GriffeyHOST
funny because he's mostly worked in his own kind of realms.
GriffeyHOST
But then if you think about it, Hellboy was IP.
GriffeyHOST
Frankenstein.
GriffeyHOST
Frankenstein's LP.
DJ NickHOST
We have the reversal of the mean girl trope and two characters who reveal who they truly are.
DJ NickHOST
We have, of course, Selma Blair as Vivian Kensington, who I loved, of course, in the two Hellboy movies.
DJ NickHOST
Victor Garber as Aaron Callahan.
DJ NickHOST
And, of course, Matthew Davis as Warner Huntington III.
24 MINS LATER
Rachel FriendHOST
Which, I mean, considering Elle showed up specifically to chase Warner, Vivian has every reason to be concerned.
Rachel FriendHOST
You know, this woman is kind of here to... take her man, but after a while, Elle's priorities shift, and so do Vivian's.
DJ NickHOST
This is very true, and to piggyback off what you were saying, Rachel, I'll start with Vivian, because I love Selma Blair and everything she's been in, as I mentioned, I love the two Hellboy movies, especially...
DJ NickHOST
I do think she's one of the most interesting characters in the film because she initially seems like she's going to be the stereotypical rival because she's intimidating and serious and accomplished and clearly not interested in making Elle's transition into this new world any easier.
DonovanHOST
Yeah, it kind of reminded me of this monster way cooler, but I can't remember the name of it.
DonovanHOST
It's the monster from the first Hellboy.
DonovanHOST
What's it called? It's called like a semi L.
DonovanHOST
Yeah, it reminded me kind of of that when it was when that one was on all fours.
DonovanHOST
It looked very similar, but that monster was a guy in a suit.
DonovanHOST
That's what I was about to say.
DonovanHOST
The one in Hellboy was a dude in a suit.
DonovanHOST
It was way cooler.
Jessie EarlHOST
A- and I think that excited everyone at the time.
Jessie EarlHOST
We were like, "Del Tor- Del Toro doing a Hobbit? Hell yeah." 'Cause this, this was before he did, like, Shape of Water and stuff, but he had done, like, Hellboy.
Kim RenfroHOST
Pan's Labyrinth?
Jessie EarlHOST
He had done, like, some-
Dave TreeGUEST
who was the storyboard artist for Rogue One.
Dave TreeGUEST
And Duncan is a legend in the comics world, best known for carrying forward Mike Mignola's Hellboy comic book artwork and ongoing series.
Dave TreeGUEST
But he's worked on dozens of other things as well.
Dave TreeGUEST
I mean, he really is a legend in British comics design.
KarlHOST
Yep.
KarlHOST
Norman Cabrera, he's done From Dusk Till Dawn, the Hellboy movies.
KarlHOST
Gremlins 2, Harry and the Hendersons.
RachaelHOST
So
Ria FendHOST
Yeah
Greg KnoxHOST
... playing, which is crazy, and Audition, and Guillermo del Toro was one of the first people to kinda champion the festival, so Hellboy played at Fright Fest, and then Pan's Labyrinth played at the festival.
Ria FendHOST
Yeah.
Ria FendHOST
Oldboy as well.
AlexGUEST
And one more thing that gets kind of glossed over with that whole thing is that they were also super into the occult, right? Like, I'm sure you've seen, like...
AlexGUEST
Hellboy or any of the movies where they show them in some stone castle and they're trying to just open up a portal to wherever.
AlexGUEST
Some
Ron SwansonHOST
gothic scenery, for sure.
PeterHOST
But I wanted to shout them out.
PeterHOST
I went with Hellboy one and two, both of the Guillermo del Toro directed Hellboy movies.
PeterHOST
And these ones I picked just because I love like all of the characters.
PeterHOST
Whether it's makeup, whether it's creature design, whether it's special effects.
PeterHOST
And he really prioritizes practical effects in his movies.
PeterHOST
Up until today, we can see his recent Frankenstein adaptation and how much practical effects they used and stuff.
PeterHOST
But the Hellboy movies...
PeterHOST
I've always loved, there's some of my favorite films and just really, really stunning, like just makeup and creature effects.
speaker_6HOST
Then there's Radio Spaceman, optioned in April 2026.
speaker_6HOST
This is by Mike Mignola, the creator of Hellboy.
speaker_6HOST
It's about a remote-controlled robotic spaceman dropped onto a hostile gothic planet full of ancient temples and monsters.
speaker_5HOST
Mignola's heavily shadowed, highly geometric art style practically demands animation, right?
