It Can't Rain All The Time...
In time to celebrate the film's 30th Anniversary, Paramount unleashes Bandon Lee's tragic epic on 4K UHD. Fans of the film can choose from a standard 4K release or a deluxe Slipcover SteelBook
1994's The Crow features Brandon Lee's incredible final performance after a fatal on-set accident took his life. Based on J.O. Barr's iconic graphic novel, the film was an impressive success at the box office. The film would quickly obtain true Cult Classic status spawning a slew of cheap, dreary imitations with a trio of less-than-impress followup films. Now with a new film on the horizon directed by Rupert Sanders and starring Bill Skarsgård and Danny Huston - Paramount will give the original film it's due respect on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray May 7th.

Celebrate the 30th anniversary of the thrilling, cult classic THE CROW when it arrives for the first time on 4K Ultra HD™ May 7, 2024 from Paramount Home Entertainment.
Originally released on May 13, 1994, THE CROW entranced audiences and critics alike with its gothic aesthetic, breathtaking action, and Brandon Lee’s soulful performance at the center of director Alex Proyas’ revenge fantasy. A sleeper box office hit, the film developed a passionate cult following that spawned three sequels, a television series, a video game, toys, and novels. Based on the comic book saga of the same name by James O’Barr, THE CROW delivers an action-packed thriller bursting with hypnotic style and dazzling visuals.
Newly remastered, THE CROW will be available nationally on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc™ with new and legacy bonus content and access to a Digital copy of the film. In addition, there will be a limited-edition SteelBook™ with a 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Disc and access to a Digital copy of the film, featuring an o-sleeve with a cutout of a crow that lifts to reveal a portrait of Brandon Lee with his guitar.
Both releases include a brand-new three-part documentary created for the 30th anniversary entitled “Shadows & Pain: Designing The Crow.” The new piece is a fascinating deep dive with legendary production designer Alex McDowell, who discusses all aspects of designing the 1994 classic, as well as his experience working with visionary director Alex Proyas and the film’s late star, Brandon Lee.
Also, for the first time on disc, the releases include a conversation with the late Hollywood legend Edward R. Pressman who discussed his prolific career on the occasion of Sideshow Collectibles’ release of a limited figure for THE CROW.
New and legacy bonus content included on all three 4K Ultra HD releases is detailed below:
