Really? How is that an "impossible choice?" You could either save the fabric of the world, and therefore countless existences...or not.
Oh yes, it's a terrible dilemma.

-MAKE YOUR CHOICE MORTAL
Dr. Brock Quinn looked up at the creature of unimaginable hatred and sin.
-Um. Hmm. Well I don't know. What do you mean by 'save it'?
-HUMAN MAKE YOUR CHOICE
-Well okay but 'save' it like... save it as it is? Can I save it in a better state? Maybe replenish the coral reefs a bit.
-WHAT IS 'REEF'?
-Oh just a complex interchange between marine species and a certain kind of polyp-
-SHUT UP!
-What about ice cream?
-ICED CREAM? The creature's voice echoed through the distant corners of dying universes.
-Ice cream. Singular. If I save the world will there still be ice cream? I noticed it's pretty hot where we are now, I wanted to make sure you'd remember about ice cream.
-THE WORLD WILL BE IF YOU SAY... JUST... SAY!
-Oh everything but cherry. Can I save everything but cherry?
-RRRRRR

I'd always thought some of Clive Barker's stories could make good movies, but with the exception of hellraiser I never saw a good one and even that in retrospect had a few issues. Midnight meat train was an excellent little film, I thought, and if this is too, then well hell that's a trend ;)

Not as sorry as Clive Baker, who just lost his shot at fame. ;)

Looked great, but the story was a incoherent patchwork mess, with some of the worst contrived dialogue coming out of cardboard characters that you gave not a whit about.
The stunt-casting of Cronenberg didn't help, either.

I would like very much to see more Clive Barker works turned into films as long as they were not directed by Clive Barker.
As a side note there was at one time suppose to be an animated film of "The Thief of Always" (my favorite book as a youth) that I guess must of perished in development purgatory.
