Directed by: Lance Mungia
Starring: Tara Reid, Yuji Okumoto, Marcus Chong, Tito Ortiz
Visible crew/equipment: You can blatantly see lights in the water when Jimmy is brought back to life, which makes no sense at a garbage dump at a closed mine in the nighttime.
Visible crew/equipment: When War is blasting the fence in the beginning, you can see wires for the squibs running along the metal fence.
Visible crew/equipment: When Luc shows El Niño his "666" marks and Niño says: "Well, all right", you can see a camera shadow move across El Niño.
Revealing mistake: When Jimmy and War are fighting over the gun near the end of the movie, you can see that many shots are reversed, as the fire behind them is not burning upwards like regular fire, but appears to be "sucking" downwards, back into the barrels.
Luc Crash: What happens to an angel that loses his wings?
Lola Byrne: He falls.
Trivia: The original script for this fourth entry in the series was titled "The Crow: Lazarus." It was about a wannabe rapper (who goes by the stage-name "Lazarus") who is murdered in a drive-by, and his journey to piece together the mystery of who set him up to be killed. The film was intended to be the first movie in the series with an African America lead, and controversial rapper Eminem was intended to play the villain. After the project fell apart, the script was hastily re-written to be (very) loosely based around a 2000 novel ("Wicked Prayer") inspired by the series, and the budget was drastically slashed, resulting in this film.

Answer: As I understand it, it all had to do with a spat between the director of the original Crow movie (Alex Proyas, who had "approval" of all the subsequent Crow movies) the producer of the Crow movie franchise, Jeff Most, and Miramax. Miramax eventually caved in favor of the producer and it was made into a "non-Crow entity" when Miramax reportedly signed Eminem to play the bad guy.
