“Wasn’t a massive fan of the original – thought it was a bit dull even if it did feature nature’s perfect baddie, supernatural Nazis – but at least it was very “Hellboy.” The Golden Army looks exactly like Pan’s Labyrinth with Hellboy instead of a little Spanish girl. To be completely honest, we find Del Toro’s imagination overrated, especially considering one of his new characters for the film is called “Cathedral Head” and has a cathedral for a head. We’re sorry, but there’s only one creature allowed to have a totemic building for a noggin, and that’s Pyramid Head.”

This column has actually made me wonder if Pyramid Head was a kind of in-joke at Konami. After all, they’d put Moai heads into a lot of their games (famously Gradius) – so why not have a “pyramid head”?

It’s a possibility!
