Brandon Bruce Lee (李国豪Cantonese: Léi Gwokhòu Pinyin: LǐGuóháo; February 1, 1965 –March 31, 1993) was an American actor of Chinese, German, English and Swedish descent. He was the son of the late legendary martial arts film star Bruce Lee.
Early life
Brandon Lee was born in Oakland, California, to the legendary martial artist actor Bruce Lee and his wife Linda Emery. The family moved to Los Angeles, California when Brandon was three months old, but when offers for film roles became limited for his father the family moved back to his father's childhood home of Hong Kong in 1971; Bruce Lee made three films there between 1971 and 1973.
When Brandon was eight, his father died suddenly from a cerebral edema. After her husband's death, Linda Lee moved the family (including daughter Shannon, who was born in 1969) back to the United States. They lived briefly in his mother's hometown of Seattle (where Bruce Lee is buried), and then in Los Angeles, where Brandon grew up in the affluent area of Rolling Hills. According to his mother, he was "a handful" - "either the teacher's pet, or the teacher's nightmare."
He attended high school at Chadwick School, but was expelled for insubordination three months before graduating. He received his GED in 1983, and then went to Emerson College in Boston, Massachusetts where he majored in theater. After one year, Lee moved to New York City where he took acting lessons at the famed Lee Strasberg Academy and was part of the American New Theatre group founded by his friend John Lee Hancock. The bulk of Brandon's martial arts instruction came from Bruce Lee's top student Dan Inosanto.
Early career
Lee returned to Los Angeles in 1985, where he worked for Ruddy Morgan Productions as a script reader. He was asked to audition for a role by casting director Lyn Stalmaster and made his acting debut in Kung Fu: The Movie, which was a feature-length television movie and a follow-up to the 1970s television series Kung Fu. The film aired on ABC on Brandon's 21st birthday on February 1, 1986. In Kung Fu: The Movie, Lee played Chung Wang, the suspected son of Kwai Chang Caine (played by David Carradine). Towards the end of the film, Chung Wang asks Caine if he is his father. The question seems somewhat ironic since in real life Brandon's father was the chief contender for the role of Caine in the original TV series.
Herbie Pilato, in his 1993 book The Kung Fu Book of Caine: The Complete Guide to TV's First Mystical Eastern Western, commented on the casting of the original Kung Fu series:
Before the filming of the Kung Fu TV series began, there was some discussion as to whether or not an Asian actor should play Kwai Chang Caine. Bruce Lee was considered for the role. In 1971, Bruce Lee wasn't the cult film hero he later became for his roles in The Big Boss (1971), Fist of Fury (1972), Way of the Dragon (1972), Enter the Dragon (1973), and Game of Death (1978). At that point he was best known as Kato on TV's Green Hornet (1966-1967). After Bruce Lee lost the part to Carradine, he went back to China, where he made The Big Boss, the film that began his legendary career in martial arts movies, (page 157).
Later that same year Lee got his first major film role in the Hong Kong action thriller Legacy of Rage in which he starred alongside Michael Wong and Bolo Yeung, the latter of whom also appeared in his father's last film, Enter the Dragon. The film was made in Cantonese, and directed by Ronny Yu. It was also the only film Lee made in Hong Kong.
Lee then went to star in another television film, titled Kung Fu: The Next Generation (1987) which was another follow-up to the television series Kung Fu. In this film the story moved to the present day, and centered on the story of Johnny Caine (Lee), who is the great-grandson of Kwai Chang Caine.
Lee then made a guest appearance in the short-lived American television series Ohara (1988) as Kenji, son of title character Lt. Ohara (played by Pat Morita).
Later career
In 1990 he starred in his first English language B-grade film, Laser Mission, which was filmed cheaply in South Africa in 1988. In 1991, he starred opposite Dolph Lundgren in the buddy cop action thriller Showdown in Little Tokyo which marked his first studio film and American film debut. Lee signed a multi-picture deal with 20th Century Fox in 1991. He had his first starring role in the action thriller Rapid Fire in 1992, and was scheduled to do two more films for them.
In 1992, Lee landed the lead role of Eric Draven, an undead vigilante avenging his murder, and that of his fiancée, in the movie adaptation of The Crow, a popular underground comic book. About his character Lee said, "He has something he has to do and he is forced to put aside his own pain long enough to go do it".
It would be Brandon Lee's last film. Filming began on February 1, 1993, which was his 28th birthday.
