Movie Review

Grade: C- Spawn has incredibly graphics. They may not look real but they look cool. John Leguizamo as Clown proves what a tremendous job they did on the makeup; you can't recognize him. As for the rest of the movie, it just sucked. Spawn's action was meager in suspense/ The story was dull, Clown got old real fast, and Michael White was bad. Acting stunk and to put it plainly, Spawn was just as bad as the comic book. Read the full movie review

Spawn Gone Wrong, by Hell Fan

April 7, 2004

Sorry, after all this time I dought their would be. Something must have went wrong somewhere along the lines during the time they annouced years ago that they were going to produce a sequel. It just likely isn't going to happen. Not after all this time. Though I'm sure Todd McFarlane had his reasons.
