Description

In our final episode of 2022 we are taking a look at the 2004 film adaptation of Hellboy starring Ron Perlman as the titular wielder of the Right Hand of Doom.
We talk about the impact this movie had on the comic book film sub genre upon release and how it faired in a release year full of mainstream adaptations.
Simon talks about how Kevin Smith & Good Charlotte are responsible for his love of Hellboy and how obsessed he was with this film.
Leigh talks about seeing it for the first time, how much she loves the characters and how fun this film is.
We talk about how faithful this film is to the source material and how much influence it takes from Lovecraft and related works.
We discuss the films incredible practical effects and how they hold up really well, even 18 years later.
We get into the world building, the characters, the proposed third film that would have completed the trilogy & also briefly the reboot with David Harbour.
We chat about all of this and lots, lots more in another fun filled episode as we bid farewell to 2022 and prepare for 2023.
