New Year, New Nightbreed, we hope...

We are almost halfway through the first month of 2013. Looking back at 2012 I am amazed at everything that has happened with Nightbreed The Cabal Cut. There were over 20 screenings of the Cabal Cut, WORLDWIDE. Rue Morgue featured the film on their December 2012 cover. The petition reached well OVER 10,000 signatures in just 10 months. 

So with all the hard work that was put into bringing this film to light in an attempt to convince Morgan Creek to release The Cabal Cut on Blu-Ray, I am hopeful that we may see this happen in 2013. Nothing is ever certain, but this is starting to look like a possibility. 

I'm still trying to keep online articles, blog posts, etc. about the film up to date at scoop.it/bring-back-nightbreed so go there to catch up on anything you've missed. Also be sure to stop by the Occupy Midian Facebook Group to see some really awesome photos that have been shared by people who were there during the original making of the film, also some great conversation goes on over there. Occasionally Russell Cherrington stops by and updates us on the progress and news for the Cabal Cut. I always love it when Russell takes the time to stop by, he is a seriously dedicated man and hard worker. There are so many people who have worked so hard on this film and on raising awareness of it. Thank you all! 

So here's to hoping that Nightbreed The Cabal Cut will get the release it deserves in 2013.

Occupy Midian Report Transcript #9

I apologize for the great delay in posting this transcript, life and my internet connection have been a bit wacky as of late. But better late than never. As always to listen to the report please visit Clive Barker Cast, for this one in particular, it can be found at: http://www.clivebarkercast.com/2012/08/26/episode-20-occupy-midian-on-location-monster-mania/

This is the first Occupy Midian report since the Monster Mania event in New Jersey. Unfortunately I was unable to attend; I cannot wait to hear Ryan’s commentary about his experiences while there. For others, like me, who couldn’t be at this event there are some amazing fan photos and videos from Monster Mania that have been posted on the Occupy Midian Facebook Group’swall.

Anne Bobby has called the Monster Mania weekend “The most fun she’s ever had with clothes on” and I do believe that is saying something. Also during the Q&A panel, Anne called for more letters to be sent to Morgan Creek, tell them why the Cabal Cut is important to you, and ask them when you can buy it on Blu-Ray or DVD. There is a form letter on Occupy Midian’s facebook page under the files tab for you to copy and use if you need to and Morgan Creek’s address is on there as well you will want to edit the letter to include your name and which event you saw the Cabal Cut at. 

Even though I was unable to attend Monster Mania I did get to view part of the Q&A panel thanks to Christian from the Occupy Midian group and the wonderful invention called youtube. You can find links to the Q&A video on, yep you guessed it, the Occupy Midian Facebook page (seriously, if you haven’t joined yet, you really should, we almost always have some interesting news or at least some great conversation going on over there).

I haven’t done an update on the petition lately, but as of now there are over 7,000 signatures. You can find a link to the petition in the top left corner of OccupyMidian.com

As for the future of the Cabal Cut there are currently seven upcoming screenings, six of which take place in the UK and one that will be in Germany. For more information on where those screenings will be held please visit Occupy Midian’s website and click on the screenings link.

We are still encouraging you to sign the petition if you have not, send letters to Morgan Creek to help them realize how many people are truly interested in this film being properly released, and do Occupy Midian sign photos and testimonial videos. For ideas on the photos, view the Occupy Midian Signs under the photos tab on the Occupy Midian Facebook Group. Hopefully with all the publicity that we are gaining and with your help, we can accomplish this goal. We get closer every single day.

Perhaps soon we will free the tribes of the moon. 

