The recent remake of 'The Crow,' starring Bill Skarsgård, has flopped at the box office, earning only $4.6 million against a production budget of $50 million. Alex Proyas, the director of the original 1994 film, has openly mocked the reboot's poor performance, calling it a 'cynical cash-grab' and sharing scathing reviews on social media. Proyas expressed his disdain for the remake, emphasizing the legacy of Brandon Lee, who died tragically while filming the original, and suggesting that the new film tarnishes that legacy. Critics have given the reboot a low score of 18% on Rotten Tomatoes, with many labeling it as one of the worst films of the year. Proyas has consistently critiqued the remake, stating that it should not attempt to rehash the original's success. The film's director, Rupert Sanders, has attempted to distance the project from being classified as a remake, claiming it is an adaptation of a comic book.
