The Crow 30th anniversary showing




     Watching the 30th anniversary showing of The Crow at the Regal Theatre this year, was a nostalgic experience that brought me back to my teenage years. I went with my husband, and it was such a thrill to finally see this film on the big screen. When The Crow originally came out, I was only 14, and since it was rated R, I missed out on seeing it in theaters. I still remember saving up my money to buy the VHS, and once I had it, I watched it over and over.


     I absolutely loved everything about The Crow when I was younger. The dark, brooding atmosphere and, of course, the music. It was through this movie that I discovered bands like Nine Inch Nails and The Cure, which became a huge part of my life. Hearing that iconic soundtrack again, this time in a theater, was like stepping into a time machine. The music still hits hard, and the story of vengeance and love lost felt just as powerful as it did the first time I watched it.


     It was also a great experience to see so many others at the theater who were clearly long-time fans like me. The place was filled with goths, metalheads, and others with a love for all things dark and alternative, most of them around my age. It was like a mini-reunion of people who had grown up with The Crow as part of their lives. There was something really special about being surrounded by that energy, and it made me so happy to share this moment with others who felt the same way.


     I’m grateful I had the chance to see The Crow in all its gritty, gothic glory on the big screen. It brought back so many memories, and the film still holds up, both the story and the music. It was an experience I won’t forget.
