THE CROW-FIRST BORN-This film by Director Chris Rayback,Out Of
Order Productions, and Razorback Films tells the story of two young lovers who are both members of a street gang called The
Red Dragon's. Since the young woman is expecting the couple decide to leave their gang days behind them to raise their child.
Unfortunately things don't work out the way they had planned and the couple are murdered in cold blood along with their unborn
child as punishment for wanting to leave The Red Dragon's. To make wrong things right the spirit of the young man is
ressurected from the dead in the form of The Crow, A true spirit of vengeance. The Crow hunts down the original members
of the Red Dragon's one by one until all pay for their savage acts of cold blooded murder. This was a great adaptation of
James O'Barr's original Crow comics because it captured everything that the Crow is supposed to be, a grim soldier of justice
who will not rest until all the guilty are punished. At times the young actor playing The Crow (Steven Daff) reminded
Me of Brandon Lee and I got the chills. Some cool effects are used in flashback sequences and a very impressive shot through
the eyes of a Crow are used. This film set out to pay homage to James O'Barr's creation and I think they certainly pulled
it off. Great job folks! *This film was previously available on Spike, but has since been removed. I'll
let you know if I can track it down. If you can locate it, please let us know. Thanks
