Stop whinging about the village and go and see Hellboy, dreadful title, ace film.
wins the best 'horrible nazi's' and best 'portal to another dimension', catagories. The references to other films are also the best as they are natural and unforced, as is the humour.
I think the dark atmosphere at least equals the much lauded 'Tim Burtons Batman'.
And the special effects are effortless, the best 'nice' surprise in cinema since 'Pirates of the Carribean'
Just go and see it on a big screen, and hate me if you don't enjoy it.
