Hellboy is a Good Guy


I don't care what you say, I'm a fan of the Hellboy movies. Never got into the comics but when the movies came out I was hooked instantly. Great special fx, great cinematography from director Guillermo Del Toro and of course John Hurt. It never hurts to have John Hurt in your movie.
Hellboy stumbles through life as an outsider so he can feel your pain when life has dealt you a shitty hand or one that's a giant club.
Ron Perlman who plays Hellboy on the big screen just scored some serious awesome points in my book over this past weekend. Perlman joined with the Make A Wish Foundation to give a dying little boy his last wish, hang out with Hellboy for a day. Perlman put on all the make-up and costume just to sit and have a burger with his biggest fan. Young Zachary met up with the demon spawn at Spectral Motion make-up studios to don his own hellish costume. He was outfitted with the red make-up and his own sawed-off horns. From there Hellboy treated his fan and his family to a lunch of burgers and shakes and just hung out and talked shop about the movies and what Hellboy does on his days off. Hopefully the kid pulls through and is able to win the fight against his infliction with a little help from Hellboy and his army of cats.
