Oaklee D The only film in the franchise I hadn't seen, I'm glad I can now say I've seen every crow film. With that being said this movie is definitely as straight to DVD B movie as straight to DVD B movies get. We end up with a very miscast Edward Furlong in the lead, who although wasn't terrible was not great either. When donning the crow attire this man looked like a goth lesbian and was hard to take seriously. The script was quite cheesy at times, for example if you ever wanted to see a film where Dennis Hopper said "Homie" or "Mack daddy" and pretended to be Latino when he is clearly not then this is the film for you. Here are a couple Dennis Hopper quotes out of context "I now pronounce you the devil and his shorty" plus "Is it really you original gangster, well props to you og" these are just a taste of his performance. Tito Ortiz is also in this film for some reason although he does nothing of note. Yeah this film was bad but because I'm such a fan of The Crow franchise as a whole I've scored this higher than I probably should have. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/25/24 Full Review Tim M Coming across more as a mortal sin, The Crow: Wicked Prayer and its laughable moments mean this series ought not be resurrected again. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/10/24 Full Review r96 s So ridiculous that it's kinda watchable. 'The Crow: Wicked Prayer' is not a good movie. However, it commits so hard to what it wants to do that I was kinda locked on to just see where it would go next. It particularly goes off the rails towards the conclusion, especially with David Boreanaz's Luc. There are many, many issues with this 2005 release, but I honestly didn't hate viewing it. I think what helps (relatively speaking) is that there are quite a few familiar faces on the cast, which definitely keeps you watching - or it does for me, at least. You have the aforementioned Boreanaz, as well as Tara Reid, Danny Trejo and Dennis Hopper. Emmanuelle Chriqui is in there too. The main face that I didn't know of was actually Edward Furlong, who plays the titular character. Furlong's performance isn't, like the film in general, anything worth praising. Again though, he proper goes for it so his onscreen presence never annoyed me. Nothing about this really irritated me to be honest, it's just plainly obvious from pretty much the get-go that the flick isn't anything all that good so I guess my expectations were low. I'd rather rewatch this than 'The Crow: City of Angels', so that's something. Eager to now see how this year's reboot does things. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/05/24 Full Review Tyler B Wicked Prayer? More like Wicked Crap! Sounded like the Angry Video Game Nerd there but I gave this more effort than the writers did at making something worthwhile for this worthless ashcan sequel. Edward Furlong in an interview claimed he did this as a tribute to Brandon Lee.. more like an insult if you ask me. I bet O'Barr felt the same as well. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/01/24 Full Review Jason V I'm only giving this a half-star because you can't give it zero stars. This is what you get in this movie: 1. a strung-out Edward Furlong who is long past his prime (if he ever had one) as an actor. 2. David Boreanaz, playing Angelus from Buffy. 3. Dennis Hopper doing a patently offensive take on a hispanic hip-hop cult leader (he even refers to Satan as, "The O.G." - are you KIDDING ME??) 4. Tara Reid...okay, she might be the only bright spot in the flick. She's always fun to watch. Once again, the story at its core isn't bad, but it's confused, it doesn't know where it's going, what kind of film it wants to be, and it's just a mess from start to finish. A horrible way to end the Crow series...until the 2024 remake, anyway, which doesn't promise to make things much better. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/04/24 Full Review shayne c When I heard Eddie Furlong was gonna be in a crow film I jumped at the chance to see it. I guess You need a true appreciation for cult film to enjoy it. I gave it 3 and a half stars because it really wasn't what you would expect but they step it up with all star casting. Furlongs Crow was not great but not horrible like it's made to seem. The only one to me who really did great acting in the film to me was David Boreanaz and Tara Reid. The rest of the cast may as well have been reading for a stage play. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/16/24 Full Review Read all reviews
