This movie rules. Excellent special effects, Sam Raimi doing his thing, the score, all of it.
The sequels…not so good.

Such a fun, campy movie where you get to see Neeson ham it up. Also worth a watch is The Quick & the Dead (1995) with young Leonardo DiCaprio and a pre Gladiator Russell Crowe. Visually, both are shot very much like a comic, which certainly helped Raimi to eventually land the Spider-Man series.
I enjoyed it, my only real beef is the character origin is essentially the same as Swamp Thing… but whatever. It was fun!
RLM is talking about this movie is my only really experience with it. I often watch them take about movies I’ve never, and likely will never see.

If anyone mentions Darkman to me, the first thing I have to say is, “Take the fucking elephant!” 😆
