Not so fun fact. That scene with Fun boy is the scene where we lost Brandon Lee. RIP, my man, and know that Bill Skarsgard can never replace you.
Just sent the link to Rochelle Davis good friend of mine who played sarah....wanted her to watch your experience watching the film first time
I write this to You to bring You Eternal Hope from far away."The Rapture"- is A Truly Real Future Biblical Christian Worldwide Event in which Millions of Living True Christian Believers shall be "Transported" into Heaven to meet The Creator Of The World/The Maker Of The World/The Lord Himself and they shall be with him Forever and ever.Also in addition to "The Rapture" another Truly Real Future Biblical Christian Worldwide Event called "The First Resurrection" will also take place,which will "Resurrect" All-Dead True Christian Believers and will also "Transport" them into Heaven to meet The Creator Of The World/The Maker Of The World/The Lord Himself and they shall be with him Forever and ever!
"The Rapture" collects All-Living True Christian Believers,while " The First Resurrection" collects All-Dead True Christian Believers.The Dead True Christian Believers shall rise first and then both:The Dead and The Living True Christian Believers shall Together be Transported into Heaven to be Together with The Christian God and to be Rewarded accordingly by The Christian God!
This is not a joke.I have seen "The Signs" and these words are "True and Correct".Remember!Jesus Christ said:“You don’t have to wait for the End.I am right now,Resurrection and Life.The one who believes in me,even though he or she dies,will live.And everyone who lives believing in me does not ultimately die at all.Do you believe this?”
@jobymanuel1353 I read somewhere not too long ago that it's the scene in flashbacks within the first 15 minutes or so of when the TBird and his crew are raping Shelly. They originally show FunBoy, shooting Eric, after Tin Tin throws his knife at him as he walks into the loft carrying groceries.
You can see Funboy's arm at the very end of one of those flashbacks with his arm and hand going back down to his side , in a way some people might do after firing a gun at someone or something. I'm pretty sure that was a portion of the scene that was originally planned
You're correct on the fact that it's Funboy just not the personal scene when Eric kills him. I always thought it was that scene as well until I recently read otherwise.
Victims aren’t we all 🐦⬛
Brandon Lee said in an interview while filming that the make up is cause Eric couldn't handle what happened to them, so he creates a persona that can and can do what needs done.
It was originally the theater mask of irony. Sad about the injustice, happy for the vengeance. Brandon had his own interpretation, but that was the OG comic reasoning…
The Crow isnt follwing him....its guiding him
Devil's Night was an actual informal event that occurred in Detroit every year on October 30th, involving rampant vandalism and arson. It happened for many decades and resulted in hundreds of fires every year, the worst in 1984 at over 800 fires. One of the reasons Detroit was a common joke as one of the worst cities was because of this event.
Since the mid-90s, several community outreach programs got together to curb the event, with volunteers patrolling the streets of Detroit. Theur efforts eventually led to the decline of Devil's Night in recent years. Last i checked, 2021 had the lowest number of arsons at only 3 structure fires.
IIRC, it was also discovered that a lot of the fires were landlords doing insurance fraud. That's right, they risked people's lives for an extra buck. Classic landlords.
Devils Night (30th Oct) has its roots in England. It goes back 100s of years and is typically called mischief night. It's supposed to be a day of mischief, tricks, pranks, and jokes but evolved into something a little darker over time
"I say I'm dead and I move ". That's gotta be one of my favorite movie lines of the 90's.
Almost all the bad guys die ironically: Tin-Tin to his own knives, Fun-Boy to his own drugs, T-Bird gets to fly (briefly) like a real thunderbird, and always high Skank falls down. Sinner Top Dollar is impaled on a church, his sister who likes eyes loses hers.
The Crow is a story drenched in pain from the very start. James O'Barr wrote the Crow Graphic Novel as a way to cope after the death of his Girlfriend/Fiancée Killed by a Drunk Driver. O'Barr's own hope that his project would result in a personal catharsis went unfulfilled. During an interview in 1994, he said, "as I drew each page, it made me more self-destructive, if anything... There is pure anger on each page".
Nearly twenty-five years ago I originally watched "The Crow" on cable TV, just a few years ago I finally got to watch James O'Barr talking on a DVD special feature about his sad and lonely life, before and after his tragic loss.
