NECA They Live Ghouls 042

The NECA Toys They Live 8″ Scale Figure 2-Pack has just hit the NECA eBay Store and the NECA Amazon Store. To commemorate the release, we have an advanced look at the set. In John Carpenter’s cult classic They Live, a nameless drifter (now known as John Nada) is just looking to get by, working any jobs he can. While taking a job on a construction site, he comes across sunglasses that reveal a terrible truth. The specialized lenses block out an alien signal that shows that Earth has been infiltrated by strange looking aliens, masquerading as humans. The aliens are using subliminal messaging to lull the world into a false sense of security, allowing the ghouls to go by unnoticed. As Nada takes justice into his own hands, he comes across a group of rebels who stand against the invading ghouls, and look to alert humanity to the danger around them.

The new 2-pack features two of the “ghouls” from the film. The male and female aliens are revealed at the end of the film, when the world is shown the true appearance of those among them. The figures are part of the retro style clothed figure line. The set includes a magazine and a newspaper with the hidden massages on the front and back. Also included is a TV set that showcases a ghoul masquerading as a politician.

Not only have our friends at NECA supplied us with the figure, but they have confirmed that more figures based on They Live are in the works! They hinted that the likeness rights may have been acquired for some of the cast. After the jump, you can check out my thoughts and photos for the set.

Nightbreed Decker 8 Inch Figure 033

The cult classic horror film Nightbreed is nearing it’s 30th anniversary. The film, directed by Clive Barker, follows Aaron Boone, who is suffering crippling nightmares of a city full of monsters. When he visits a psychologist named Dr. Phillip Decker, Boone is framed for the serial killer murders that Decker is committing. Chased down and killed by police, Boone is brought back to life as an inhabitant of Midian, the monster filled city he had visions of. Together, they are forced to face Decker as he schemes to destroy the underground city, and all the monsters who dwell there.

Nightbreed is a fascinating film, with amazing set pieces, a great assortment of creature designs, and a surprising amount of world building. Sadly, it suffered immensely from studio interference, which resulted in a much shorter theatrical film than Clive Barker had wanted. There are have been multiple cuts of the film over the years. The three main versions are the Theatrical Cut, the Cabal Cut, and the recent Director’s Cut. Each one is actually quite different, with the Cabal Cut and Director’s Cut shifting focus away from Decker, and adding more to the Midian mythology. The theatrical cut is the most widely known, and gives us some great scenes with Decker, who is played by horror icon David Cronenberg.

NECA has released an 8″ scale figure of Dr. Phillip Decker in their cloth figure line. The masked figure includes an impressive array of bladed weapons, as well as a suitcase for storing some of the knives. Our friends at NECA have provided us with the figure. After the jump, check out my thoughts and full gallery.