Death
Lee in his final film, The Crow (1994), which he was filming when he died.On March 31, 1993, there were eight days left before the shooting schedule for The Crow was to be completed. The scene being filmed on this day involved Lee's character Eric Draven walking into his apartment and discovering his girlfriend being raped by thugs. This would subsequently lead to Eric being brutally killed, along with his girlfriend, by the thugs. Actor Michael Massee, playing Funboy, one of the film's villains, was supposed to fire a gun at Lee as he walked into his apartment with groceries.
Because the movie's second unit team were running behind schedule, it was decided that
dummy cartridges—cartridges that outwardly appear to be functional, but contain no gunpowder or primer—would be made from real cartridges, which had been brought to the set earlier in production. Bruce Merlin, an effects technician, dismantled the live cartridges by removing the bullets, emptying out the gunpowder, detonating the primer and reinserting the bullets. This rendered the cartridges inoperative but realistic in appearance. Merlin and his propmaster, Daniel Kuttner, took initiative to create some blanks by removing live cartridges and replacing the gunpowder with firework powder; the bullets were not reinserted.
Later, a cartridge with only a primer and a bullet was fired in a pistol; this caused a squib load, in which the primer provided enough force to push the bullet out of the cartridge and into the barrel of the revolver, where it became stuck. The malfunction went unnoticed by the crew, and the same gun was used again later to shoot the death scene, having been re-loaded with blanks. However, the squib load was still lodged in the barrel, and was propelled by the blank cartridge's explosion out of the barrel and into Lee's body. Although the bullet was traveling much slower than a normally fired bullet would be, the bullet's large size and the nearly point-blank firing distance made it powerful enough to severely wound Lee as cameras were rolling at the Carolco Studios in Wilmington, North Carolina. Seconds later, director Alex Proyas stopped the scene, but Lee remained on the floor. Stuntman Coordinator (and Lee's friend) Jeff Imada ran over to him with a paramedic, and discovered a thin slit an inch below and to the right of his navel. By this time, Lee had slipped into unconsciousness and was rushed to the hospital where doctors discovered that a bullet was the cause of the damage. They fought for five hours in an attempt to save him, but at 1:04 PM he was pronounced dead at the age of 28.
His funeral was held several days later; he was buried next to his father in Lake View Cemetery, Capitol Hill, Seattle, Washington. The following day, a memorial service was held in Los Angeles, California. Jeff Imada, Lee's closest friend; and Eliza Hutton, Lee's intended bride, were so shocked they couldn't speak, while his mother, Linda Lee, reminded everyone, "Brandon would want this to be a happy occasion; we are here to celebrate his life." The footage of the incident was soon destroyed without ever being developed.
The shooting was ruled as an accident, although many fans suspected foul play. (Bruce Lee's own death in 1973, at the age of 32, apparently from a reaction to an analgesic he had taken, was also considered suspicious.) Bruce Lee's character in the 1978 version of Game of Death is shot in a similar fashion. His character, like that of his son in The Crow, returns from the dead to get revenge on his adversaries.
Some fans also suspected that Lee's death was all part of the theory of the curse which was also suspected when Lee's father died. The tragic circumstances surrounding Lee's death also eerily mirrored what had happened to his father as Lee had died nearly 20 years after his father; both deaths were very mysterious and Brandon would also die before the release of a film that would have been his breakthrough role.
Legacy
After his death, his fiancée Eliza Hutton and his mother supported director Alex Proyas' decision to complete The Crow. At the time of Lee's death, only eight days were left before completion of the movie. A majority of the film had already been completed with Lee and only a few scenes had to be done.
To complete the film, a stunt double (Chad Stahelski), who was a friend of Lee's at the famed Inosanto Academy was used as a stand-in and special effects were used to add Lee's face onto the stunt double. Another stunt double named Jeff Cadiente was also used to complete the movie (Cadiente was already Brandon Lee's stunt double on The Crow and they were also good friends). These scenes were filmed after Lee's death:
Eric Draven's death in flashbacks (this was the scene Brandon was filming at the time he had died);
a scene with Eric walking into his apartment after returning from the dead was digitally composited from a scene of Lee walking into an alleyway with raindrops added (the rest of the scenes in the apartment were all done with the double);
Lee's face was digitally composited onto the stunt double when Eric puts on make-up in front of a mirror and walks towards the broken down window of his apartment;
When Sarah (Rochelle Davis) visits Eric, his face is not seen as it is actually the stunt double.
