     I saw The Crow when it was in the theatres. What impacted me the most was the bad guys. It was the first movie I saw where the bad guys weren't just bad they were evil in a rather postmodern way. As "The Crow" hunted them down, one by one, he utiized their own individual evil devices againt them to extract justice. Combine that with a head—banging soundtrack and you have an instant cult classic. Of course there is much much more to the movie than warrents discussion at this point.

I have to comment....the tune is good but this album SUCKS  

However, I did learn that Gordon has the guitar credits, so it was worth it.

Not bad, but it's still hard to listen to anything from the Femmes if doesn't come close to matching the aural and emotional intensity of their debut.

Good song. Very different from most of their songs.

This is a great soundtrack. But, if you put it on...you better be ready to bang your head!

For a decade or so I was pretty sure the Femmes were a more than usually embittered band of feminist dames.
I had no real problems with the sound and the husky singer lady, I kinda liked it but wondered how they would sound if they cheered the hell up for a moment.
Then I found out that they where all guys and the edginess went away...

So very true. A great movie and an even greater comic. However when I went to the opening night of The Crow here in Denmark I guess we were about 15 people in the cinema...

Yuck. The song is bad and the album art is likely a rip off.

So different from their usual, but I still like it! I like pretty much the entire Crow soundtrack, except for the Danzig song.

I dunno. Their debut album was a hill of fun, and still is an incredible. But I haven't heard a thing from them since, including this boring ditty, that has come close that incredible album.
