In premise and tone alone, The Crow is already an entirely different beast from the type of stories offered by the Marvel or DC universes, which could definitely make it appealing to fans who have grown tired of the big-budget PG-13 spectacles that characterize the summer season.
The Crow centers on a deceased heavy metal musician named Eric Draven who finds himself brought back from the grave by a crow.
Endowed with superhuman abilities and immortality, he proceeds to go on a rampage to exact revenge for the murder of his fiancée.
