‘The Crow’ Trailer: Bill Skarsgard Exacts His Bloody Revenge Over and Over Again

See the trailer for 'The Crow' reboot starring Bill Skarsgard and FKA Twigs.

A trailer for The Crow, due out this summer, shows Skarsgård in the role of Eric Draven, a restless spirit hellbent (literally) on avenging his own death, as well as that of his lover, Shelley Webster, played by FKA Twigs. The special effects are slicker than the original movie’s, and the trailer suggests this version will be even gorier with close-ups of bad guys’ brains splattering all over the floor when Draven shoots them, hunting down each person who was responsible for his and Webster’s deaths. The original Crow movie, which starred Bruce Lee’s son Brandon, was a sleeper hit when it came out in the spring of 1994, but it quickly became a cult sensation thanks to its gothic look and a great soundtrack with songs by Nine Inch Nails, the Cure, and Stone Temple Pilots.