When Eric Draven plays his guitar on the rooftops it is one of Brandon Lee's body doubles.
During T-Bird's demise Eric Draven does not speak, nor is his face shown; the close-up of Draven's face was from a deleted shot.
After the shootout at Top Dollar's the scene where Eric Draven is running on the rooftops from the police was filmed with a double and his escape in Officer Albrecht (Ernie Hudson)'s car.
The Crow was released in May 1994 and became a box office hit. The film is dedicated to Lee and his fiancée Eliza Hutton. They were to have been married on April 17, 1993, in Mexico. Lee is survived by his mother and sister.
The grave site of Brandon Lee and his father, Bruce LeeIn an interview just prior to his death, Brandon quoted a passage from Paul Bowles' book The Sheltering Sky that he had chosen for his wedding invitations; it is now inscribed on his tombstone:
"Because we do not know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well. And yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number really. How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, an afternoon that is so deeply a part of your being that you cannot conceive of your life without it? Perhaps four, or five times more? Perhaps not even that. How many more times will you watch the full moon rise? Perhaps twenty. And yet it all seems limitless..."
The Interview can be seen on VHS and DVD of the The Crow.

Personal life
Brandon Lee and his Fiancée Eliza Hutton in 1992. In 1990, Brandon met Eliza "Lisa" Hutton at director Renny Harlin's office, located at the headquarters of 20th Century Fox. Hutton was working as a personal assistant to Harlin, and later became a Story Editor for Stillwater Productions, in 1991. Lee and Harlin shared an agent at the time at William Morris Agency. Lee was immediately smitten, and soon the two were very much in love. They moved in together in 1991 and became engaged in October of 1992.
They were to be married in Mexico on April 17, 1993, a week after Lee was to complete filming on The Crow - just 18 days after he died. At the time of Lee's death, Hutton was working as a Casting Assistant and was on set of his film The Crow so much that she was later credited with being Brandon's on-set assistant. After his death, Hutton petitioned to have gun safety regulations tightened on film sets.

