@seinfeldfanatic it's pretty much been lifted from the pages of the comic. Not bad for a low budget effort. If you haven't read the comics, you should check them out if you are into atmospheric/Lovecraftian horror.
@MightyDemon82 Yeah, I think I may, too. I think I'm also going to check out the book(s) at some point as well. Felt like there was a few undercooked plot threads in there that may be more satisfying in the books.
some other time. I just think the last new Hellboy reboot movie is just too weird even for a Hellboy movie. the movie has too much stuff going on with redneck witches, voodoo Crooked Man, every redneck in the woods area know all about the devil where they its normal to see someone like Hellboy to walkin around in the 1940s after World War II. that and a fear sensoring spider is crammed into the movie

@seinfeldfanatic I love the GDT Hellboy movies, I am thankful to him as that's how I became aware of the character. But the film wasn't released in the UK until September of 2009, rather than the April release in the US. So inbeween discovering the film was being made and it's UK release I had read all available comics and have been a fan for over 20 years.
Those first 2 movies are GDT's Hellboy not Mike Mignola's but they are both fun movies if not exactly like the comics.
The David Harbour Hellboy was all over the place and tried cramming too much stuff in one movie. A highlight for me was Stephen Graham playing Gruagach though so it had it's moments.
The Crooked man does Hellboy right though. If I were to nitpick he's missing the yellow eyes. Lower budget aside I thought it was fantastic.

This is how it is in the comics he's out there doing his job fighting monsters often referred to as Mr Boy 🤣. Whilst monsters and demons are constantly telling him they know who and what he is. But he rejects and ignores that until he no longer can.
