Ouch, Hellboy reboot currently holds 13% on Rotten Tomatoes

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

Director Neil Marshall's HELLBOY reboot starring David Harbour as the titular red guy is all set to punch its ungodly way into a theater near you starting tomorrow (with preview screenings tonight). The MPAA slapped the movie with a hard R-rating "strong bloody violence and gore throughout and language" and today we have a new poster that boasts the rating loud and clear. 

Oh, and the reviews are in. And they are not good. Turns out this reboot currently only holds a 13% rating over on Rotten Tomatoes with the site's Critics Consensus currently reading: Bereft of the imaginative flair that made earlier Hellboys so enjoyable, this soulless reboot suggests Dante may have left a tenth circle out of his Inferno.

Damn. You can check out the new Rated R poster below and then let us know what you think of the current scathing HELLBOY reviews after that. Written by Andrew Cosby, Christopher Golden, Aron Coleite, and Hellboy creator Mike Mignola, this one finds Hellboy:

along with his team of paranormal researchers, trying to save the world from a medieval sorceress who wants to destroy humankind. 

Church and Harbour's co-stars include Milla Jovovich as the villainous Nimue, Queen of Blood, Ian McShane as Hellboy's mentor Professor Broom, Sasha Lane as his love interest Alice Monaghan, Penelope Mitchell as the elder witch Ganeida, Daniel Dae Kim as Major Ben Daimio (who can turn into a jaguar), Sophie Okonedo as the seer Lady Hatton, Alistair Petrie as Lord Adam Glaren of the supernatural mystery investigating Osiris Club, and Brian Gleeson as the wizard Merlin. The HELLBOY reboot is all set to punch its ungodly way into a theater near you starting tomorrow April 12, 2019.
