About this episode
As a follow-up to yesterday's comic review with Tony and Chris, we review the 1994 cult phenomenon The Crow. Best known for the tragic accident which saw Brandon Lee lose his life. Based on the comic created by James O'Barr and directed by Alex Proyas, we take a look at how this movie stands up. Crossover review with The VHS Strikes Back.
Plot:
A poetic guitarist Eric Draven is brought back to life by a crow a year after he and his fiancée are murdered. The crow guides him through the land of the living, and leads him to his killers: knife thrower Tin-tin, drugetic Funboy, car buff T-Bird, and the unsophisticated Skank. One by one, Eric gives these thugs a taste of their own medicine. However their leader Top-Dollar, a world-class crime lord who will dispatch his enemies with a Japanese sword and joke about it later, will soon learn the legend of the crow and the secret to the vigilante's invincibility.