What I learned broke my heart
30 yrs nearly exactly since I saw this. Only 2 movies in my life I've ever rewatched again immediately... this and the prestige
I always loved how T-Bird was kind of the leader of the little crew but he was the only one who understood the gravity of the situation, that he seemingly tried to ask for forgiveness first…
Fun Fact: The guy who stand in for Brandon after his unfortuned death (every scene were we don't see Brandons face, like the Sarah scene) was his Stuntman, a guy called Chad Stahelski and jep it's the same Chad who later directed the John Wick movies.
Ah, that would explain why the guy who plays T-Bird is Charlie the Cleaner in John Wick.
for real?
@@krz.777 Yes, Chad began his career in Hollywood as a Stuntman, like i said, he worked in the Crow and he was also Keanu Reeves Stunt Double in The Matrix films, they are friends since then, thats also why Keanu is staring in the John Wick movies, because Chad asked his friend. :D
thx for explainin. The Crow is one of my alltime faves, bur I never looked up who stwpoed in after Brandon passed (rip). Shsme on me!
@@krz.777 Mine too, I rewatch it on a regular basis. I watched it in cinema in 94 and had no clue what this film was about blew me right over the moon! The story the acting, the screenplay and the music totally hits me in the feels.
So sad Brandon Lee died tragically young like his dad Bruce Lee. Both in their prime. He embodied his character, love The Crow ❤.
Fun fact: the big black guy with glasses is Tony Todd (Candyman) 😁🙌🏽🌠❤️👻🩸🔪🐝
"Believe in me. Be my victim."
That’s Michael Wincott as Top Dollar. He was in a lot of ‘90’s films like Robin Hood, Strange Days, and the Doors. Very underrated part of this film. Epic villain.
So good !
@@MOONPOPPERS I can’t believe this remake coming out seems to be replacing him with “Generic Evil Businessman #1” based on the trailer. Everything about it seems awful even though there’s good actors involved.
Along came a spider and The 3 musketeers
He was also the warden in count of monte cristo
@@Kari-qv1wn It’s a shame he seems semi-retired from acting. Although he did have a supporting role in “Nope” a couple years ago.
They didnt know who Amelia Earhart was lol
Also the guy who is shown looting the pawn shop is James O'Bar the creator and writer of The Crow comics
This is a perfect time capsule of the 90's: Great story, Awesome Soundtrack (Nine Inch Nails, Stone Temple Pilots, The Cure), and perfect atmosphere. So glad that you guys enjoyed it like I did when I first saw it in the 90's. IDK if you've seen it, but watch the director's follow-up "Dark City" (Director's Cut ONLY!!!).
The cure are 70-80s, nine inch nails style was late 80s.. the movie isn’t a time capsule, it’s just really good in any time period..
@VictorLugosi you're both correct
And almost everyone forgot ab. G. REVELL PERFECT score.
“People once believed that when someone dies, a crow carries their soul to the land of the dead. But sometimes, something so bad happens that a terrible sadness is carried with it and the soul can't rest. Then sometimes, just sometimes, the crow can bring that soul back to put the wrong things right.”
@Moon Pop This was my favorite movie pf all time, after my wife passed 2 years ago this is now in cement as my favorite film of all time. "Nothing is trivial" Is so true. I remember every wrong turn, every statement said in anger, just as much as every I love you. Cherrish whom you have, let them know you love them as tomorrow is promised to no one. Hugs and Best wishes to all
I’m sorry for your loss😢 love this comment !
@@MOONPOPPERS many thanks
In the 90s, every goth teen had The Crow posters, shirts, and makeup.
And dress as Crow on Halloween..
This is set in Detroit, and Devil’s Night was a real thing in the 80s and 90s, where people would set fire to abandoned buildings in Detroit the night before Halloween.
I’m not sure if it still happens though...
No. There might maybe a handful of fires on Devil's night now. It's nothing like it used to be, they cleaned up the city a LOT.
@@deannamarie8389 which is good I’m glad that they cleaned up the city now and it’s not a whole crappy match like any other small town or big town and I believe it’s for the best
a movie from the good old days, when they didn't spend half the time explaining why the bad guys became bad, and why exactly because of that we should like them (instead of the good guys!). I'm afraid that the remake will be exactly that type of movie.
