    The Crow I 143
    Sep 17 2025
    Released in 1994 and directed by Alex Proyas, The Crow is more than just a revenge tale. It’s a journey through grief, justice, and the supernatural. Based on James O’Barr’s graphic novel, the film tells the tragic story of Eric Draven and Shelly Webster who are murdered by a Detroit gang. A year later Eric is resurrected from his grave to avenge their deaths and soothe the guilt he feels for failing to protect his fiancé. With its haunting visuals, unforgettable soundtrack, and the tragic real-life story of Brandon Lee—whose performance became his legacy—the film carved out a permanent place in pop culture. In this episode of History of the 90s we track The Crow’s journey from comic book series to cult classic.
