahora hay que decir:

"Lástima que no llevara subtítulos en español. A ver si alguna editora patria MÍNIMAMENTE DECENTE Y PROFESIONAL se anima."

Y es que hay una de cuervos...

Me tiene como loco por ver ese montaje. Espero que tengamos alguna posibilidad.

Shout factory son de esos que sólo sacan con bloqueo de zona

Nuestra única esperanza es que alguna editora europea como Arrow se traiga eso a Europa, y si eso ya que aproveche para hacer una megaedición (por ejemplo, incluyendo los dos montajes).

Lo que no han dicho aún es si van a remontar la película acudiendo al celuloide original o si se van a limitar a editar esa copia cutre de VHS que han estado proyectando por todo el mundo para interesar a la gente.

Firstly, the ideal scenario was always that the actual original film elements would be found for the purposes of the restoration. Sadly, this hasn't happened, so the DVD will be produced using the second-best option of restoring the VHS for the extra scenes.


"There's still no sign of the negatives," opines Cherrington. "We've had a few leads that have all been dead ends, although I really hope we can find more film elements. They found most of the original Wicker Man on film just today, so it could happen!"


Secondly, a Blu-ray to go along with the DVD doesn't seem to be guaranteed at this point. But, says Cherrington, "I've spent the last year researching what can be done with the VHS materials, and I know that with money and time this can look at least as good as the Alien3 workprint. I have every hope for 1080p!"


Finally, with Scream Factory a US company, this seems, so far, to be a US only release, with questions of region locking unclear. So for the UK and Europe? "We have a distributor of fine genre cinema who wants to put The Cabal Cut out in the UK," Cherrington promises. "Morgan Creek wants it out there, and so does Seraphim, so it's only a matter of time. Once we've worked out the rights it will be out in Clive Barker's and my own home country."


"Nobody is willingly witholding a [European] release," adds Miller. "These are complicated legal matters but everyone is working their way through them!"
