From Hell should return to Hell

Rating: Null/10 (28 July 2004)

I'm a big fan of Alan Moore's works. He's written some of the most brilliant graphic novels I've ever read, such as "Watchmen", "V for Vendetta" and "From Hell". To me Alan Moore is the Philip K Dick of graphic Novels -- a true master.
When I rented From Hell I was, of course, quite convinced that it wouldn't be able to live up to the very high standards set by the graphic novel, but never, not even in my wildest dreams, could I have expected the movie to be such a worthless piece of crap as it is. I didn't even finish watching it, and I ask myself why I didn't follow my gut and avoided it for good.
I feel sorry for Mr Moore, because if this is what screen writers do to his stories, few, if any, will read the graphic novels... Read them instead and let From Hell return to Hell.
