Just saw Hellboy (in part) for the first time last night. You know, I think Ron Perlman may have modeled his performance of Hellboy on John Turner...

Everybody knows that anyone who's a big fan of/plays prog rock is a pure pasty white from never being exposed to sunlight. |

Need any more proof?
They obviously took artistic license and used JT's infamous red shirt as an inspiration for Hellboy's red skin.
