Didn't see Constantine.  I have seen a few "hell" related flicks.   There 
are lots of 'B' budget variations on the theme.   After a bit of thought, 
almost all that I've seen seem to have a (so-called) catholic hell theme. 
The one that I've seen the entire series to that kinda breaks the mold is 
the Hellraiser movies.   Yeah, it's still in the 'catholic hell theme', but 
with a decidedly Franciscan (dark ages) flavor.   Have you seen these Inglo? 
It's a strong and loooong story.  I think there are four, maybe five now. 
Jaws gave me nightmares.  So did these for a while.  Even Nighmare On Elm 
Streets  Freddy Kruger is a bad apple out of hell.
Doom3 was scary, but at a deep level for me.  Seeing the woman lying on the 
floor, dying.... and the Lost Soul rips out of her head... that one got to 
me.  The movie Doom had the right 'entry level' creatures.  For the wrong 
reasons.  The story was changed fundamentally.  Call it 'Doom Lite', if you 
will.