Some Cabal Cut Related Videos

On Occupy Midian's Facebook page some pretty amazing videos have been shared, to make it easier for you to locate them, I decided to share them with you here. The first two videos are part 1 and part 2 of the Monster Mania Cabal Cut Q&A as filmed and shared by Christian Francis:





The other video is the Frightfest 2012 Interview of Russell Cherrington and Mark Miller by Phil Newton:

Occupy Midian Report 5 Transcript

The 5th Occupy Midian Report is up on the 15th Episode of the Clive Barker Podcast. To listen please visit: http://www.clivebarkercast.com/2012/06/16/episode-15-clive-barkers-video-games-his-art/

The Nightbreed Cabal Cut screening in Los Angeles, California grew to two screenings that both sold out. This, in addition to the hard work that everyone has put in to raise awareness of this film, has brought about a wonderful thing.

On June 12, Clive Barker announced on his twitter:

My friends, Clive here, writing to share some wonderful news. Following the two Sold Out screenings of NIGHTBREED: The Cabal Cut on Sunday, Morgan Creek has given us permission to show the cut around the world and to raise money to prepare the cut for a release on Blu-ray... This could not, would not have happened without your voices. We have all been heard. The Morgan Creek team have my thanks and my respect. Very seldom does anyone in the movie business pay attention as they have, understanding perhaps that the message of the movie as I shot it is one that dramatizes a different ending to the age-old story of how a war between Humankind and something Other draws to a close. The real NIGHTBREED will be available for everyone to see. I hope its message of redemption and forgiveness move you.

When I first heard this news, I was doing a happy dance all around my apartment. The Occupy Midian Facebook group was donning their celebratory hats once again, and with good reason. But we must keep in mind that there is still quite a bit of work that must be done. Morgan Creek is giving permission to show the cut worldwide, which will raise more awareness about this wonderful film. Also they are giving permission to raise money for preparing the Cabal cut for a Blu-ray release. This means there are still many things that need to be done to the film for it to be ready for release, as well as money that needs to be earned in order to put in this work. We are still waiting for further news from the wonderful folks that have been working so hard on Nightbreed the Cabal Cut on what measures they are going to take to raise funds, and how we the fans can help.

So join us in the celebration in this huge step forward, but please help us continue to spread the word.

Thank you to everyone who has worked so hard on helping to get the word out about this film. And for those of you who are able to attend, there is another screening coming up at the Portage Theatre in Chicago on Friday, July 13^th. For more information on this screening please visit http://occupymidian.com/screenings.html also check there frequently to see if any more screenings have been added.

To all those who have helped in anyway big or small, the Tribes of the Moon embrace you.

Morgan Creek Gives Permission to Raise Money for Blu-Ray of Cabal Cut

I logged onto Facebook about 15 minutes ago to discover that on the Occupy Midian Group there was quite a riveting conversation going.

Jose Leitao posted:

The message from Clive Barker was on twitter this afternoon.

Needless to say we are ecstatic. I will come back to you with what the next steps will be in helping to get the cut shown and to raise money for it's release.

Occupy Midian Report #4 Transcript

The 4th Occupy Midian Report was a bit impromtu, as I re-recorded it right after we reached 5,000 signatures on Friday, June 1st. I will post the original transcript and change the parts that were changed in the impromtu recording. (to listen to the report and the Clive Barker Podcast visit: http://www.clivebarkercast.com/2012/06/03/episode-13-books-of-blood-volume-6-part-2/)

The Nightbreed extended cut petition keeps growing in number of signatures. We’ve had some amazing members helping to push us to meet our goal that we set for ourselves to reach 5,000 signatures by June 1^st.  At the time of this recording, May 31^st, 10:00 p.m. we were at 4,626 signatures.

