\"Darkman\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Sam Raimi’s Darkman<\/strong> is a particular favorite here. A fun throwback film that of a multitude of pulp influences, Raimi’s ersatz Phantom Of The Opera<\/em>-cum-superhero film was what I pointed to when people questioned the choice of the “Evil Dead<\/strong> guy” to direct Sony’s Spider-Man<\/strong> film. That seemed to work out well for everyone involved. Unfortunately, the blu-ray for the film that was released back in June 2011 was lacking in the special features department. But Shout Factory is going to make up for that when the release the film in a new special edition in April.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, their cover art is actually some of the worse I’ve seen for a home video release in a while, though I concede that I may be biased. Fortunately, the film’s original poster art will also be included on the reverse side. You can check out both covers below the list of special features that will be on the disc.<\/p>\n

Shout Factor’s Darkman<\/strong> hits store shelves on February 18 and you can order it from Amazon here<\/a>\"\".<\/p>\n
