Labyrinth

I noticed on the back of the movie case that this director also directed Hell Boy. I really like the first movie, although I have never read the comics. At the end of Pan's Labyrinth when she is lying on the ground and her blood drips into the portal (I know that's a gross description), I noticed that it looked a lot like the part of Hell Boy when the evil blonde girl and that crazy assassin kill that guy in the arctic to bring back their master. Or at least the miniature stone labyrinth on the ground full of blood, they looked very similar to me. Also I liked the part about the mandrake. It reminded me of the mandrakes in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, but I think I like the way the look in Pan's Labyrinth better.
