The very first Rated R ccomicbook hero movie.Theres a comic that has Darkman meeting Ash from "Army of Darkness"I know what you're thinking"Hail To The King Baby"
The best comic book movie that wasn't based on any comic book is The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension. They have tons of Easter eggs throughout the film for everyone who reads the comic books and knows all the deep lore about buckaroo banzai. Except... nobody has read the comic books, because they don't exist. The film is packed with all this deep lore that's just all made up for the film and never was intended to actually be anything. They even promise a sequel at the end of the film even though they knew there'd never be a sequel. It's just brilliant And of course as everyone knows, Buckaroo Banzai has _THE_ best end credits scene of any movie. Just go look it up on RUclips, just search "buckaroo banzai end credits" to see what I mean
I watched this in 1999 when I was 10 years old...I still remember..watched in hbo..loved Liam.neeson so much in this..this movie is more of emotional.sad ..my golden childhood
@@bernaydaughterof5phantomso351 They didn't ask for your input on what your favourite Liam film was 😂 shut up. He said what his fav film is. If he wanted to mention those other films he would've included them.
We must be the same age and have the same style of father lol. He wasn't the type to watch a movie alone whether it be horror or violent, so from the age of 4 I would watch movies with him often with my fingers over my eyes 😂😂😂😂
Dark Man is a underrated Comic Book Movie. I'm getting exhausted from all these remakes/reboots that Hollywood have been doing these days. However, I would not mind if they did a Dark Man remake.
With Sam Raimi back in the spotlight with Dr. Strange, there are now talks of a true Darkman sequel with Raimi. Liam had always said that he would do it if the script was right. Being a 60+ year old action star, no problem there!
turns 30 today! I saw it a few years back on tv. A lot of people forget this was Sam Raimi's first comic book movie pre-Spider-Man. Shame though he doesn't want to revisit it since it was a tough time for him as a director. Liam Neeson does a great job playing a man who takes on many faces using synthetic skin. Amazing makeup effects, crazy camera angles, great score by Danny Elfman, and great bloody violence. Has that classic monster movie tragedy angle going for it too particularly Phantom of the Opera. The interesting thing is Universal actually snuck behind the filmmakers backs and edited the final product down. Thankfully the movie still worked and made no. 1 at the box office when it came out. The success spawned many books, video games, action figures, even an unaired tv pilot. I'm very happy without this movie and Spider-Man the Marvel Cinematic Universe would never have come about.
This trailer always brings back memories. Great movie. I remember it being on the VHS tape of Tremors. I watch Tremors so many times as a kid that the darkman trailer is imprinted in my mind. All great memories
1:14 _"In the darkest hour, there's a light that shines on every human being.... _*_BUT ONE!_*_ "_ It *ALWAYS* gives me goosebumps and brings tears to my eyes.
I was 22 yrs old when I saw this trailer it was in toronto ontario canada I thought this is awesome I must see that When it was released I saw Darkman in the theater. That's right it had a theatrical release my friends hated it said it was crap but i saw what sam rammi was doing it later became as ramieisims the zooms mointages the wooshes if you watch darkman and then spider-man you will see hints and shadows of his technique.
I remember seeing this trailer before the Arnold Scwarzenneger movie, "Total Recall" in 1990 and thinking, "Damn! I'd rather see this movie now instead!" Well I did a month later and LOVED it. This has got to be one of the best movie trailers ever.
There is fundamental problem with the Acid scene. You don't push someone in the acid like as if it was simple water. Because when you do, acid will splash into you too.
0:52 This theme of music is so great but I can't find it. Even poking around the soundtrack / score online. Is it in the soundtrack but I missed it somehow?
Perhaps someone else has mentioned it already, but I love the use of James Horner's score from 'Brainstorm' in this 'Darkman' trailer and it's one of reasons I saw the movie in a theatre in 1990 when it was released and the movie itself had a great Danny Elfman score. :)
Darkman just didn't get the epic stories he deserved. When he first hit the scene he was a fresh and completely fascinating hero. He came, he saw, he kicked some evil @$$, then he faded away. ☹️
Can somebody please tweet Sam Raimi and tell him we need a updated 2024-25 version of this movie with Liam Neeson reprising his role as Darkman! Thank you kindly! 🙏🏼
Wow I had no idea dark man was a super hero that endured damage on his whole body and face that scarred him even his face for life I wonder if the lab accident gave him power smh poor guy,the bad guys that destroyed his life I bet had paid a lawful price
A lot people say that the Spider-Man trilogy with Tobey McGuire was directed by Sam Raimi. But this movie looks really interesting and it’s has Master Qui Gonn known as Ras Al Gruel.
i love to root for neeson in this film yet there are things about this film that make you have empathy for neeson and sympathize with the scenarios: 1. the fact that peyton westlake should have focused more on his relationship with julie than how the fact that durant (larry drake) comes in and annoys everyone, 2. durant is basically like a poor man's version of the villian joker that jack nicholson plays in batman, except for, the hero has the accident and not the bad guy had both durant and westlake had gotten in that same accident, things would have been different durant would look more like how nicholson did in batman, and neeson would have survived the accident without any bruises, thus making the westlake character more likely to be able to carry out a similar batman like code that not only protects julie, but makes certain that westlake was able to take down durant and his goons and bring them in to the police

