yesterday the trailer for the crow (2024) popped up on my fyp and the misinterpretation of core of the graphic novel just fucking sends me.
the horror at the centre of the novel, the utter despair and pain that shroud Eric, both in the source material and the 1994 movie, works because Eric and Shelly were a normal couple of lovers. It's because of such mundane tenderness that the horror of the murder leaves such a staggering and profound impact on the viewer, the violence is totally uncalled for and highlights how humanity's depravity can befall anyone, even the kindest of people (following the drammatic personal story of O'barr).
twisting Eric and Shelly's backstory into a kind of wattpad misfits' one, the viewer looses the element of immedesimation that held inside the emotional value of the movie. By depriving both characters of their normality the intimate sorrow is lost. What was a desolate tale of personal loss, to me, feels more like the search for the next halloween costume.
