The Dark Dealer

1995 · 1h 25m · Horror

IMDb 5.2

The Dark Dealer's anthology structure and soul-wagering premise sound intriguing, but a 5.2 IMDb score tells you everything you need to know—this one fails to deliver on its creative setup. Skip it tonight and find a horror film that actually knows how to execute its wild ideas.

Plot

A trio of desperate men are forced to participate in a nightmarish game of blackjack for their souls. The circumstances behind how these fellows wound up in purgatory are revealed in three individual segments: Two vicious hoodlums break into the basement dwelling of an old hermit who isn't nearly as harmless as he appears to be; an unscrupulous entertainment lawyer gets more than he bargained for when he decides to steal several songs from a deceased blues singer; and a young ex-con agrees to help a scuzzy drug dealer rob a pharmaceutical lab in order to save his girlfriend from the clutches of said dope pusher.
