Ghost Rider (2007)

Ghost Rider follows stunt motorcyclist Johnny Blaze, who sells his soul to save his father and is later forced to serve as the Devil’s bounty hunter. By night he transforms into the flaming-skulled Spirit of Vengeance, hunting escaped demons and facing the rising threat of Blackheart. Based on the Marvel Comics anti-hero, the film brought one of Marvel’s darkest supernatural characters to the big screen.
