In the where are they now department: Lance Mungia, director of the excellent Six-String Samurai, just wrapped up The Crow: Wicked Prayer. It's got a surprisingly good cast for something that looks like it'll go straight to video: Edward Furlong isn't bad, Dennis Hopper is good (and will appear in anything, granted), Danny Trejo is good... and there's David Boreanaz and Tara Reid for eye candy. And Macy Grey! Hm, and Tito Ortiz (no holds barred martial arts fighter) is in it. But at that point we're well past "surprisingly good cast," I think. Still, that's a lot of fairly real people.

Did you know Kirsten Dunst was in the third Crow movie? Me either. Rental time!

Anyhow, Lance Mungia plus a half-decent cast means I'll keep an eye out for this one.

So, is Eddie still strung out, or did he kick the horse?

I loved Ahnuld explaining why they wouldn't bring him back for T3. "Ve cahn't afford the in-shoe-rants."

I think your faith may be mis-placed. I'm pretty sure that Trejo and Hopper can't save another Crow movie. And David Boreanaz is no Michael Wincott. Hell, he's no Richard Brooks.

Still, it might not suck. It might not. I'm not holding my breath though.

Same here. I'm just glad Lance Mungia is getting work.

It's not even a sequel per se. It's set in the same world with the same premise, which is the right way to do this kind of thing. Someone else dies, comes back as the Crow, kicks ass, takes names, smiles creepily.

Yeah, it's gonna suck.
