Definitely a fitting conclusion to Clive Barker's original book.
I'm happy Peloquin is finally cool with Boone. I'm glad the Nightbreed have somewhere to live.
The movie ends on such a cliffhanger and I'm glad we were given a real conclusion. 

Still wish Lori and Boone had better Nightbreed forms :/

Overall fine. It's such a. ridiculous premise, you kind of can't help but have fun. I check out a bit near the end tho. Not the books fault, that's more of a me thing.
