When Jimmy and his half Native American girlfriend Lily are murdered by a rampaging satanic cult led by Luc Crash and his demonic bride, he is traumatised to find himself reincarnated as 'The Crow', an immortal being of Native American folk law and the 'killer of killers'.

Official Review

The latest entry in “The Crow” franchise, “The Crow – Wicked Prayer”, is quite different from past entries. This time, the story of The Crow is set in the great, open Southwest as opposed to the gritty urban settings of previous films and this gives a much more “mystical” feel to the movie. Starring Edward Furlong (“T2”, “American History X”) as Jimmy Cuervo/The Crow, David Boreanaz (“Angel”, “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”) as Luc Crash/Death, Tara Reid (”American Pie”, “Urban Legend”) as Crash’s girlfriend, Lola Byrne, Emmanuelle Chriqui (“Wrong Turn”, “Detroit Rock City”) as Jimmy’s Native American girlfriend, Lily Who Ignites The Dawn and in smaller roles, Dennis Hopper, Danny Trejo and singer Macy Gray, the film is an interesting blend of Native American/Hispanic folklore as well as Satanism and, of course, The Crow legend. …Read More
