Sam Raimi made a name for himself with Evil Dead, but he really took off as a filmmaker with Darkman. On February 20th, 2024, you’ll be able to experience the film like you’ve never seen it before. Scream Factory unleashes the 4K UHD of Darkman with a couple of different variants and versions. This is the first time the film has ever been on 4K UHD. It features a brand-new restoration from the original camera negative in Dolby Vision, approved by Sam Raimi and Director of Photography Bill Pope.

If you haven’t seen Darkman, here’s a bit of a refresher.

Oscar® nominee and Golden Globe Awards winner Liam Neeson (Schindler’s List, Taken) and Oscar® winner Frances McDormand (Fargo, Nomadland ) star in Darkman – the explosive, action-packed thriller from director Sam Raimi (the Spider-Man trilogy).

Dr. Peyton Westlake (Neeson) is on the verge of realizing a major breakthrough in the creation of synthetic skin when his laboratory is blown up 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 his former love (McDormand).
