In other words, the same plot as Scooby-Doo 2. Del Toro’s previous comic book film, Blade II. The character of Hellboy...

I'm not the hugest Troma fan out there, truth be told most of their stuff bores me to tears (shock comedy tends to have this effect on me though I do kind of like the first two Toxic Avenger. Films) but every now and then you will find a good one. When Nature Calls. Is a clever spoof of wilderness adventures in the same vein as Airplane! And The Naked Gun. Craig t. nelson. My Fa...
