Imagine a time when the biggest action star in the world wasn’t some musclebound dude with an oiled-up chest wearing a loincloth, but rather a tall, slim guy whose catch phrase was “whoa.” If you’re imagining Keanu Reeves, good; if you’re imagining him as John Wick, you gotta go back further, to the Matrix days of the early 00s. Now, imagine that he and a young Shia LaBeouf are kickass exorcists and the guy from Bush is a demon. Seriously! That might’ve been the elevator pitch for CONSTANTINE (2005). Based on the comic book Hellblazer in the most superficial ways, this one might be a contentious pick for those who don’t consider it horror, but it’s our show and we say angels, demons and sick forearm sigil tatz give it a pass.
