Movie Synopsis
Johnny Blazer (Nicolas Cage), a motorcycle superstar, makes a pact with the demon Mephisto when he discovers his father has cancer. He himself transforms into a ghost Rider to serve the demons. Johnny, who obeys the devil’s request, is a star-studded superstar during the day; at night, he is dressed in leather, his body turns into a skeleton, and he wears a war robe full of spikes. He drives a motorcycle and hunts down those vicious people for the devil. But Johnny gradually discovered that the biggest demon was Mephisto, and he began to walk between justice and evil. His love interest, Roxy Anne (Eva Mendes), emboldened Johnny to make a decision in his mind.