(We reached 5,000 signatures on June 1st and at the time I recorded the report there was 5,009 signatures, at the moment of creating this blog there are 5,073 signatures, if you haven't signed it please do so at: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/nightbreed/)

We have also seen a few new Occupy Midian Sign photos, which are a great addition to the Facebook Group; it helps to remind everyone what we are gathered there for, and also adds a face to Midian. So if you haven’t yet, or if you just want to do another, I encourage you to create your own Occupy Midian sign photo and share it with us. Or if you are brave enough, do a testimonial video, there are a few on youtube, but as with the signatures, the more we have out there, the more likely we will be heard. So help us get the word out, tell your friends, your family, your acquaintances, even strangers on the internet. Blog it, tweet it, Facebook it, pin it, google+ it, stumble it, scoop.it, share it, email it. C’mon guys, you get the idea. The more effort we put forth, the more we will have to show for it. Sounds cliché, but it tends to be true.

Also before the end of today’s report I want to remind y’all about the two screenings of the Nightbreed Cabal Cut that are coming up soon. The first one is at the New Beverly Cinema in Los Angeles on June 10th and the second is going to be at the Portage Theatre in Chicago on July 13. For more information on these screenings visit: http://occupymidian.com/screenings.html

There are many more for this list, but from me the biggest thank you goes to Colin, Christine, and the others from Occupy Midian who managed to temporarily shut down their Twitter accounts from how many messages they were sending out. That takes a lot of time, dedication, and probably a bit of carpal tunnel.

NIGHTBREED CABAL CUT Petition has Reached 5,000 SIGNATURES

At 7:27 p.m. this Friday, June 1st the Petition for a restored, extended cut of Clive Barker's "Nightbreed" reached 5,000 signatures. In just 2 months and 2 days the Occupy Midian group was able to accomplish what others were not able to. Through the hard work, dedication, and sharing of the fans and the comradery that extended itself to some friendly competition we achieved a great goal.

Now we are waiting to see if Morgan Creek is listening. Are they there waiting in the wings seeing what we are up to? One can only hope, because if they are, then this should mean something to them. Whether they see it as I do (passion) or as businessmen (money) either way, this is a BIG BIG thing.

Where we go from here, well I'll keep you updated on that, but DO NOT stop spreading the word. Keep telling others about this film, continue gathering signatures, do the #OccupyMidian sign photos, blogs, video testimonials, the letters to Morgan Creek. We MUST make them take notice!

To my fellow fans, we can do this, and THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for all of your hard work.

3rd Occupy Midian Report Transcript

Sorry I'm a bit late with this, no excuse other than forgetfulness (oops!). So as always, if you have not listened to it here is the link to the 12th Episode of the Clive Barker Podcast: http://www.clivebarkercast.com/2012/05/27/episode-12-books-of-blood-volume-6-part-1/ which features the 3rd Occupy Midian Report.

And without further ado here is the transcript of the report:

The Occupy Midian movement continues to grow, with new members being added to the Facebook group daily, as well as the petition continuing to gain new signatures. Our most exciting news is the screening of the Nightbreed Cabal Cut at the New Beverly Cinema in Los Angeles on June 10th and at the Portage Theatre in Chicago on July 13. For more information on these screenings visit http://occupymidian.com/screenings.html

One of the Occupy Midian Group’s newest members is Jimmi Johnson who was the editor on the Cabal Cut of Nightbreed and Jimmi also edited the recent teaser trailer. For more information on Jimmi visit his website http://jimmijohnsonhorrorfilmeditor.com

I would also like to extend a belated happy birthday to both Simon Bamford and Nicholas Vince. Speaking of Nicholas, he was able to recently see the Cabal Cut of Nightbreed. His facebook post regarding the movie said: I was privileged to watch The Cabal Cut on Friday night and it is awesome
At last, we get to see the relationship between Lori and Boone, more of The Breed and it was great to hear more of Clive's original dialogue. Russell Cherrington has done an excellent job of showing what this movie could and should be, if Morgan Creek allow access to the original film stock and further support a release on DVD/blu-ray.

He also encouraged any of you who have not signed the petition to do so! (http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/nightbreed/ <sign here)

If you are wanting to see the Nightbreed Cabal Cut there are several things you can do. First and foremost sign the petition if you have not already, secondly, help us to raise awareness about this amazing film. There are more tips under the take action tab on the Bring Back Nightbreed blog.

