Episode description
The marketing campaign for Sam Raimi's 1990 action/horror movie tantalized moviegoers with the question: "Who is Darkman?" But from the studio's point of view, the bigger mystery was probably what is Darkman?From pre-production all the way to release, there was quite a bit of confusion over the tone Raimi was aiming for. As a result, the film found itself in a tug-of-war between a director who was trying to deliver something more transgressive and executives who were attempting to turn this into a more straightforward superhero story.
The end result might not completely represent Raimi's original vision, but Darkman retains enough of his signature style for us to declare it a very underrated entry on his filmography.
