I'm not a #CliveBarker fan: #Nightbreed wasn't on my radar, but discovery of this cut intrigued me. #Octoblur2016 pic.twitter.com/x1b23ghaEB

Main reason I'm watching #Nightbreed for #Octoblur2016 is the @filmsack episode this week: https://t.co/yWnG1MoNlQ pic.twitter.com/oU7jedi55O

Makeup & puppets

Makeup & puppets in #Nightbreed are pretty neat but it's not exactly propulsive storytelling. #Octoblur2016 pic.twitter.com/ca2CKCQiGs

cool stuff

There's been so much cool stuff throughout #Nightbreed - I wish Lori & Boone were more compelling. #Octoblur2016 pic.twitter.com/NpyKJkp6gm

generic comic book

Every character in #Nightbreed is one-note, human or otherwise. It's generic comic book writing. #Octoblur2016 pic.twitter.com/lY9fn3ICAS

great design

Compared to #Hellboy, which is fun comic book writing, #Nightbreed is only great design, no text. #Octoblur2016 pic.twitter.com/uAWYGHeSwq

neat to look at

Something neat to look at every 30 secs in #Nightbreed & fun end battle. It's enough, but barely. #Octoblur2016 pic.twitter.com/uXkL40NadL
