Darkman Trilogy: (Darkman / Darkman II: The Return Of Durant / Darkman III: Die Darkman Die) In comparison to the Neeson's portrayal of the character in the original, Vosloo didn't quite capture the angry side of him in Darkman 2, but a more heroic side. In Darkman 3 however, Vosloo did portray him in a combination of a Darkman's character in the first and second films and I give him props for that. I would say those are the two best actors to play Darkman and with that said it makes a great trilogy and well worth buying.

She just did it with a straight face every single time, and it killed David Ogden Stiers [who played Lane's father], it killed the crew, but she never broke.

Another fun moment: Though Cusack and Aaron Dozier, who played Roy Stalin, had never skied before, they barreled down the mountain without injury. Holland, however, wasn't so lucky.