I saw Darkman when i was six years old and its still one of my favorite Sam Raimi movies.
I was 7 years old when i saw this movie. Still i can remember :)
Bring back childhood memories :)
I went to see it with my dad when I was 11. Good memories! :)
sks shawon my dad had this vhs
Same
Wow, haha, that does NOT seem like an appropriate movie for a 7 year old! Don't they cut a guy's thumb off with a cigar cutter?
@@charleswood2066 big deal. The old cartoons that kids grew up watching are so violent when you watch them as a adult.

yeah i remember how much it made me feel for the lead character
@lowlowseesee the same as that. He became a lost soul in the film
All of these comments... born in 91, felt the same
Good movie. Batman checks his closet for Darkman.
He hadn't learned his particular set of skills at this point yet.
😂😂 i came to look for this comment!!
Sam Raimi, Liam Neeson or Darkman
Growing up seeing movie trailers like these instantly got me hooked on movies
This has got to be my favorite Liam Neeson Film
@Grand Funk don't forget "Batman Begins" and the "Taken" trilogy.

if you don't watch them you would be getting exhausted.
This will be interesting and i know they went to does a spawn reeboot
Hollywood would just ruin it like they are with all their woke pandering. They would probably cast a black pansexual transgender deerkin as Darkman.

WHAT comic book?
Just to echo everyone else; yes, this film is underrated.

Sounds like Raimis coming back!
“Now, crime has a new enemy and justice has a brand new face.”

One of the best Movie Tag lines EVER!!!
Shouldn't that be "faces"? ;)

I saw it late, but it's this movie that confirmed the talent of Sam Raimi for comic-book adaptation
I still love this movie!!!
You can see a lot of similarly between darkman and Spider-man 1 & 2
And 3 with the fight at the construction sight.
Same director too
@@blemon8225 That was his point.
Spider Man 1 & 2, what Spider Man 1 & 2 , is it 1989 and 1991?

He hadn’t quite figured out how to construct his lightsaber yet here . But shortly after . It was on
Am I the only one who thinks this is a better Sam Raimi superhero movie than a certain other Sam Raimi superhero movie?
Yes, you are not alone
Hard question
Naw, keep as is . Total recall new movie was terrible compared to the original
0:23 I love that he was being sponged through the bandages hah

Had no idea liam neeson been in movies this long
He was in a movie called Excalibur that came out in 1981/1982.
@@darelljackson4132definitely right ✅ about that 👌

One of my personal favorites
Rewind and watch over and over again.

We need a remake with Liam Neeson
The great late Don Lafontaine's voice! Always made me enthusiastic about seeing a movie
I completely forgot Liam Neeson was in this movie need watch this again it's been years

I hope you love Total Recall though too. Lol.
@@NeoConnor1 exactly. That's a classic
I have the NES game of this.
It's surprisingly good!

