Yesterday I watched this movie adaptation of Vertigo’s venerated Hellblazer series. I’m not going to comment on it, because comic movies are always cursed to simultanously suck and rule, but I do want to comment on director Whatever-his-name-is’s presentation of Hell.
In this film, Hell looks like the regular world, only the air is scorched with fire and hot winds blow everything around and stooped over creatures hobble around en masse, suspiciously eyeing each other and mumbling to themselves:
I’ve seen that before. Heck, I’ve been there before.
It’s Palm Springs, Florida.
Buy The Constantine DVD (Full Screen Edition) and I might get 2 cents!
Pip is a picker, he's a grinner. He's a lover and he's a sinner.
When I was a boy of fourteen my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years.
