While some are CGI, it was great to see some are accomplished only with make-up/puppets/men-in-suits. I think we already have a serious contender for the best monster movie of 2008. The Hellboy comic books, particularly the bulk of the series drawn by Mike Mignola, are some of the best horror comics ever. I've been thinking of starting a Hellboy thread over at the comics board here. Monster Kids just shouldn't be missing out on this stuff.

Just because it looked just too amazing, with so many original monster designs, that I want to see if I can keep it as much as possible to surprise in July. http://movies.yahoo.com/premieres/7254432/standardformat/

I'm happy, but I really loved the "wake the Baby" scene... "It was at that point, that the Guignol became Grand". -- Devlin Waugh

It's not very Hellboy/Mignola but it is very Guillermo Del Toro, which ain't bad at all I'm not saying you guys are wrong, but Mignola developed the story for this movie with del Toro. He's credited as co-writer and co-producer. So, if it isn't like the comic (and Mignola has repeatedly gone on record that he likes the other versions of Hellboy to not totally copy the comic) then the creator of the comic certainly was involved and approving.

Apr 5 08 10:10 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I'm not complaining per se. I realize a straight movie adaptation of the Hellboy comics I love would just have Ron Perlman in Hellboy make up standing around in foggy ruins while various undead beasties talk to him in sing-song. I'd love it personally if it was so, but I do realize it wouldn't be the best use of celluloid... "It was at that point, that the Guignol became Grand". -- Devlin Waugh

Jun 12 08 11:18 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I didn't care for the first Hellboy movie and the second one seems to exaggerate all it's flaws, such as overcrowded frames bristling with high tech effects and non-stop action. The comic book was distinguished by its spare solemnity and its melancholy. It seemed to evoke the sadness of a lonely Catholic upbringing, with a sense of insignificance in the face of ancient monuments, and the ever-present burden of self-recrimination that hangs like a sword over the damned. The stillness of Mignola's compositions said more than all the digital and make-up effects houses in Hollywood can.