I loved this movie. After the 89 Batman, this was all the rage back then.
There is fundamental problem with the Acid scene. You don't push someone in the acid like as if it was simple water. Because when you do, acid will splash into you too.
This is a really good superhero movie. Great job, Sam Raimi!
Yeah The Coolest Super hero movie from the 1990s Crew!😉☮️
the true many faced god... a man is truly no one.
--- I saw this in the theater five times...and yes, I'm proud of it ! --- 12FEB22
Need to do remake of Darkman for sure
This was the trailer on my VHS before the main feature Tremors.

Are you here after Jawan teaser?
Classic movie 🎥
My dad showed this to me and my siblings I fell in love with it
Never saw this movie but im a huge fan of Liam neeson
Fast forward to 2020 where 3D printers can now print out human body parts including ears. This movie was ahead of its time.
One of the best comic movies ever made
I Like to think this Movie Helped Prepare Sam Rami for his eventual Directing Role on the Spider-Man Movies with Tobey Maguire.
Darkman just didn't get the epic stories he deserved. When he first hit the scene he was a fresh and completely fascinating hero.
He came, he saw, he kicked some evil @$$, then he faded away. ☹️
RIP Danny Hicks
Can somebody please tweet Sam Raimi and tell him we need a updated 2024-25 version of this movie with Liam Neeson reprising his role as Darkman! Thank you kindly! 🙏🏼
Nothing beats the old Trailer voice.....😅
00:03 - 00:20 Does anyone know the name of this music
Finally see the younger version of him
They need to Remake this movie❗️❗️
This and the unbreakable trilogy are probably my favorite superhero films that wasn't based on a comic book
0:50 - 1:15
What is this music from? Is it from a movie? Or just a generic music library? I swear I've heard it elsewhere before.
MaximumMadnessStixon gundam 0083?
I've never heard it anywhere else but I can't find it. Not even in the Darkman soundtrack!
This is from the great composer James Horner. I think its from Brainstorm OST.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 classic
This is where he learned his particular set of skills lol
0:48 Is that Frances McDormand??
Yes, she was very attractive!

Toby McGuire from the 1992 TV show?
Master who? I didn't know Sam Raimi is the Master Ras Gonn before, he did the Evil Dead films.
From Sam Raimi, the director of the Evil Dead movies from 1981 to 1987. And the 1985 Crimewaves.
still better than most of the MCU
I own this movie series and I use to own the movie comic book.This is a awesome movie!!!
A cult classic!,this movie needs a reboot!
BUT DONE RIGHT!!
Yes❗️
music by danny elfman
Still a movie I need to watch alongside the Rocketeer
You hang out with The Rocketeer?!
I guess the place didn't really get blown up. I'm watching the movie 😂 he has all his equipment working.
Still have the image in my mind of a pirated VHS tape this movie came on back in 1991...=)
Who is here after watching Srk's Jawan teaser?
I was terrified of this movie😭😭
I wish that u make it now in 2020 as a new version.

I want Remake of this movie...
Same!!!!
Classic movie
Liam neesons straight jacked up them wolves
This is how he developed a particular set of skills.
Poor Peyton is so lifebroken about that his humanity is ruined. Its hard for him to have his humanity recovered and cured
i am here after watching SRK jawaan teaser
I’m here after hearing Sam Raimi wants to make a Batman movie.
It also bears A LOT of similarities with Robocop, House of Wax, Phantom of the Opera, the Invisible Man, Batman
Seen this trailer before & I honestly like the storyline in it. If it wasn't R rated,I'd see it. ❤❤❤ Liam Nesson 😊.
Soft R.
A beautiful movie 90.
🙌🙌 raise hands after watching Jawan teaser
Who is here after jawan😂
If I had to guess, this trailer was probably shown in front of "Mo' Better Blues" when it opened in theaters in August 1990.
I last saw this over 26 years ago. To this day I still can't look at a cigar cutter the same way....
After jawan trailer hit like
The bad guys in this film were so menacing, it's 1 of the things that stuck with me from all those years ago..
