Despite a limited budget, I found the movie to be very inspired and well done. I thought the acting was solid and was genuinely creeped out for most of the movie. It isn’t the best adaptation of the character in my opinion—I think the animated movies Sword of Storms and Blood and Iron hold that title—but I think it’s a solid dark horror movie take on the character and enjoyed it much more than the 2019 adaption.

What did others think?

    Solid take! I also found the horror line well done and liked Kesy in the role.

    I would still like to see an animated anthology approach for Hellboy moving forward though. It would give them the opportunity to adapt a lot of the original stories and maybe steer closer to the comic aesthetic.

    With that said, I think the filmmakers of the recent film did about as good as they could with the limited budget.
