A Story to Tell: Clive Barker's The Forbidden is an intriguing dive into the mind of Barker, focusing on his early works that shaped horror literature. Douglas E. Winter guides us through the nuances of Barker's style, particularly how Books of Blood laid the groundwork for Candyman's haunting mythology. The pace is contemplative, allowing viewers to really sit with the themes of fear and identity that Barker explores. The atmosphere is rich, almost palpable, with a blend of nostalgia and reverence for the source material. It's not about flashy visuals or over-the-top effects, but rather an exploration of storytelling and what it means to terrify and inspire. If you're into the roots of horror and appreciate a well-crafted documentary, it’s a solid watch.
