How do you feel about From Hell?
Overview
From Hell Storyline
From Hell reimagines the Jack the Ripper murders through the eyes of Inspector Frederick Abberline, a troubled detective using opium-fuelled visions to hunt one of history’s most infamous killers. Based on the graphic novel by Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell, the film blends horror, mystery and gothic conspiracy into a dark Victorian thriller. From Hell is a DC Comics screen adaptation from 2001, sitting in the wider Comic Movie DB archive as one of the movie entries that helps connect page-to-screen storytelling beyond the obvious cape-and-cowl crowd. The page is especially useful for readers tracking the people involved, with Heather Graham, Ian Holm, Jason Flemyng, Johnny Depp, Robbie Coltrane among the main names connected to the project. Behind the camera, Albert Hughes, Allen Hughes gives the adaptation its shape, helping define whether it leans more into spectacle, character drama, genre thrills or straight-up comic-book chaos. We have rated this 8 out of 10, which makes it a worthwhile entry to revisit when comparing how well comic properties translate across different studios, eras and audience expectations. For SEO and fan discovery, it belongs here because it adds context to the bigger comic movie timeline: not every adaptation has to be perfect, but each one says something about the genre, the audience it was chasing and the kind of stories studios believed could work on screen.

From Hell Review 8/10
We have rated this 8 out of 10. From Hell is grim, atmospheric and wonderfully fog-drenched. Johnny Depp gives Abberline a strange haunted quality, while the film leans heavily into gothic horror over strict historical accuracy. Alan Moore famously hated the adaptation, which is almost a genre tradition at this point, but as a standalone film it works well. It is stylish, eerie and perfect late-night viewing for anyone who likes their comic adaptations with less spandex and more murder.
