According to The Numbers, The Crow debuted in 2,752 North American venues on August 23 and ended its theatrical run on September 12 with a gross of $9,528 from 297 locations. During its domestic run, The Crow grossed nearly $9.3 million domestically and $6.2 million internationally for a worldwide tally of $15.5 million.
According to Variety, The Crow had a $50 million production budget before prints and advertising.
The Crow made its digital streaming debut via premium video on demand on September 13, a day after the film ended its theatrical run.
In the original, Eric and Shelly were normal people we could relate to and the other actors and scenes felt real. Now we have a hot-model couple and bad guy archetypes, all in a “gritty” world that doesn’t resonate with us.
As an aside, crime was looking pretty damned bad in 1994 and we thought The Crow was a near-future reality.
