Hellboy 2 features all of the grotesque-yet-oddly-beautiful freaks present in del Toro’s other films without any of the “adult” drama. It’s a ridiculous, over-the-top tour-de-force that does what few sequels do: outdoes its predecessor in every way. That’s no slight to Hellboy, by the way.
Hellboy 2 is just that good.
Released in 2008, Hellboy 2 takes a different path than its predecessor. Where the First Hellboy focuses on the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense stopping a Nazi plot to unleash the apocalypse, Hellboy 2 abandons real-world evil altogether and goes all in on mythology. I’m talking Elves, trolls, and an assortment of other magical beings.
A quick warning, though: if you do watch this with your kids, be prepared for them to freak out the next time they lose a tooth. In fact, you might have to abandon the whole “tooth fairy” thing altogether.
