The Crow

[the shadow]

It was a murder most fowl

 

[C Kent]

Looks awful

 

[RevBillyG]

oh no

 

[Kyo]

Looks awful

its definitely different to the original. I just cant stop thinking he pennywise rather than the crow lol.

 

[Stu999]

Looks proper garbage.

 

[Converge]

Trailers which show so much are just getting stupid. Also, looks awful.

 

[diverse180]

Nope.

 

[Dandaman]

No thanks.

 

[checjb]

Nope. Love the original but this seems like an unnecessary cash grab and The Crow just doesn't look menacing.

 

[wolfie138]

horrid on every level.

 

[jpaul]

need to add 9" nails to my tidal playlist - sounds as bad as flatliners remake

 

[Stu999]

YT comments are as you’d expect.

Also described as “John Wick with superpowers”.

 

[Minusorange]

Looks rubbish even with the family friendly trailer

I dont get it, is it that the "crow" can be anyone?...Like, it isn't maybe a one off story, they could have made a newer story with the same supernatural element?
Setting it up to a direct comparison and seeing the trailer means Im just going to watch the original on the weekend lol.
Also is anyone else sick of over the top cgi blood splatter, can we not get block packs and body squibs back?

When it comes to the movies the classic/original ones are always hard to beat, i guess it could be due to the limited of technology out then, they put in more effort, the crow is definately the once i would recommend always than any remake of it. R!P brandon

The Crow remake is SLAMMED as 'gore porn' by unimpressed horror fans

Bill Skarsgard stars as Eric Draven/The Crow while FKA twigs plays his fiancée Shelly Webster in the upcoming thriller about their tragic love story and tale of revenge.

If it hadn't been made as "Eric Draven" then it maybe, just maybe might have stood a slight chance of getting an "OK" from the fans, but instead what they've given people just misses the mark every which way it could. I saw Jeremy Jahns review of the trailer which, I think accurately, described this new look/feel as making the Character look like some the OG Draven would have been beating up instead of being the lead.

I liked the OG version and don't see anything in particular in the trailer that intrigues me enough to spend money to watch it so I'll give it a miss.

everyone makes this mistake. Eric isn't the crow, it's not a superhero persona. the bird is the crow. the title refers to the legend of the bird carrying souls back and forth from the land of the dead. the crow can bring back anyone if their soul is restless.
