Clive Barker’s Nightbreed To Become a TV Show?
Recently Clive Barker has been undergoing some very serious health problems, but thankfully he pulled through and is now recovering. Thankfully, not only is the man in good shape, but we also have the possibility that Nightbreed is in line to become a TV show.
During an interview on Barker’s website, he mentioned some very tasty details indeed about a Nightbreed TV series:
“We are also actively in conversation about doing a Nightbreed television series which will be for cable, so it will have a chance to be as sexy or as graphic in terms of the violence as we need it to be. For example, do you have Spartacus over there? Oh my God, it redefines gruesome… I also applaud them for finally realising it’s not a bad thing to see a manhood once in a while – it’s not as if half the world doesn’t see it daily…”
“The sensitivity of our culture has sort of caught up with Nightbreed. I don’t wish to be immodest but the general sense is that the movie failed because people didn’t want to associate with the monster and I think our culture has changed – I think our culture is now ready to embrace the ambiguity. You’ve only got to look at Twilight where obviously the monsters are the good guys – I’m not a huge fan but I’m enough of a fan to watch and see monsters being celebrated. There’s something very satisfying about seeing the evolution of the werewolves…”
