To celebrate the announcement of the impending 4K release of the original Candyman on bluray by Arrow Video, I thought I’d do a Clive Barker Podcast’s Scene of the Week from the movie. I’ve chosen the haunting scene where Professor Philip Purcell recounts the story of how Daniel Robitaille becomes...READ MORE...

The first time I saw Hellraiser it was on a terrible VHS copy that was muddled with horrible tracking lines. Most of the beautiful visuals for the movie were lost, but at least all the gory makeup effects by Image Animation I could still see. Thankfully the story was so...READ MORE...
For this Tuesday Tunes I wanted to share a song by the group Shock called ‘Dynamo Beat’ who actress Barbie Wilde (Female Cenobite) from Hellbound: Hellraiser II was involved with earlier in her career. I especially love the music and visual style of this video. All the costumes and makeup are...READ MORE...
Like opening Lemarchand’s configuration, I didn’t have a full understanding of what I was getting into. This is not an audiobook, it’s a full-blown audio drama. This means that though it is extremely faithful to the story, it is an adaptation by Paul Kane. There is no narration because the...READ MORE...
Our friendly nameless source has once again shared with us some exciting news. Clive Barker’s iconic character Pinhead will be making his video game debut on the popular online survival horror game Dead By Daylight! He also says that an all new survivor (Kirsty or Tiffany anyone?) and original map...READ MORE...
“Let’s dive right in, shall we?” – The Auditor Yes, let’s do! I want to get it out of the way very early so there’s no confusion: I really enjoyed Hellraiser: Judgment. Is it a perfect film? No, but for a film that cost less than five-hundred thousand dollars to...READ MORE...

After talking with him, it’s quite obvious he has a deep love and affection for the franchise. He’s a fan like all of us and...READ MORE...
Big things always have small beginnings. Little did anyone know that this conversation between podcast co-founder Ryan Danhauser and Nightbreed actors Anne Bobby and Craig Sheffer at the 2012 Mad Monster Party in Charlotte, NC would create horror movie history. AB: And you know what? Honestly, I think one of...READ MORE...
UPDATE: Hey guys, The Clive Barker Podcast wants to let everyone know that this script isn’t being made available to the public. We hope you all understand this. Best, CBP Crew Here’s a question I often ponder: Does the world really need a Hellraiser remake? The original film is perfect...READ MORE...
Before we got involved with Occupy Midian, we were a Podcast and a Blog. This blog began its life in December 2011 as an idea I got after spending several hours hanging out at the signing table with Clive Barker an Mark Miller at Texas Frightmare Weekend, in 2011 (I...READ MORE...
Almost just as interesting (and sometimes confusing) as the different versions or cuts of Nightbreed are the different releases. You’re pretty lucky when you’re living in the U.S. (or own a codefree player!), but you’re… not quite so lucky if you don’t. Simply because most of the best (legit) releases...READ MORE...
Hello Friends: In case you missed it, here’s a post with the video I made about the Nightbreed: Cabal Cut Blu-Ray, with a little bit of intro and backstory about it, hope you enjoy it.
When I was writing full time for the podcast a few years ago it seemed the Hellraiser remake was on the fast track to actually becoming a reality. This was coming off the hot heels of the newly released director’s cut of Nightbreed, which was garnering a lot of excellent...READ MORE...
Today’s Clive Barker‘s Birthday! Born in 1952 in Liverpool, Merseyside, Clive grew up creating stories for his toys, making little movies with them and repainting the wallpaper with watercolors when things went wrong with the monster spitting fire at the plastic men. He was entertained by the spooky tales his...READ MORE...
Clive Barker fans know, and hopefully have made peace with the fact the he will never follow every thread, write every sequel or even finish every book or story he’s begun. Thankfully, we have Mark Miller and his awesome team at Seraphim Films / Seraphim Ink, to help us fill...READ MORE...