With your help, we can help get this amazing film into the hands of the masses!

Nightbreed Cabal Cut in Chicago July 13

If you are lucky enough to be in or near Chicago, IL on July 13th you should be sure to check out the Nightbreed Cabal Cut! It is presented by Terror in the Aisles 10 and will be at the Portage Theatre -4050 N. Milwaukee Ave. - There will be an introduction of the film and a Q&A session with the Restoration Director Russell Cherrington and Seraphim Produce Mark Miller.

Occupy Midian Report #2 Transcript

The transcript from the 2nd Occupy Midian Report, the report is featured on the Clive Barker Podcast, this particular report is on Episode 11: http://www.clivebarkercast.com/2012/05/06/episode-011-special-guest-nickolas-vince/

Since our last Occupy Midian Report, our Facebook Group has gained many new members and the petition has garnered hundreds of signatures due to great promotion among other cult movie groups such as Repo! The Genetic Opera and due to OccupyMidian.com. We are quickly filling the gap that there was previously between the member numbers and the number of signatures. That is due to the wonderfully dedicated fans for their help and a big thank you to Julian Parry for all the posts he did trying to encourage other members to sign the petition. And as always our administrators are doing a wonderful job. 

Our biggest bit of news for today is the release of the website OccupyMidian.com Russell Cherrington and mark Miller have put in a lot of work on the website thus far, and those of you who go visit it, will be pleasantly surprised with the Official Teaser Trailer for the Cabal Cut of Nightbreed. You can find this trailer on the Occupy Midian website and also on Youtube. 

We have a few more elite Occupy Midian members to mention that have joined our ranks. These members are Geoff Portass, he was one of the founders of Image Animation. Kate Murray, she worked on Nightbreed's special makeup effects, and Lionel Grenier, who is the Editor in Chief of the French Cinema Magazine, "Manivelle".

On the Occupy Midian page, we have had some amazing photos shared within the community, photos of Nightbreed movie props, and photos from the set of our members who were on the movie crew. There is such an amazing amount of Nightbreed memorabilia that you will have to see it for yourself. On another note, Hugh Ross recently had a birthday. We were notified via Anne Bobby's Facebook page, so thank you for that Anne! And Happy Belated Birthday to you, Hugh!

Today, I would like to address the wonderful poster and t-shirt designs that some of the fans are coming up with. I know it is frustrating to hear the admins tell you that Occupy Midian does not condone creating Nightbreed merchandise to SELL. However, the intentions behind these statements are good; we do not want to cause any copyright or other legal issues that would turn Morgan Creek off from our goal; which is to have the Cabal Cut of Nightbreed released. But, you can create a poster or t-shirt for purely personal use, so long as you get permission to use copyrighted material. We love seeing your ideas and on't want you think we are trying to be unduly cruel to your hard work; we just do not want anything to accidentally backfire and ruin oru chances of finally having a shot at making the Cabal Cut of Nightbreed a possibility in the realm of reality.

Please be sure to keep the fan photos, tweets, testimonial videos, blogs, and more coming, help us to get out the word of Occupy Midian! We must be sure our voices do not falter, for we need Morgan Creek to hear the call of Midian as strongly as we do!

Help the Tribes of The Moon

Imagine the Tribes today, where are they, do they hear the same call that those of us with Occupy Midian do?

She glanced at the cigarette between her fingers, noticing the lines and creases that had deepened over the years. She watched the ash grow against the flaming ember of the cherry and tried to remember. Lately, memories were fading more and more. Try as she might she could not remember when she first started smoking and now the act gave her no pleasure, it was a habit, no a time honored tradition, that held her to her old self, like a blanket that comforts a babe in its youth. 

