Darkman II: The Return of Durant
Darkman and Durant return and they hate each other as much as ever. This time, Durant has plans to take over the city's drug trade using high-tech weaponry. Darkman must step in and try to stop Durant once and for all.
Why it matters
A mid-’90s direct-to-video sequel that doubles down on comic book pulp and B-movie charm, Darkman II serves up campy action and mad scientist showdowns with a side of practical effects.
- Larry Drake’s menacing Durant steals every scene with gleefully over-the-top villainy.
- A playground for old-school practical effects and stunts that remind you why this era of horror-action hybrids has cult appeal.
- Perfect for fans of pulpy superhero pastiches before the MCU polished everything to a sci-fi sheen.
- Not high art, but a fun dive into ’90s genre excess with enough grit to satisfy lovers of campy, offbeat horror-thrillers.
