Heck Boy

So I finally watched HellBoy last night.

Now I know that most people have said that this movie was crap and different things like that, but I still wanted to see it, maybe just because I have aweak spot for Ron Perlman and anything to do with Rasputin comming back to life. Either way I think that the comic book this movie was based upon is probably great, the movie on the other hand was not that great.

Not that it didn't have it's moments or anything like that, but the ending felt way too weak and thrown together. The climactic battles scenes weren't.

Now I'm not, what you might call, a Lovecraft fan, or one who has much knowledge of things Lovecraftian or Cthulhianbut I was savy enough to recognize Cthulhu (on an homage to it) when I see it (if I'm not, how embarassing). BUT if I did not have this knowledge I would probably wonder why the all these "gods" just seemed to look like squids, which would probably take away from their evil scarriness.

Either way if you have not seen this movie, and sorta like comics or movies with Rasputin then I would say rent it. You will not be blown away, but I don't think you'll be that dissapointed.
