The premise

In order to save his dying father, young stunt cyclist Johnny Blaze sells his soul to Mephistopheles and sadly parts from the pure-hearted Roxanne Simpson, the love of his life. Years later, Johnny's path crosses again with Roxanne, now a go-getting reporter, and also with Mephistopheles, who offers to release Johnny's soul if Johnny becomes the fabled, fiery 'Ghost Rider'.

Horror Vault's take

When young daredevil Johnny Blaze makes a desperate bargain with the devil to save someone he loves, he unknowingly signs away more than he can imagine. Years on, the chickens come home to roost when his supernatural debt is called in, transforming him into a blazing, skull-headed spirit of vengeance. Caught between his feelings for a woman from his past and the infernal forces pulling his strings, Johnny must navigate a world where heaven, hell, and the open road collide. Based on the Marvel Comics character, this is a bombastic supernatural action ride with Nicolas Cage at his most unhinged.
