Whooo, this one had me all over the place in my feels.  Lots of action, great kills, some laughs even, with some real painful stuff to bookend all that.

In 1994/95 I was OBSSESSED by this movie! I was a weedy, nerdy white guy (who left High School in 1993) and to me Eric Draven was the epitome of cool. I bought the soundtrack on casette tape and listened to it until my walkman's batteries ran flat repeatedly. It was a stroke of genius to establish the Bad Guys early on as utterly despicable as possible - contrasting them strongly with the Good Guys. It didn't hurt that the cast was fantastic - I absolutely LOVE Tony Todd in everything I ever saw him in - he was one of the elements that made Candyman so much better than it deserved to be on paper, Anna Thomson, who was coming directly off Unforgiven and True Romance, and Michael Wincott (Sir Guy of Gisburne in the delightfully cheesy Robin Hood -Prince of Thieves). Even John Polito (who later be forever associated in my mind with the PI hired by the Knutsen's track down their wayward daughter in The Big Lebowski Above all, I associated The Crow with the untimely, tragic death of Bruce Lee's son Brandon. This is actually the first I am hearing of a remake, and it is something that will piss me off unless it is handled really respectfully.

Its a fun movie and a specific style, but is unfortunately remembered as the movie Brandon Lee died during filming on. He had a promising career with some fun shallow action movies he was in before like Rapid Fire.

Yeah, I guess they cast Bill Skarsgaard, some people are excited, some are pissed. I don’t have any strong feelings one way or the other as far as he goes, it would be more important to do the story right.

It’s really unfortunate because the movie stands on its own, but it’s always going to have that association. And Lee deserves to be remembered for his talent and hard work, not the sad way he died.
