Clive certainly set the horror world on its *ss when those BoB were published. Everyone was talking about the new kid on the block. Stephen even says that 'he makes the rest of us look like we've been asleep' or something to that effect besides this one: 'I have seen the future of horror and it is Clive Barker'. Clive was hot, hot, hot for quite a while and then he cooled off. I used to get all of his books and comics but after he went into fantasy and not so much horror I jumped off of the wagon.Yeah, I haven't seen Nightbreed (or any other movie based on Barker's work, aside from Hellraiser...) I'm saving the short stories for later--I have them in a Books of Blood omnibus. Can't wait to get to them, though.
