Hellboy (2004)
3 quotes
Directed by: Guillermo del Toro
Starring: John Hurt, Ron Perlman, Jeffrey Tambor, Selma Blair
Continuity mistake: Hellboy tosses Dr. Manning through the quickly-closing door to escape the pendulum on the bridge - he barely makes it under. Hellboy then spends thirty seconds dodging the pendulum, but when he dives for the door it's still closing at the same point and speed - just enough for him to pass. (01:30:55)
Trivia: The BPRD complex was (according to Del Toro) was originally FDR's secret emergency bunker. The library where Professor Broom dies was the president's office and Hellboy's room (with the big vault door) was his fallout shelter, just in case Germany perfected the A-bomb first.
Question: Why does Kroenen turn that key on his body? I thought it would be to help increase his speed but, he is very fast without turning it.
Answer: The internal machinery that powers him is clockwork. It needs to be wound like a watch every so often. He releases most of the tension when he fakes his death.