She felt the calling, and knew the others felt it too, as they grew restless in their slumber. Twenty-two years of traveling. Twenty-two years of searching. Their numbers had both grown and dwindled, losing some, while gaining others through birth or discovery. her own children were amongst them. Creatures of the night or Tribes of the Moon.

Since that fateful night in Midian, the group had been separated, with her Boone trying to lead them back to one another, back to home. No, Cabal was their leader, Boone was her lover. Two different creatures, one man, one beast, but residing within the confines of one body. She, herself, shared this dilemma, the dilemma of being two. And, oh, what a joyful dilemma it could be.

The call came to her again, as it had more frequently these last three months. She looked to Cabal, he only nodded and said, "Baphomet."

 Help the Tribes of the Moon answer Baphomet's call, sign the petition for the release of the Cabal Cut of Nightbreed: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/nightbreed/

Occupy Midian Report 1 Transcript

I apologize that it has taken me so long to get this typed up for you guys. Busy schedule with school and work lately, I will do my best to do better with the next report transcript.

It is hard to believe that we are only three weeks into the Occupy Midian Movement. Since the Facebook Group was created it has literally exploded with an outpouring of support from Nightbreed fans. In the past three weeks we have accrued nearly 2500 members, the petition is also nearing 2500 signatures. If you have not signed the petition, please do so, there should be a link on clivebarkercast.com that you can follow.  

We have also had the pleasure of having support from many of the people who worked on the film joining the ranks of Occupy Midian, both on Facebook and using the #OccupyMidian hashtag on Twitter. We've had Clive Barker himself tweeting as well as few other famous tweeters such as Neil Gaiman, Nicholas Vince, Simon Bamford, and Steven Niles. On Facebook our group is blessed to be able to count Russell Cherrington and Mark Miller amongst its administrators. Within the Occupy Midian group we are able to count Anne Bobby, Simon Bamford, Hugh Ross, Nick Vince, Robbie Drake, and Jullian Parry amongst our members. For anyone I left out, I sincerely apologize, but it is a task going through nearly 2500 members to seek you out. Let me know who you are and I will be sure you achieve proper credit in our next Occupy Midian Report. 

Along with asking fans to sign the petition, there is currently a call on Occupy Midian for fan photos with a sign telling what Nightbreed means to them. We have had some amazing fan photo uploads as well as sign photos from Anne Bobby, Mark Miller, and a very convincing Dr. Decker looking fan.

In addition to all of this, Occupy Midian has had some amazing publicity, there are some great fan videos and Nightbreed testimonials up on Youtube, Fangoria.com has an article up, ProudlyResents.com did a podcast interviewing Russell Cherrington, GeeksofDoom.com has written an article about Occupy Midian as well as: Rue-Morgue.com, Mutantville.com, ShocktilYouDrop.com, and many others. I am trying to keep a running list of all the articles, videos, and podcasts that are done about Occupy Midian on Scoop.it/bring-back-nightbreed as there are so many it would be nearly impossible to go over them all here.

The fans of Nightbreed are many and we are occupying Midian to the extreme. Join the ranks of the Tribes of the Moon, Occupy Midian, and in the words of Clive Barker, "Go Forth & Breed."

Nightbreed's Chocolat

We briefly mentioned Choclat in Breed Beauties. Another photo from Nightbreed and a tad bit more information on her has surfaced. First the photo:

Chocolat is the figure that is 3rd from the right, she has her head covered and is carrying a wrapped infant. And we also have a possible sighting of her when the Sons of the Free are storming Midian.

I have also found another image of Choclate in Clive Barker's Nightbreed The Making of the Film on pg. 190

While I did not find any other image information on her yet, there is a piece of a scene that could very well refer to our beautiful mother Chocolat:

ASHBURY: Dear Lord...Forgive me...
There are images here which have the flavour of Christian iconography. Mother and Child.... 

Though it would be hard to say if that line references Chocolate and her sweet little babe without asking Clive Barker for sure.

If you have more information on Chocolat, please contact us, we are always itching for more information.

