Welcome! This site is a product of my love for The Crow and Brandon Lee's work. I would like to dedicate this page to Brandon Lee. He was my and many others' inspiration. May his memory live on with us forever. Coming soon (when I find enough time to do it well) will be a site about Crow 2. Please feel free to visit one of my other sites listed above.

People once believed that when someone dies, a crow carries their soul to the land of the dead. But sometimes something so bad happens that terrible sadness is carried with it. And the soul can't rest. But sometimes, just sometimes, the crow can bring back that soul to put the wrong things right.
Brandon Lee died during a mishap on the set. A scene required a gun to be loaded, cocked, and then pointed at the camera. Because of the close-range of the shot, the bullets loaded had real brass caps, but no powder. After the cut, the propsmaster (not the armsmaster - he had left the set for the day) dry-fired the gun to get the cock off, knocking an empty cartridge into the barrel of the gun. The next scene to be filmed involving that gun was the rape of Shelly. The gun was loaded with blanks (which usually contain double or triple the powder of a normal bullet to make a loud noise). Lee entered the set carrying a bag of groceries containing an explosive blood pack. The script called for Funboy ('Michael Massey') to shoot Eric Draven (Lee) as he entered the room, setting off the blood pack. The cartridge that was stuck in the barrel was blasted at Lee through the bag he was carrying, killing him. The footage of his death was destroyed without being developed. Lee is the son of martial arts legend Bruce Lee, who died on July 20, 1973, under mysterious circumstances just after making Enter the Dragon (1979).
