I am someone who has never seen The Crow (1994), and now, thirty years later, a new take on the comic book story is coming to life from director Rupert Sanders. Bill Skarsgård stars as Eric (a.k.a. the Crow) and what we see in the film is an ill-fated love story come to life.

Shelly (FKA Twigs) and Eric meet in a rehab facility and their whirlwind romance ends in tragedy when Shelly’s past catches up to her. The entire first act of the movie is setting up Eric’s love of Shelly. From what I know of the original movie, that was the part that they could not film after the tragedy with Brandon Lee happened on set. It felt, in a lot of ways, like this take on The Crow wanted to give audiences that time to really live with Eric and Shelly.
