Well, said heysweden. 
Larry Drake is fantastic, and I should make a entry for him in the eccentric henchmen thread, as he sure is one of the most memorable and sadistic villains of the 80s early 90s.
What a great way of introducing a character, such as Robert Durant early on, having him cut off some "poor" guys fingers, one by one:
Robert Durant: "Now, let's consider my points, one by one. One. I try not to let my anger get the better of me."
[Durant cuts off one of Black's fingers. Eddie Black starts to sweat]
Robert Durant: "Two. I don't always succeed."
[Durant cuts off another of Eddie Black's fingers]
Robert Durant: "Three. I've got seven more points."
[Durant cuts off Black's third finger. Eddie Black screams]
It is sad that so many of the great scenes from Darkman is not available any longer, but it really is quite the opening act, thats for sure.
SPOILER ALERT!!!!!
I find it hilarious how Durant even manages to survive without a scratch, as his helicopter is completely destroyed
and then make a big comeback in the sequel, which is not that bad. I enjoyed both the sequels, sure not close to the original but I thought Arnold Vosloo did a fine job as Dr. Peyton Westlake/Darkman.
SPOILER ALERT!!!!!