Don't forget to see the Nightbreed Cabal Cut you must Take Action and #OccupyMidian!

Occupy Midian Inspired Poetry

It is a little rough, but posting it while I have a second to do so.

Tribes of the Moon by Crystal Raen

They painted the stars, before they had to flee,
In blood and tears and agony.
The years have passed, they travel on,
Never finding another home.
They creep along the unlit path,
Always waiting with baited breath
To hear the call of Baphomet. 
The scattered limbs of a deity,
Is all they own to carry.
The night it owns them, it’s what they say,
Never will their faces touch the day.
But so long as Midian awaits,
Hidden behind a long lost gate,
Their souls will have place to be,
Forever monsters, Forever free.

Breed Beauties

Was perusing the Occupy Midian group on Facebook when I noticed a conversation going about how sexy Shuna Sassi is/was. So I decided to go on a quest and find some more gorgeous/sexy breed ladies, just to prove that not all that is in Midian is monstrous looking. So without further ado, the Breed Beauties (I linked the photos back to the original places I found them).

Rachel

Rachel is a shape shifter, her body is capable of becoming smoke, a very subtle smoke, that is able to pass through solid material. She was born in Hungary and little else is known about her.

Shuna Sassi

Shuna Sassi is covered in poison quills, and once worked in a bordello. She has found love, in the form of Peloquin.

Chocolat

Image from Clive Barker's The Nightbreed Chronicles

Unfortunately, I do not recall seeing Chocolat in either version of the movie, but she is definitely one of the Breed Beauties. She is the mother of 3 never aging children(infants), one of which was stolen away from her.

Annastasjia

Annastasjia has always been a beauty, even before she became breed. She was considered a great beauty of the silent movies she acted in. However, a botched skin graft that tried to take over resulted in Annastasjia to accept that she was host to the previous owner of the skin she received. She is now in Midian.

Lizzie B

Image from Clive Barker's The Nightbreed Chronicles

Lizzie B is a beauty that is rarely seen, but she is one of the Tribes of the Moon.

Unknown

I do not know the above Breed's name, but her facial structure is one of beauty, despite the missing lower face. And lovely eyes I might add.

Lori

And, well, if you watched the original movie, you have no idea that Lori becomes Breed. Unless of course you read the book Cabal by Clive Barker. And Lori, played by Anne Bobby, is most certainly a Breed BEAUTY!

If I were a breed beauty I would want horns...(photo from Halloween '09) But I felt it was as close to looking like a Midian occupant as I will ever get. I want to see your Occupy Midian photos and your photos as you showing your Breed face! Share links, etc. in the comments please!

#OccupyMidian Signs

The Occupy Midian Facebook group has a call for Occupy Midian Sign photos:

My photo:


Sign reads:
My Name: Crystal Raen
I have been blessed to see the Cabal Cut of Nightbreed.
The story moved me to tears and action.
This film must be shared in order to save the breed.
I will #Occupymidian until Cabal’s release.

V's Photo:


My Name is Richie Vaughan.
I’ve been a fan of Nightbreed for 20 years.
The Cabal Cut was everything that I hoped it would be and more. Everyone must see it and be able to own it.
I will #OCCUPYMIDIAN (literally) until the cabal cut is released.

If you want to create your own, just snap a pic with your sign, join Occupy Midian on Facebook and upload your photo to the Occupy Midian Signs. 

Oh I almost forgot, who ever has the most comments on their photo by Midnight on Friday, April 21st will win:

1st Prize: An Uncorrected Proof of Weaveworld
2nd Prize : The Rawhead Rex story arc run of the Nighbreed comics.
3rd Prize : An autographed picture of Clive.

If you can't get your photo into the Occupy Midian Signs photo album, just ask one of the admins for help, those guys are great!

Help us bring back Nightbreed as the Cabal Cut! Occupy Midian and Go Forth and Breed!