Top dollars club doesn’t have one house band many different bands play at the club. And Eric’s band was one of the many that played there. His band’s picture on the wall was one of many pictures on the wall of all the bands that played there.
Brandon Lee was amazing in this role. Man the way he took out Tin Tin with his own knife, crazy cool!
Great reaction👏
It was so awesome!!!!
I'm so pump that a new generation of film goers are going to comeback to this film the influences in later films can seen throughout the film
"Buildings burn, People die. But real love is Forever!" I tattooed this for my wife. ❤
Honestly one of the best scenes in the movie is T-Bird's pre-death scene. Him being so sure that "there ain't no comin' back" mixed with his realisation of what's actually happening to him and his panic about what's about to happen to him is so well done. David Patrick Kelly doesn't get enough recognition for that scene.
You say creepy. I think the word you're looking for is atmospheric. Amazing visual and sound design.
Yes all those things were perfect
It was only 3 days left in filming when the fatal shot was fired, it was fun boy who pulled the trigger he almost commited suicide over it it wasn't a bullet, it was a blank and the paper wadding came out with enough velocity to be fatal when it hit brandon this movie let to current laws on firearm handling on set just came out the main inspector on rust is the one that loaded a live round into the gun he's been indicted
This CLASSIC takes place in a dystopian Detroit during " Devils Night " which is a real tradition of the most macabre sort, in real-life. T-Bird mentions Lake Erie, and also states : " which one of you Motor City MFers wants to bet this one isn't?? " during the scene in the bar, something to that effect. Great reaction and I thank you, sincerely, for keeping the legacy alive!!! 👊🏻🤲🏻😎
This movie hit us so good back in the day and so rad some of us as little ass kids dressed up as draven 2 consecutive halloweens in a row. "nothing is trivial" :D
Brandon Lee killed it in this role... Just perfect. Don't know how the remake will top this.
Let’s hope for the best
It won't
Thats a really bad taste comment.
Moonpoppers surely you are aware Brandon Lee was accidentally shot dead filming this movie?
You can never top the original
Examples: The Terminator, Roadhouse, Jurassic Park, Superman 😊🙌🏽🌠🙆🏽♂️💞🎬🔥
@Snyper1405 . The way this particular original is..to me, there will never be another that will top it.. in theory, a possibility to match it.. only never top it. I don't personally think it can be matched..just my way of looking at it
There is more to the crow not just the other movies but a series of books and comics that delve further into the lore of what the Crow is and what is the reason for Eric Draven and others to be returned to avenge what happened to them and their loved ones.
Of all the things he did the way he told that woman to be a better mother to her daughter was both terrifying and beautiful all at once.
Imo heath ledger took a lot of influence from the Crow.....if there ever was a masterpiece movie capturing a certain poignant period of time in society The Crow is as good as it gets.....it encapsulates the whole Grunge era perfectly in one anti hero movie. 🎉
I always love seeing people watch this blind for the first time
T-Bird is played by David Patrick Kelly. Among other roles, he’s most well known for playing Luther from ‘The Warriors’; 🎵Warriors, come out to play🎵
Hes alive as long as it takes to track all of them down and get payback and after he gets his payback he gets to go and be with shelly forever
This is a cult classic. Absolutely love it since I first watched it 20 years ago. So glad others are enjoying it.
He put all the pain SHE felt for 30 hrs all in 1 until she died. 💙💙
Please check out Rapid Fire also starring Brandon but it shows a lot more of his martial arts skills he learned from his Dad!!!
Rapid Fire, laser mission and showdown in little tokyo were aslo great Brandon Lee movies and the crow was his final movie, I know he would have been extremely great in other movies had he survived this film
I think the mask was part of classic Greek theater, tragedy vs. comedy, something that Eric, Shelley, or both of them had been interested in.
I also think that the makeup had been Shelley's. By putting it on, Eric was bringing a part of her as he went after their killers.
This is arguably the first gothpunk movie rest in peace to the actor brandon Lee past away making this film
Y’all should read the graphic novel. It’s amazing. You get more of an explanation of his connection to the crow.
“Stop me if you’ve heard this one…”
-The Crow
“No onions though… They make you f*rt big time!”
