Ghost Rider was
one of the most indistinct and inconsequential superhero films of the last
decade. It managed a decent box office gross,
but has since faded into the background while more the more notable films of
the genre have maintained a high profile.
Nobody was clamoring for a sequel, but the powers that be have deemed
the masses worthy of just such an honor.
Next February, Ghost Rider: Spirit
of Vengeance will be roaring onto multiplex screens. While this news might not set the world on
fire, the guys behind this loose sequel are certainly of interest. Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor are the duo
behind Jason Statham’s highly entertaining Crank
films. They have apparently added their
manic touch to the saga of Johnny Blaze.
