Released in 1994, this atmospheric urban fantasy cult classic is based on James O'Barr's independent comic and directed by Alex Proyas, the mind behind the masterful Dark City. Brandon Lee's commanding — and, tragically, final — star turn is backed by a grunge/industrial/shoegaze soundtrack that includes the Chicago-based My Life with the Thrill Kill Kult, plus The Cure, STP, The Jesus and Mary Chain, and so many more. A deceptively simple tale of a man who loses it all on Devil's Night and is reborn as the fabulously ghoulish Crow, The Crow uniquely captures the angst-ridden grimy glamor of ‘90s post-industrial rot.
