“The Crow” Review

The Crow: Directed by Rupert Sanders. With Bill Skarsgård, FKA twigs, Danny Huston, Josette Simon. Soulmates Eric and Shelly are brutally murdered. Given a chance to save the love of his life, Eric must sacrifice himself and traverse the worlds of the living and the dead, seeking revenge.

The blood soaked title card sequence is pretty cool, and the rest of the film is equally drenched in gallons of blood, there’s not a whole lot that I can point to as innovative or all that interesting. The franchise itself has done a ton of cool stuff, but has driven most of it’s concepts into the territory of being too familiar or derivative, even from it’s own movies. I’m not sure what would pump new life into the character, but this attempt didn’t really do it for me.
