Goofs

When Dylan takes the handgun from the disgruntled husband early in the film, he is shown making the weapon safe. However, by racking the slide BEFORE ejecting the magazine, this would eject a cartridge but immediately replace it with another. So unless the businessman came with only one bullet, the gun would still have a bullet left in the chamber.

Quotes

Marcus: So, what's the plan?
Dylan Dog: No plan. Just bigger guns.

Why? Oh why?!

Who doesn't know, Dylan Dog is one of "Bonelli's" characters (Italian "comic-factory") and, like many others "in-house" characters (Martin Mystere, Nathan Never,...), he is a product of...believe it or not...movies! Any classic and really known horror movie is in Dylan Dog comics - Living Dead (saga), Shining, Terminator, vampires, werewolves,... So, how to make a movie from a comic that is made from a movie(s)? Well, I bet it is possible but .... Did any of guys who were working on this movie actually read any comic of Dylan Dog?! He is detective for supernatural, an English from London, his partner is Groucho, all comics are made in really "horror-mood" so why... a comedy?!? This movie is lousy and completely....wrong! For sure, not for fans of Dylan Dog :( Hope one day somebody will make "a real" Dylan Dog movie!
