The next installment in the Hellboy franchise, The Crooked Man, seems to be bypassing theaters in the US and heading straight to digital.

While the movie is getting a theatrical release in the UK, it looks like you’ll be able to watch it on VOD in the US from October 8 at 12am ET, or 9pm PT on October 7 (H/T ComicBook.com). It seems the US won’t be getting a theatrical release at all.

If you’re wondering if the new movie is worth checking out on VOD, our own three star Hellboy: The Crooked Man review verdict reads: “Hellboy: The Crooked Man embraces the comics’ folk-horror vibe but the balance of atmosphere and ass-kicking is slightly off.”

    I love Hellboy, but something felt off about the trailer I saw. I even joked with my wife that it looked like a made for TV movie. There has been virtually zero advertising for it, which has never been a good sign.
