This
weekend
we are feeling devilish and are wearing our Bruce's She Devil
hats. We are bringing you the weekend from Hell...Hellboy, that
is.


Hellboy
is based on the comic character and despite his name, HB
is the good guy/hero. Ron Perlman in the role of HB was fantastic
and he'll be back reprising the role in Hellboy
2.
For
heroic roles, an actor must have charisma, presence and an aura of
commanding authority. Mr. Perlman displayed all this in his role as HB.
Bruce knows very well how to project intensity, power and authority.
Therefore, we think Ron and Bruce would make a great dynamic duo in the
fight for good!
Ron
Perlman was 53 at the time Hellboy
was made in 2004. He
became the oldest actor ever to play a major superhero! And he's back a
second time and we are looking forward to it - and we sure would
love to see Bruce amongst the scenery too!
This
just further proves the statement, "you don't get older, you get
better"!
Israfel
and Devecia have put together a short photostory to show how well Ron
and Bruce look together.

Giving you more HELL, we have the article on Hellborn/Asylum of the Damned from Fangoria # 219. It includes a
number of comments by Bruce.
The author of the article describes this movie as "Alien meets One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and
it's an apt appraisal. We describe it as Psycho meets The Snake Pit.* This
film giving new meaning to several DSM** categories, including
Schizotypal Personality Disorder, Schizophrenia, and
Paranoia. Whew!
