The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

The Crow: Salvation was the third movie based on The Crow comic by James O'Barr. It was directed by Bharat Nalluri and released direct to video in 2000 after its distributor cancelled the intended theatrical release. The original movie gained a cult following while the second (The Crow: City of Angels) was poorly received.

Alex Corvis (Eric Mabius) is framed for the murder of his girlfriend Lauren Randall (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe), who was brutally stabbed 53 times. Three years later, he is executed in the electric chair for it. A mysterious man containing a scar on his left arm made a point of revealing that scar to Corvis as he was strapped in the Electric Chair and being electrocuted. Soon after the execution, Alex is resurrected by a crow, so Alex can clear his name and get revenge. He peels off the burnt flesh from his face, revealing his crow appearance.
