Remembering Brandon Lee, Who Made 'The Crow' Fly

I was there opening weekend 30 years ago when The Crow debuted in theaters. Like most everyone, I was aware that the film's rising star, Brandon Lee, had died tragically during an accidental shooting in the midst of production. I haven't seen the film since, so now that there's a new version of the film out this weekend, it seemed like a good time to revisit the original, which still holds up. My appreciation of Lee is up at Rolling Stone.

Happy 24th Anniversary, 'Crow' Soundtrack

This was fun: For my buddies over at Revolver, I went back and listened to the soundtrack for The Crow. We sorta forget about this now, but that was a huge album: It was No. 1 on the charts and went triple-platinum, featuring tracks from Stone Temple Pilots, the Cure, Nine Inch Nails and Helmet. How does the record hold up? Read on.
