Entertainment Reviews:

New York Times - 08/24/1990

"...An ambitious and self-consciously old-fashioned film....Terrific effects..."

Entertainment Weekly - 07/14/1995

"...A hilarious homage to comic-book superheroes..." -- Rating: B+

Los Angeles Times - 08/24/1990

"...[The film] successfully captures the graphic look, rhythm and style of the super-hero books....DARKMAN somehow stays in a comic-book universe: a world of satire and swoony self-caricature..."

Product Description:

A scientist on the verge of a major discovery in synthetic skin is burned beyond recognition when his laboratory is demolished by a sadistic gang. Altered by an experimental medical procedure, the man known as Darkman begins to assume alternate identities and seeks revenge against his assailants.

Plot Synopsis:

A scientist disfigured by a gang of sadistic criminals develops a mask-like second skin which allows him to change identities. Peyton Westlake, his face hidden behind bandages, is transformed into the Darkman, a lonely psycho who prowls the streets of Los Angeles by night. Disguised as different characters, the Darkman seeks out the men who ruined him and exacts brutal revenge.
