History YMMV / GhostRiderSpiritOfVengeance

* EnsembleDarkhorse:
** Moreau.
** If you're not a fan of the NarmCharm, it goes extra for Nadya as well. Her entire story is perhaps the only good thing about the film.

* NarmCharm: TheMovie.

* SugarWiki/DevelopmentHeaven: Creator/NicolasCage prepared for the role by invoking [[UsefulNotes/{{Voudoun}} Baron Samedi]] and other death entities in makeup and costuming. Instead of just wearing basic mo-cap markers on his face, he wore full Baron Samedi facepaint, had Egyptian talismans and relics sewn into the leather jacket and gathering tourmaline and onyx in his pockets to "gather these energies together and shock his imagination into believing that [he] was augmented by them in some way, or in contact with ancient ghosts". Walking onto set not saying a word and weirding out the cast and crew, he believed he was the Ghost Rider.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: "[[http://youtu.be/-6C7wpQ6Mdg Velvet Itch]]" by Bass Drum of Death.

* HamAndCheese: Nicolas Cage is ''clearly'' having fun this time around.
* HilariousInHindsight: Idris Elba playing a [[Film/{{Thor}} guardian warrior]] monk.

* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: Every scene with The Rider is generally praised, from his redesign from a heavy metal album cover to a charred skeleton wearing a constantly boiling leather jacket to any time he takes control of a vehicle and sets it on hellfire to wreak havoc.

* CompleteMonster:
** ComicBook/{{Mephisto}} returns from [[Film/GhostRider the first film]]. See [[YMMV/GhostRider here]] for details.
** [[PsychoForHire Ray Carrigan]] is a sadistic mercenary involved in all kinds of crimes, including drug and [[ArmsDealer arms trafficking]], as well as [[WouldHurtAChild kidnapping children]]. Hired by Mephisto to capture the young Danny, Carrigan and his henchmen attack the monastery where he's hiding and mercilessly massacre all the monks before catching the kid and his mother Nadya. Despite their history, Carrigan prepares to execute Nadya while smiling maniacally, but he's stopped by Ghost Rider who eventually kills him. However, Mephisto later resurrects Carrigan as a demonic being with the [[WalkingWasteland power of decay]], so that he can continue his mission. After testing his new powers by horribly killing a random civilian, Carrigan goes to the Sanctuary, where he [[CruelAndUnusualDeath brutally slaughters]] every monk while cracking jokes and treating the whole thing like a fun game. Then, he kidnaps Danny and brings him to Mephisto, knowing full well that the demon is planning to sacrifice him to steal his body and become powerful enough to rule over the world. When Johnny Blaze, Nadya, and Moreau come to save the kid, Carrigan gruesomely kills Moreau, tortures Johnny [[ForTheEvulz for his amusement]], and tries again to murder Nadya. Even though he started as a normal human being, [[HumansAreTheRealMonsters Carrigan rivals high-level demons in sheer sadism and cruelty]].