-The Sarah monster
There is absolutely no way they can remake this movie, it has too much meaning, heart and history and being Brandon Lees last movie...they should have left this masterpiece alone! But hey...it can't rain all the time!
It was all the pain Shelly felt that he got from Albrecht since he stayed with her in the hospital that Eric absorbed and transferred to him with the pain and suffering
Love this film, great soundtrack too!
The reason you see gor brandon & eliza at the end of the movie is that brandon & his fisncee` were supposed to be married on the day after filming was completed.
As this is one of my favorite movies as a teenager growing up I must compliment You guys. I have seen a lot of simple and dumb reactions from people on this movie but You guys ask astute questions and I just wanted to let You know it is appreciated. Thank You truly!
And they have the nerve to do a remake of this movie .
The 30hrs of pain....was what officer Albrecht went thru as he watched Shelly suffer and die, knowing there was nothing he could do for her.
Actually it's the 30 hours of pain that Shelly suffered through
Yep, its Shelly’s pain, he just gained it through Albrechtks memories
Good ups.
Dark 90's aesthetic? Vampires? So you'll be doing Blade 1998 soon.
The city is supposed to be Detroit. As a Michigander, I didn't know until I was a full adult that calling it Devil's Night was a regional thing, lol. It apparently started in Detroit in the 30's, known as Mischief Night, doing pranks and like mild vandalism (i.e. egging) and then it warped into arson and more serious crimes in the 70's, continuing on into the 90's. Local neighborhood groups were integral to cutting down on the arsons and it has gotten way better. We still call it Devil's Night, tho.
Badass movie, wasn't it 🙂I saw this in the theater when it came out so fucking cool I'm really glad yall watched it MoonPop 😎Awesome show 👏 Keep up the terrific work 👌 👏 👍 😀
This is a great movie and definitely ahead of it’s time. From the visuals to the soundtrack, it’s so cool. Brandon Lee did an outstanding job as well.
THE CROW is based on a graphic novel. The author wrote and illustrated it as a way of coping with the guilt over the death of his girlfriend. It was a stormy night and she was hit and killed by a drunk driver on the way to pick him up from work.
The mask is tragedy. The twin masks of shakespeare were comedy and tragedy. So.... you get it
The crow was to bring justice to shelly Eric saved Sarah by saving his mom then actually saving her
Remember that old saying, "as the crow flies", quite relevant to the movie in a metaphysical way.
In my opinion, The Crow, and the True Romance are the best movies about true love.
They didn't want to set it in a real city, for obvious reasons, but this city is based on Detroit, Michigan, where Devils' Night is a real thing, and they did set fires regularly on that night. (As far as I know, that still happens, but not sure.) I believe the original Graphic Novel by J O'barr was set in Detroit, as well...
My favorite movie... I didn't expect anything less. Greetings
Brandon had done a couple of smaller films before this (check out Rapid Fire & Showdown in Little Tokyo - Dolph Lungren stars with him in that) that were pretty good, but before tragedy struck this was set to catapult his career right up, as it is, its a film with a tragic history that came from a graphic novel that was borne out of tragedy. Other incidents (sometimes fatal) have also happened on sets of the sequels and the TV series.
Absolutely banging cast though - Top Dollar (Mike Wincott) you'll have seen as Guy of Gisburne in Robin Hood Prince of Thieves & Alien Resurrection, and at the end you've got Ernie Hudson fighting Tony Todd, a Ghostbuster vs Candyman!
One of my fave movies!!! RIP Brandon Lee
My top 3 favorite movie.. Can watch every day 😊😊first time was watch 1995 in cinema, 15 years old and was so scary movie for me then
For those who are wondering about TBird's car
It's a 1973 Ford Thunderbird that's been muscled out
I bought a 1972 Thunderbird that I had planned to do the same to.
Plans of that fell through and I sold the car
72 and 73 were about identical except that the side windows in the back weren't there on the 72 which to me was even better
If you're not needing to be the fastest out there and want something that not too many muscle car enthusiasts pick to work on, that car would be a nice car
This movie was more Batman than Batman '89.
Top Dallas was in Three Musketeers with Chris O’Donnell
I think it takes place in Detroit and I would have done well moved from such a place. This is one of my all-time favorite movies! Great revenge story and love story!
