THE CROW: WICKED PRAYER (2005) REVIEW


The only film in the franchise I hadn't seen, I'm glad I can now say I've seen every crow film. With that being said this movie is definitely as straight to DVD B movie as straight to DVD B movies get. We end up with a very miscast Edward Furlong in the lead, who although wasn't terrible was not great either. When donning the crow attire this man looked like a goth lesbian and was hard to take seriously. The script was quite cheesy at times, for example if you ever wanted to see a film where Dennis Hopper said "Homie" or "Mack daddy" and pretended to be Latino when he is clearly not then this is the film for you. Here are a couple Dennis Hopper quotes out of context "I now pronounce you the devil and his shorty" plus "Is it really you original gangster, well props to you og" these are just a taste of his performance. Tito Ortiz is also in this film for some reason although he does nothing of note. Yeah this film was bad but because I'm such a fan of The Crow franchise as a whole I've scored this higher than I probably should have.

3 out of 5 STARS.

THE TOXIC AVENGER (1984) REVIEW

  A pure master-class in 80s schlock! Buckets of gore, the hammiest of acting and a story that is completely over the top, what more do you ...
