I heard Sam Raimi made this movie because he wasn't able to secure the rights to adapt either The Shadow and Batman. Though on a tangent, I find it a pity he wasn't able to direct Batman 3 (following Burton's departure after Returns); looking at Darkman, he could've made a great story with Two Face.
And we all can recall what a disappointment it was that Forever didn't even bother to show Two Face's origins save for a shoddy news clip.
@RavnDream I have heard that as well. I have only seen Batman Forever once (And that was when it was still in theaters). That was enough for me so I don't remember much about it.
What did y'all think of the other two that came out. Thoughtthey were good (enough) cause it give Payton more of the "I still want to continue my research" aspect but also gave him more of the "I need to do good" aspect. Plus I also liked the guy from the first two mummy movies (with Brendon) playing Payton. Thought that there were differences like Liam had more of the 'superhero' part and the other guy had more of the scienist par of Payton.
@samus7321 I will have a review of Darkman 2 online soon. I haven't seen the third one in a LONG time...but I remember liking it about as much as the second one.
Great video, really well put togethor. I just have one question, (because I am watching the film at this moment, because I rented it) When does Bruce Campbell come into the film?
Darkman was really great Action/SCI-Fi movie - reminds me The Shadow (1994) and Spawn (1997). Liam Neeson and Frances McDormand were great.. Even SCI-FI movies were much better in the 90's
I have no interest in a remake.

@MovieMan9991 Wow, I hope you're not watching the movie just for him. He's in it for about .5 seconds at the very end.

Good review. The last one I heard was from SpikeJet and needless to say I didn't care for it.
