‘The Crow’ OG Director Revels In Remake’s “Brutal” Reviews: “Cynical Cash-Grab”


Alex Proyas is reveling in the $50 million remake's negative reviews after 'The Crow' bombed at the box office with a $4.6 million opening

Directed by Sanders ( Snow White and the Huntsman, Ghost in the Shell), it follows Eric Draven ( Bill Skarsgård) and Shelly Webster ( FKA Twigs) as they fall in love in a rehabilitation facility and run away together. Proyas took to Facebook ahead of the movie’s Aug. 23 premiere, posting a monocle emoji with a screenshot of a review about the “ unfathomably awful goth remake.” He paid tribute to actor Brandon Lee, who previously died at age 28 when he was struck by a live round from a real revolver that was used as a prop gun in a scene from the original movie.
