Yeah, I loved it too... did you know Brandon Lee died during filming? Died during his 5th movie... just like his dad Bruce Lee, freaky.

 

 

 

Anyway, loved the sound track too.

 

 

 

If you like Brandon Lee, check out Rapid Fire... another good one.

I used to watch The Crow alot when I was younger but I haven't watched it in a long while so I might end up renting it later in the week now.

Did you know someone was decapitated by a helicopter blade on set? :x

 

 

 

No, that was the Twilight Zone (it ruined John Landis' career).

Brandon Lee was shot dead during filming of The Crow because a live bullet was mistakenly (or not depending on who you believe) put in a prop gun for a scene they were filming. Thats why in one scene you hardly see the Crow's face (it's near the end if I remember correctly), because it's not actually Brandon Lee.

It wasn't a live round, it was a blank that fired a copper bullet cap. The gun was used previously in a close-up shot, so they couldn't convincingly use a blank round as it looks different to a live round. They also didn't want to put a live round in the gun and point it at the camera, for obvious reasons, so they used just the copper head of the bullet, but used no gunpowder. In the next scene that the gun was used in, Lee was supposed to be shot with the gun, triggering a blood pack in his chest. The gun was loaded with a blank round (which usually contain around 5 times more gunpowder to create a loud bankg, but they don't have a bullet cap. Unfortunately, the copper cap from the previous scene had been left in the gun,so when the blank went off, it propelled the copper cap into Brandon Lee's abdomen, killing him. Must have been pretty shocking to watch!

 

 

 

Look out for the last few scenes, you'll be amazed that they were actually acted by a body double, and had Lee's face superimposed in. Quite impressive editting, I'm sure you'll agree!
