The Crow
A film that set the mold for R-rated comic book adaptations, but is perhaps most famous for putting its enigmatic star Brandon Lee on the map... and taking him off it forever. Lizzie walks Chris through a production riddled with problems long before Lee’s untimely death, who else almost played Eric Draven and the film’s surprising connection to John Wick. They're also joined by an expert, armorer Larry Zanoff, to break down the on-set shooting of Brandon Lee.
