Constantine: City of Demons - The Movie

John Constantine is a British supernatural detective who drinks, smokes, and carries heavy guilt from a failed spell. His old friend Chas asks him to save Chas’s daughter Trish, whose soul has been stolen while her body lies in a coma. John travels from London to Los Angeles and faces demons, an ancient death god, and the living spirit of the city. The film uses bloody fights, rude jokes, sex, and a bleak supernatural mood, but it also follows a strong family bond and the cost of trying to fix past sins.

The clearest identity-related element is John’s open sexual nature, which includes sex with Angela, the spirit of Los Angeles, and fits the character’s wider bisexual history. The film keeps that identity in the background while the rescue plot centers on family love, guilt, friendship, and sacrifice. The women hold important roles as a healer, a mother, and the living spirit of a city, while John remains the main hero. The story treats deals with evil as dangerous and gives John a painful price for saving the child.
