THE CROW – Graeme Revell
THROWBACK THIRTY
Original Review by Jonathan Broxton
The Crow is a dark supernatural action thriller directed by Alex Proyas, based on the comic book of the same name by James O’Barr. The story follows Eric Draven, played by Brandon Lee, a rock musician who is brutally murdered along with his fiancée, Shelly, by a gang of criminals. One year after their deaths, Eric is resurrected by a mystical crow to seek vengeance on those who wronged him. Eric soon discovers he has supernatural abilities and is invulnerable to pain; guided by the crow, he methodically tracks down and eliminates the gang members responsible for his and Shelly’s deaths, until eventually he comes face-to-face with the gang’s vicious leader, Top Dollar. The film co-starred Michael Wincott, Sofia Shinas, and Michael Massee, as well as Ernie Hudson as sympathetic cop Albrecht, and Rochelle Davis as a young girl named Sarah who was close to Eric and Shelly.