Thanks for the reaction to my favorite movie.
No problem 😊
Eric can die if the crow is hurt he is hurt the crow is his source of power the crow brought him back so if the crow get hurts or dies then he starts dying
Eliza was lees fiancee
RIP Brandon Lee March 31, 1993.
I watch it for the first time in theaters yesterday it was amazing
Cool fact not many pay attention too....if you watch the female singing band playing. They pan to the guitarist and the guitar with a blood spot. That was Draven's guitar that was pawned and sold and the guitarist used it for that gig they played. Also if you pause it at the right moment when funboy gets shot you can see the thin fishing line that pops the blood packs to make it look like he is shot. Also sad fact about funboy...the actor who played him commited suicide later after hating himself for being the one who killed brandon lee even though it was pure failure on the part of the ones who check the guns and safety. Also one of my coolest times in life was i actually got to hold and meet the main crow that was trained and starred in the movie (they had 3 crows for the movie) and it kept coming closer to my face (wanted more security in knowing it wouldnt slide off my shoulder so it was so close to face) i was a bit scared but can say i did that when not many can say they experienced that in life.
It is a Comic Book Film, that is a dark gothic action/romantic film
This is one of my all time favorite movies! It's based on a graphic novel of the same name. Sadly, Brandon Lee was killed in an on set accident during the making of the film. 😢 Always love seeing people's reaction to this awesome movie!👍
Devil's Night was a real thing in Detroit, there used to be like 300 fires that night. There might be a handful of fires in the city now, they cleaned up the city a lot. This is a fictionalized version of Detroit.
Also, Lake Erie did not catch fire. The Cuyahoga River, in Ohio, caught fire. The Cuyahoga River feeds into Lake Erie. The river caught fire, not the actual lake.
The most recent thing that I am aware of that the actor who played Top Dollar was in was the movie “Nope”.
You may recognise him in the movie (along came a spider) starring Morgan freeman and monica potter
He did an amazing job in "Alien:Ressurection".
I assume someone said this already but,this is Bruce Lee's son who was shot and killed during the filming of this movie. Brandon and his father are two my idols,along with STAN lee...the face of irony ( thats the mask in this)
The other black guy is the candyman great movie series back in the day candy man candy man candy man there i said it
Loved this movie. Our band just released a cover of "Dead Souls" from the original sound track.
Oh that’s so cool!
You assumed right,. It is all in a night, as the legend tells,and he can only use his powers until the murders(4) are dead,then returns to the afterlife before sunrise. Top Dollar was against the rules( working for the living, its called)
My bad,I have to correct MYSELF: a 24hr period, not sunrise
Brandon lee was suppose to get married one month after the making of the crow In April 1994
That’s sad 😔
Rip the legend Brandon
Yes the cop already knows it's going to be a rough night in the city it explained at the start of the movie the night before Halloween is called Devil's night. Im sorry I'm really not trying to be mean and i understand in a reaction video talking is involved but when your just blurting out dumb comments and even worse questions is very annoying. It's like you watched the movie but if someone were to ask you a question about the movie you would'nt have a clue. I'm atleast hoping you watched it at some point before or after your reaction. Again sorry if i am being mean and insulting. We all have our own opinions and mine is your not the kind of reactors i can watch anything with. Good luck to you both
Top is Three Musketeers with Chris O’Donnell
We are under 2 months before the bill movie
I was 13 when this movie came out, and it was instantly a cult classic. To this day, it's still my favorite movie of all time. RIP Brandon Lee.
You did the music dirty in this.
best revenge ever
Top Dollar is played by Michael Wincott.
"What if you are the security guard watching like..."
Ya.....
This is set in Detroit. The city burns on Devils Night
there's another story similar to this; The Wraith (1986) with Charlie Sheen.
Devil’s Night was a night when people started fires in Detroit and did other criminal mischief
There are two movies I saw every weekend in the theater. This and Tombstone.
Saw this brand new on VHS this verson has been remastered the original was filmed so dark on VHS couldn't see it nearly this good it needed it
Y’all should watch The Batman vs Dracula 🧛♀️ animated movie next 😊
That was fuckin great! I loved how much you guys enjoyed this classic!!! This still a better BatMan than anybody else has made so far. Sad, strange and true.
