Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance Teaser Trailer

Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance Teaser Trailer

I don’t think I’m going too far out on a limb when I say that the first Ghost Rider film was underwhelming. The story was fairly sub-par, and the acting was bad and that’s being gentle. For me, and most fans, the fact that Nic Cage was cast for the leading role is what ruined [...]
