Episode #122 – Hellboy II: The Golden Army
Kae Wilson from the Call Us Casters podcast sits down with Perry to discuss Hellboy II: The Golden Army. An original story written by Gulliermo del Toro, it's a movie that unfortunately didn't do as well as the first Hellboy film and ultimately resulted in an incomplete trilogy. We revisit Ron Perlman's excellent performance, Doug Jones stepping up to take on the voice of Abe Sapien, and how this movie proves del Toro needs to make a steampunk film.
