We have done our fair share of bitching around here about the forthcoming reboot of The Crow that Relativity Media is putting together. While that movie is likely to be a gigantic train wreck and what I consider a gigantic kick in the teeth to the legacy of Brandon Lee, the film making history of Alex Proyas and the writing of James O’Barr, I can be thankful that I still have the option of watching the original.
And now, thanks to the folks at Lionsgate and Miramax, I can finally watch it in all of its HD glory on Blu-ray. Check out the Blu-ray trailer and details on picking up a copy for yourself below!

Synopsis:
A poetic guitarist Eric Draven (Brandon Lee) is brought back to life by a crow a year after he and his fiancée are murdered on the eve of their wedding. The crow guides him through the land of the living, and leads him to his despicable killers. One by one, Eric gives these thugs a taste of their own medicine. However their leader Top-Dollar (Michael Wincott), a world-class crime lord, will soon learn the legend of the crow and the secret to the vigilante’s invincibility.
The Crow starring Brandon Lee, Michael Wincott, Rochelle Davis, Ernie Hudson and Ling Bai hits Blu-ray on October 18th, 2011.
