The Hellboy movie that no one has seen is dominated by Hula’s main charts

Last year, “Hellboy: Crooked Man” seemed new low for the demonic hero. The film trailers, shot for a low budget for $ 20 million with little -known actors, suggested that even the scantrous movie funds were stretched. Stupid, as the utensils’ coloring, was particularly disappointing for the adaptation of comics known for their bright arts. “Curve Man” ultimately missed the theatrical release in the US, went directly to VOD on October 8, 2024.

It seemed that this would be the shameful end of the “Hellboy” movies for a while – maybe not, because Hula’s audience came to the rescue of the big edit. According to Flixpatrol“Hellboy: Crooked Man” made his debut on No. 1 on the Sitside platform on March 10, 2025 and stayed there before dropping on No. 4 as of March 13.

Directed by Brian Taylor “Hellboy: Crooked Man” was co -authored with his director, creator of Hellboy, Mike Miniol and his frequent creative partner Christopher Golden. This is directly adapted Hellboy “Hellboy” mini series “Hellboy” This was published in 2008 and painted by the late Richard Corben. Both the film, and the comic version of the “Kryvy person” are installed in the rural apolochiy about the 1950s (1958 in the comic book, 1959 in the film), and it is the early days of Helboy as a paranormal research and protection bureau (BPRD) agent. The story stems from Hellboy (Jack Kesy) when he confronts the witch and undead with Tom Ferrell (Jefferson White), a native son who once concluded a pact with a witch of the Kolb (Lia McNamara).

The villain of the same name is Jeremia Vitkins (Martin Basindal), the 19th century pistol and the alcoholic beverage trader that met his end, which hung from the tree. There were many rich people in hell, so the devil sent him back to the ground to steal the souls. The neck of the ghostly Vitkins is still bent from the shape from the loop; Hence the “crooked man”.

I don’t think any movie about Hellboy has a pretty nailed miniol and ko.But this has a stamp of miniol approval. In 2023 at Instagram PostHe wrote that he liked what he saw from daily films and promised: “If the fans were waiting for the movie Hellboy, who actually was the adaptation of one of my stories, I think they will finally get it.”

Does the end movie rise over all the negative advertising? This is not a masterpiece, and crafts pale (unfinished) Guillermo Del Torah “Helbay” movies, But it is also not a hack. “Curve Man” at least cares about being a good movie “Hellboy”.

Watching “Hellboy: Crooked Man”, even a registered $ 20 million budget feels too high.

Hellboy Kesy makeup looks great enough, even when the lighting of the night scenes is bent red color. However digital monsters? They look and move as convincingly as CGI from the original Syfy 2009.

But the Hellboy movie does not necessarily need a big budget. The 30-year-old Hellboy comics include a lot of shooting and stories. Read enough and you will notice a similar formula: Hellboy arrives at a new place, run into a ghost or monster, wins it and leaves. That is why I think that “Hellboy” TV shows, in particular, animated for adults, which can found their views on the comic art of Minioli is an idea that flows with unused potential.

I am sure, There are several epics HellboyLike Duncan Figrad “trilogy calls” trilogy “, which movie” Hellboy “2019 tried to adapt. Margetson, even a snake from her body as a ghostly sharyl (Ellen Sanwis) in the second act, and Co.

But Brian Taylor is not Sam Raim and John Carpenter. To be honest, “Krivoi” needed more resources or anyone with the best fantasy for the limited. As is, the movie floats on horrible vibrations, but it cannot reach higher. However, these vibrations need fun.

Jack Kesie has the right attitude as Hellboy. I will not say he is a better actor than the past Hellboys Ron Perlman or David Harbour, but Hellboy Kesy is written more than a comic character. He is a rough and blue collars without comedy of the pearlman and Harbara Hellboys; No jokes, just some cheese hero. When he feels that the forest does not rest and warns that “dark things call for dark things”, Cessi provides it with fatigue and on its own as Hellboy should; He always hated that he was born a monster, and so he lives as a man.

The “Kriva Man” commissioner is a Ferrelo’s journey; Hellboy is as an auxiliary guide. The movie, on the other hand, makes Hellboy a more active hero who is more directly responsible for the defeat of Vitkins. In the movie Hellboy gets Killshot, which causes the Vitkins skull to explode on a penny (apparently all the souls of his victims were worth). However, it also removes the coldest comic string line, where Hellbo and Tom wonders when, killing Vitkins, they released these souls or just sent them to hell with their master.

The movie also brings to another BPRD agent, Bobby Joe Song (Adeline Rudolph), so Hellboy has extra investment out of the live. This is not a big novel like in Hellboy Perlman Firestarter Liz Sherman (Selma Blair) in Del Tora’s movies; Only two people find comfort in the horrific circumstances.

To add the meat to the comics brevity, the movie is overtaken to look at the past Hellboy. His mother, Sarah Hughes, was a witch of the 16th century, which gave birth after her curse. These scenes catch up with those who are not familiar with Hellboy and do not drag the story. The first vision of his mother Hellboy caused by a poisonous snake bite is one of the most atmospheric movies.

If you are not already a fan of Hellboy, “curves” is not a promising introduction. If you There is, Although, you will probably like 90 minutes, watching it.

“Hellboy: Curve Man” goes to Hula.
