The Crow, a supernatural fantasy horror hybrid that doubles as a superhero movie, turns 30 this year.

However, I was, and still am, down to give the 2024 remake a chance.

The Crow

First released in 1989, it’s a gut-wrenching tale of grief and what comes after.

Christian Slater and River Phoenix were initially considered for the role, before Brandon Lee came into the mix.

Lees Draven has become an iconic entry into pop culture history.

The Crow

The bullet holes close in real-time, and he laughs at the horror on his victim’s faces.

That said, the first-look images and trailer don’t seem to ring true to those black-and-white pages.

So far, those character names are the only thing keeping it in the remake/reboot category.

The Crow

The Crow is streaming now on Prime Video.

The remake is set to hit theaters on August 23.
