There is only one Liam Neeson and I'm not asking Arnold Vosloo to deliver a performance as good as Neeson because I know he can't but I do expect a performance that isn't wooden,stale and with zero charisma. Vosloo is practically reading cue cards for the bulk of the film! Darkman worked because Peyton Westlake was such an interesting character and here all of the life the character had is pretty much stripped away. Die Darkman Die works somewhat despite Vosloo being horribly miscast. We have one character horribly miscast and one character perfectly cast,Jeff Fahey is outstanding as Peter Rooker.
Like Vosloo Bradford May has very large boots to fill but he exceeded my expectations. Die Darkman Die is very Raimi like and we get some outstanding visuals for a DTV movie. The Make up effects here are even better than they were in the original Darkman.
I really think that if Vosloo was not Westlake I would have enjoyed the film a lot more,everything else works in the film but him.
