Darkman

 

A brilliant scientist left for dead returns to exact revenge on the people who burned him alive.

 

“Raimi's live-action comic book aims to deliver scares spiked with laughs. That it does.” – Rolling Stone

 

Liam Neeson and Frances McDormand star in Darkman – the explosive action-packed thriller from director Sam Raimi (Spider-Man).  Dr. Peyton Westlake (Neeson) is on the verge of realizing a major breakthrough in synthetic skin when his laboratory is destroyed by gangsters.  Having been burned beyond recognition and forever altered by an experimental medical procedure, Westlake becomes known as Darkman, assuming alternate identities in his quest for revenge and a new life with a former love (McDormand).
