The Crow: Wicked Prayer

Synopsis: Jimmy Cuervo is a down-on-his-luck ex-con living in a polluted mining town on a reservation that would run him out of town if not for the remainder of his probation. With his time nearly finished, he plans to start a new life with his girlfriend Lily , and leave the town for good. But Luc Crash and Lola Byrne head up a local gang of local Satanists who murder Jimmy and Lily in a brutally ritualistic slaying that they hope will conjure the rebirth of the Antichrist. When the legend of the Crow returns Jimmy from the dead, Jimmy heads out on a one-man path of vengeance that will lead him to El Nino, the leader of the gang that Luc and Lola are in.

Like some more salsa with that?

Get back to work. or "m docking

your severance pay when the mine closes.

I fear that you have awakened a sleeping

giant. and filled him with a terrible resolve.

Get back to work.

Save our jobs. Save our jobs.

Save our jobs. Save our jobs.

Attention all units.

Riot in progress at Lake Ravasu Mine.

- Gunfire on the scene.

- Cover his face. Cover his face.

- Cover him up now.

He who liveth by the sword

shall die by the sword.

He who liveth

by the sword shall die by the sword.

An eye for an eye

will make you blind.

An eye for an eye

will make you blind.

He who liveth by the sword

shall die by the sword...

-

- Somebody shot the priest!

- Get him!

Get the gun. get the gun...

With War. there is no substitute for victory.

Lead the way. Mr. Crash.

lt's your wedding night.

you dirty old bastard.

So. this one time. "m buying the hookers.

Cuidado. homes.

Your local Satanic cult is back in black.

The Four Horsemen ride again.

No prisoners. homes.

Just kidding.

How's it going. Lo?

Better. now that "m with you.

- Will you marry me. Lola Byrne?

- Till death do us part. Luc Crash.

Praise the Lord.

it's almost time for Jesus to rise up.

As preacher. I expect the flock to be in

the church tomorrow on Easter morning.

As tribal chairman. I invite you

to party the night away at Rave-N Fest.

He found himself in mystic places.

Tonight. as we celebrate

the birth of the crow.

and the coming

of our Raven Aztec Casino.

Hallelujah. hallelujah!

Praise Jesus!

And don't forget to eat

your 1 2 lucky grapes for dinner.

One for each month of the coming year.

This Spanish custom worked wonders

for our conquistador conquerors.

and it'll work wonders for you.

'Cause the name of our lucky tribe

is the Raven Aztecs.

Barnaby. there comes

a time in every man's life

when he's just got to face the fact that

the contents of his fridge just ain't cutting it.

And now. I want to introduce

our shaman and my daughter.

Lily Ignites The Dawn.

In times like these.

when our community is divided.

and we hear calls for vengeance.

it's important to remember the old stories.

Killer! Murderer!

We are told

that when someone dies...

Convict!

...the crow carries their soul

to the land of the dead.

- Then sometimes. just sometimes...

- You hear me? I called you convict.

-...the crow can bring that soul back...

- Sh*t. here he comes.

...to release it of its burden.

To put the wrong things right.

What gives the crow his strength?

Not hatred.

or bitterness.

or anger.

His strength is love.

-

Come on. baby.

Rave-N Fest? No.

No. Never again.

Come on. I want them

to see you through my eyes.

Lily.

I'm off parole at midnight.

We can hit the coast

before anybody notices.

I want them to notice.

I do.

I love you. Jimmy!

You put too much faith in people.

I believe in a lot of things.

Even you. Jimmy Cuervo.

I am what I am.

If you want to escape from here.

you gotta let it go. You gotta let it all go.

I can't. Not without you.

Now. that kind of belief

will get you locked up.

Set me free. Warden.

You know what time I get off.

Don't be late.

Lily. "m gonna let it all go.

I swear on your perfect blue eyes.

Lily!

Have you lost your mind. sis?

lt's a great day to be alive. ain't it?

lt's takedown time.

Spoke to your parole officer today.

Oh. nice suit. white trash.

Did you rob a grave?

Your jurisdiction ends

on that side of the road. a**hole.

There isn't much people

on either side of the road can agree on.

Except that nobody likes you.

Jimmy Cuervo.

Goddamn. I guess I'll fire my publicist.

You better be stopping in to say goodbye.

Are you f***ing kidding me?

You're lucky.

Bullet's still in your hand. a**hole.

Come midnight tonight. you're free to go.

She's not.

Lil?

Oh. hell... "m just gonna say it.

Lily lgnites The Dawn...

Roses? Lilies would have been better.

But hey. it's your funeral.

And you're late. lnjun lover.

- Come on.

- Nobody keeps the Grim Reaper waiting.

- Luc!

- Blue-eyed lnjun.

And a cold-hearted killer.

Just what the witch doctor ordered.

"Romeo. oh. Romeo.

wherefore art thou Romeo?"

Looks like Juliet's left hanging.

- Hang these. you b*tch.

Ugh. God!

I never had the option

to love someone like you.

Is she a firecracker or what?

- Didn't I tell you. Lo?

- Yes. Luc. You told me.

Appetizer was tasty.

Bring on the main dish.

She doesn't deserve this.

Please.

Please! Luc!

I always liked you. kid.

You should have just stayed

on your side of the road.

Perd?name.

- "m sorry.

- Jimmy...

The object of war

is not to die for your beliefs.

but to make the other

poor bastards die for theirs.

Ever since we were kids in school.

I always thought

your eyes were so pretty. Lily.

They've seen things.

Mine?

They've never seen sh*t.

Sometimes. if your eyes can't see.

you have to trade 'em in for a new pair.

Time's a-wasting. Lo.

Go in peace with our love.

You will always be in our hearts.

Your eyes will watch over us.

Your spirit will always be nearby.

We will treasure your memory

until we meet again.

Dude. that's Lily.

Take flight. Mother.

Magnificent f***ers. aren't they?

You wanted to bone her since you were 1 2.

Yeah.

- Keep talking sh*t about my girl.

- Go get 'em. Tonto.

"By sun's dying flame.

and Hades' wicked might"

"l peer into the darkness"

"To take hold of the light"

Now I have the eyes of a shaman

to unlock the spell.

By sunup. you'll be Satan

and that b*tch's tribe will be history.

Such a shame.

Without her eyes.

she'll be lost in the spirit world forever.

Luc.

Luc.

You are gonna f***ing die.

Ah. Jimbo. you're breaking my heart.

Hearts were made to be broken.

"The killer's heart by love redeemed"

"ln Satan's claw like ruby gleamed"

I feel good.

Pestilence? Famine?

Take these rags to the dump and burn 'em.

This place has been tearing me down.

But "m finally crawling to the top.

Sh*t. That's the freezer

Momma used to lock me up in.

She'd say. "lt's damnation in there.

You ain't never coming out."

Damnation sure is a happy place.

Yeah. maybe.

If you're dead.

Kick us down a sign.

What do you see with your new eyes?

I see the devil rising up.

He's gonna make

all your dreams come true.

Eat up. Partake in the deviled ham.

eat of the deviled eggs. and for dessert.

feast on devi"s food cake.

Al flambeau.

lt's all been dusted

with Lola's magical peyote mix.

What is this?

Hm?

Have we all forgotten...

..whose side you're on?

Who's been holding you down?

Who's gonna shut down the mines.

putting your families out of work.

just so they can open up a casino?

War.

Your people. they were enslaved.

Hm?

Why ain't there a goddamn

government-backed casino

in every street corner of the 'hood? Hm?

For every one of them that dies.

ten of us may die.

But in the end. it's they who will tire of War.
