Trivia: Chad Stahelski was a close friend of Brandon Lee and was working as his stunt-double on the film. After Lee tragically died, Stahelski served as his body double for unfinished scenes. Stahelski later became famous as a film director, helming all four "John Wick" films. Due to Lee's death, he is reportedly incredibly strict on his sets when it comes to firearms safety.

Trivia: Aside from the tragic death of Brandon Lee, the film's production was reportedly extremely difficult. A carpenter suffered electric burns in an accident. A crew-member injured himself with a screwdriver. Another crew-member crashed his car into a studio workshop. And a grip-truck caught fire. Drug use was also rampant on-set (much to the annoyance of star Brandon Lee and director Alex Proyas, who were trying to remain professional and do their best), which may explain some of the accidents.

Trivia: The film originally had a number of scenes featuring a decomposing, zombie-like character called the "Skull Cowboy," who was played by character-actor Michael Berryman. The character would act as a sort-of "spirit guide" for Eric Draven, and do things like explain the rules of the crow to him, and offer him advice. All of his scenes were ultimately scrapped, as they were deemed unnecessary.

Trivia: Michael Massee, the actor who shot the prop gun that inadvertently killed Brandon Lee, was deeply affected by the event. He took a year off from working on any projects to simply relax and deal with his emotional state. He also reportedly refused to watch the finished film, and still hadn't seen it at the time of his unfortunate passing in 2016 from cancer.

Trivia: Original "Crow" comic creator James O'Barr donated most of his earnings from the film because he felt it was "blood money" after the death of Brandon Lee. The only things he bought with it were a car for his mother and some speakers. The rest went to charity.

Trivia: Co-writer David J. Schow has a cameo as one of the goons that Eric takes out during the big shootout. (He's the guy who gets dragged under the table right after the first goon gets shot).
