The Crow is now available digitally for rent or purchase, as well as on Blu-ray, 4K Ultra High Definition, and DVD and we're celebrating with an awesome giveaway for one lucky fan of the film!

The swag pack includes a copy of The Crow in 4K, a custom journal, temporary tattoos, long sleeve shirt, charcoal sticks, a printed charcoal drawing, and a set of button pins! You can see everything that's included, as well as find out how to enter, below!

The Crow is directed by Rupert Sanders from a script by Zach Baylin and Will Schneider. Producers include Edward R. Pressman, Samuel Hadida, Victor Hadida, John Jencks, and Molly Hassell.

Bill Skarsgård plays Eric alongside FKA Twigs as Shelly, his ill-fated love. The supporting cast includes Danny Huston, Isabella Wei, Laura Birn, and Sami Bouajila.

Bill Skarsgård takes on the iconic role of THE CROW in this modern reimagining of the original graphic novel by James O’Barr. Soulmates Eric (Skarsgård) and Shelly (FKA twigs) are brutally murdered when the demons of her dark past catch up with them. Given the chance to save his true love by sacrificing himself, Eric sets out to seek merciless revenge on their killers, traversing the worlds of the living and the dead to put the wrong things right.

Published in 1989 by Caliber Press, The Crow is a dark, poignant revenge story infused with themes of love, loss, and redemption. O'Barr wrote and illustrated the comic to cope with the personal tragedy of his fiancée's death, which deeply influences the story's tone and character motivations.

The plot revolves around Eric Draven, a man who is brutally murdered alongside his fiancée, Shelly, by a gang of criminals. Eric returns from the dead, guided by a supernatural crow, to exact vengeance on those responsible for their deaths. His resurrection is fueled by an unbreakable love and a profound sense of justice, allowing him to confront the people who wronged him in violent, often symbolic ways.

Themes of gothic romance, existential pain, and the cycle of violence heavily influence the story. Eric's journey is not just about revenge; it's a means for him to find closure and, in some ways, redemption. His love for Shelly remains at the heart of the narrative, and much of the story's atmosphere and tone reflect O'Barr's own feelings of grief and sorrow.

The Crow's artwork is deeply atmospheric, relying on stark contrasts, shadow, and a raw, almost sketch-like quality that adds to the comic's haunting nature. O'Barr's use of black and white imagery enhances the tragic beauty of Eric's story, giving readers a visual experience that mirrors the raw, emotional weight of the narrative.

The Crow became a cult classic almost immediately upon its release, praised for its raw storytelling and unique style. Its success led to adaptations, including a 1994 film directed by Alex Proyas starring the late Brandon Lee. The film, which gained its cult following, closely follows the comic's storyline and aesthetic but incorporates more dialogue and cinematic elements. Tragically, Brandon Lee died during filming due to an on-set accident, which added another layer of dark mystique to the story's legacy.

The comic has since inspired sequels, spin-offs, and reinterpretations by other writers and artists, each adding their spin to the mythos of The Crow. The character of Eric Draven and the underlying themes of love, loss, and retribution continue to resonate with readers, making The Crow a defining work within independent comics and a timeless piece in the graphic novel genre.

No exaggeration at all, this was the worst remake I’ve ever seen. Finding the words to describe just how awful this was would be an undertaking and would require an essay to truly convey just how terribly bad this was.

It was bad

I actually really liked it. I think it may have done better if it wasn't called The Crow with minor tweaks.

@SquadGhouls - i enjoyed it as well. The only problem was re-using the names Eric & Shelley and simply calling it “The Crow”. Other than that, it has absolutely nothing to do with the original graphic novel or the 1994 film.

Change the character names and call the film something like “The Crow: Immortal Redemption” and it wouldn’t have suffered the direct comparisons to the original.

It’s the 2nd best Crow film - definitely better than City of Angels, Salvation and . . . let’s not discuss Wicked Prayer.

I actually was good with the movie. Taking it as a general action movie rather than comparing it to Brandon Lee's movie makes it a more enjoyable venture.

Yay! A bunch of crap from a crap movie. Way to waste millions of dollars while shitting on Brandon’s legacy……….Hollywood will never learn that the key to the success of films like the original “The Crow” is faith in the material, not a lazy idea like “Hey! The original did great, let’s just do that again!!!” 🤦‍♂️

Lifelong fan of THE CROW.

I was in the theatre for the original in 1994 as a young teen, have seen all the films, read & reread James O’Barr’s stunningly beautiful graphic novel many times (one of my favorite books period and my favorite artist) and have also read Crow books from other authors & watched the tv series Stairway to Heaven (despite its numerous flaws).

I’ve always loved the way O’Barr portrayed the beauty in pain and showed how Grief is truly the persistence of love after death.

"Life Is Lousy With Hurt But It Also Shimmers With Beauty. Don't Miss Your Chance To Be A Part Of That Beauty. You May Not Get Another."

I’ve never viewed this film as a remake. The fact they used the first names Eric & Shelley are the only thing in common with the 1994 film.

To me, it’s just another brand new Crow story, just like City of Angels or Salvation or books like Flesh & Blood.

I’d LOVE to have this to add to my Crow collection. Thanks for the opportunity!
