Beyond the Limits: 37 Nightmares

For this edition of Beyond the Limits I wanted to take a look at the painting by Clive Barker entitled, 37 Nightmares. I usually try to get some deep introspection when I examine one of Clive’s paintings, but for this one it’s obvious that Barker only wants to scare the crap...READ MORE...

Retro Review: The Midnight Meat Train

I’ve always been fascinated and disturbed by the underground subway train systems. It’s a subterranean world that holds many mysteries, dark secrets, and legends.

Tuesday Tunes: Dreams Of Angelique

Daniel Licht’s score for Hellraiser: Bloodline was a breath of fresh air after the disappointing score for Hell On Earth which focused more on popular rock music to drive its story rather than the use of traditional orchestrations. With Bloodline it was obvious the filmmakers wanted to go back to a...READ MORE...

Tuesday Tunes: Nightbreed Main Titles

Once again it was time for me to stretch out… Combining dark/fun/sweet/tribal all into one. The great joy in the score for me, other than working for Clive Barker, was being able to use the children’s voices and a whole slew of ethnic drums and instruments together with an orchestra,...READ MORE...

Beyond the Limits: The Believer

For this edition of Beyond the Limits I’ll be talking about the painting entitled, The Believer. Once again I can’t stress enough how Clive’s artwork lets the viewer  become a part of it. You’ll probably get sick of me saying that, but it’s the truth. I’ve never looked at any other...READ MORE...

Review: Nightbreed: The Director’s Cut

This review for The Nightbreed Director’s Cut is going to be a very personal one for me. My feelings on the situation go beyond the movie itself. Honestly, I never thought I’d live to see Clive Barker’s true version of the film. My heart told me it wouldn’t happen, and...READ MORE...
