A man, after being brutally murdered, comes back to life to avenge his and his fiancée’s death by killing the ones responsible one by one.
Even though deeply stigmatised and remembered as the film in which Brandon Lee was killed, The Crow still remains Lee’s legacy and a ’90s goth, revenge, Halloween classic. One of Alex Proyas’ finest films that unfortunately spawned sequels that should have never been made. Ranked 37th in IGN’s Top 100 Comic Book Heroes, the film has significant differences from the graphic novel, but, proudly growing up with it, I can reassure you that, despite its flaws, it will be admired by every future generation to come.
The production details vary from ground-breaking VFX to complete the film after Lee’s death, to sets getting destroyed, to numerous people getting injured, and to cast and crew constantly abusing cocaine from the set to the toilets. Regardless, if you grew up with it as well, it will take you for a stroll down memory lane, and if you were too young or not born yet, it would travel you to an analogue world before the digital era took over.
Both father and son will always live in our hearts.