西雅图湖景墓地(与父亲李小龙作伴)。遗作是《乌鸦》。
李国豪把耗资1400万美元的《乌鸦》一片视作他演艺生涯的一个突破口。掐指算来,该片应当是他较有影响的第四部影片,他非常希望自己在此片中能有上佳的发挥,至少也要超出他的前几部影片,
李国豪和父亲李小龙墓地
诸如《小东京对垒》《龙霸天下》等。因此,他几乎完全处于超负荷的工作状态之中,为了保证在片场中具备充沛的体力,从2月份接片并投入拍摄以后,他几乎每晚8点都要去健身房进行长达1小时的体育锻炼,经常搞得筋疲力尽。《乌鸦》一片的摄制组为了节省1400万美元的预算资金,不得不加班加点地进行拍摄,以确保该片能按期拍完。摄制组的全体人员全都感到负荷沉重,心理压力也异常巨大,连导演都承认,演职员着实太辛苦了,连喘口粗气的机会都不易得。就是身强体壮的李国豪也不时地摇头苦叹,他常对同事们说,没想到演电影竟会如此累人。
不过,李国豪丝毫没有放松,越是劳累就越是激起他“苦干成精”的本能冲动。他很清楚,如果《乌鸦》一片再次打响,那将对他意味着什么。他用玩笑来驱除倦意,让幽默来打发急噪情绪。3月25日那天,他对影片的服饰顾问说,“我身上的血要比你的多几倍。”他指的当然是涂抹在他腹部的道具假血,一眼望去,也真怕人,一汪一汪的假血顺着系在他腹部的腰带往下淌。他哪里能料到,此情此景,在随后的那一天,即3月31日深夜,竟会真的在他身上重现,当然,那时流淌出来的,殷红殷红的,完全是真正的男儿热血了。一场真正的悲剧也正是从子弹射穿他的腹部,致使血流不止开始的。如果这场悲剧未曾发生,那么,李国豪也许因此片一跃而成国际级的武打电影明星,正如其父李小龙20年前,即1973年以《
猛龙过江》而晋身国际影星一样。如果这悲剧未曾发生,那么,今天的李国豪也许刚刚掸尽蜜月旅途的风尘,在自己的卧室里与新婚妻子互吐衷肠,因为他原本是定于在4月8日摄完此片之后,于4月17日与好莱坞制片助理,29岁的丽莎·休顿完婚的。
然而,凄惨的现实却是:李国豪倒在摄影片场里的血泊之中,12小时之后,即4月1日下午1:04分,在附近的一所医院里与世长辞了。从应声栽倒到最后合眼,他连一个字都没留下,救护他的医生
穆里对人们说:“布兰登·李失血过多,鲜血几乎从他浑身上下的每一处慢慢地渗出来。”李国豪除了留下点点滴滴殷红的鲜血外,留下的大概就只有无尽的疑惑和着无穷的悲哀了……
当李国豪倒在血泊之中后,在场的所有演职员几乎完全愣住了,稍后数秒,缓过劲来的人们立刻冲向李国豪的身旁,33岁的紧急医护人员莱德·巴塞被召到现场进行紧急救护,随后又将李国豪抬上了救护车。飞快驶向距此30分钟之遥的新汉诺威急救中心,经过4个小时的紧急手术之后,穆里医生遗憾地表示,病人已决无成活希望。穆里医生透露说,李国豪腹部有一个4厘米宽的伤口,X光照片显示,在他脊柱上嵌有一个金属物体。医生在李国豪腹部找不到子弹头。警方决定,4月1日晚些时候,将对李国豪的尸体进行解剖分析。
该片的俄执行制片人
罗森说,李国豪的身上系有一个制造特别声音效果的装置,当枪弹发射时,这个装置便会发出爆炸,形成非常逼真的电影效果。在放枪时,
李国豪正站在离枪嘴7米远的地方。 麦克·马塞发射的道具手枪应当是一支空枪,发射的应当是一发空包弹,所谓空包弹不过是毫无射击力度的空壳子弹,里面塞一些卡片或棉花填料,发射时声音煞是逼真,与真子弹几乎相差无几,而且还异常响亮。《乌鸦》摄制组要求对装有“子弹”的手枪必须进行十分仔细的检查。该片摄制组严格按照规定这样做了,可为什么还是发生了如此不幸的事件呢?
4月1日,警方在对李国豪尸体进行解剖以后,发表一份戏剧性的公告,使人们觉得李国豪之死忽然变得蹊跷起来。警方的公告称,李国豪的死因,明显可以从验尸时发现的一颗点四四口径子弹找到突破口。这一验尸报告公布以后,立刻使人们产生了李国豪可能是遭人故意暗算的猜测。李国豪的经纪人在获悉这一新线索后立即向公众表示,为什么一颗点四四口径的子弹会在李国豪的腹部发现?虽然他不是法官,但是他要求警方立刻就此事进行细致调查,追查凶手。至此,这宗意外事故不再被单纯地视为李国豪身上的特别效果装置出差错所致。
对于点四四口径子弹的发现,该片枪械顾问詹姆斯·莫耶先生认为,对此不必进行过份戏剧化的渲染,他认为如果道具手枪弹膛内留有一颗不会发射的哑弹(这种情况在道具手枪的使用过程中经常发生)的话,那么枪就很可能被卡住,而当空包弹发射时,哑弹弹头上的一个小金属片很可能随气流一齐射出,有时甚至随子弹一齐射出,如果是这种情况,那么李国豪腹部的点四四口径子弹就显得不足为怪了。他不认为这是一场蓄谋的暗算,而仅仅是因为枪械检查过程中疏忽所致。
洛杉矶的另一名枪械专家分析得更为透彻,他认为,在一般情况下,一颗点四四口径子弹可以射穿一个在15英尺远的人的身体,李国豪当时正站在这个射程范围内。但解剖人员找不到子弹出口的伤口。他说,这说明,子弹飞行的速度比正常的要慢———如果在开空枪时把卡住的哑弹打出,这种情况也是可能的。速度较慢的子弹也可能是造成李国豪枪伤伤口大的原因,因为子弹飞行速度越慢,子弹击中目标的洞也就越大。
各种分析猜测仍在继续,李国豪神秘死亡的现实却无法改变。他生前的一些好友追叙说,李国豪非常容易谈到死亡这个话题,谈起死亡他似乎总是滔滔不绝。李国豪有一次曾就《乌鸦》一片发表意见,如果他死后又有机会复活的话,他就会觉得生活才有真正的意义。想不到一语成谶,只可惜现实中的他不可能如拍片般复活了。
1973年7月20日,李小龙在电影《
死亡的游戏》拍摄未完成时突然去世,《死亡的游戏》成为其遗作(现流行版本《死亡游戏》基本是由替身演员和镜头剪辑而成,但与李小龙最初构思差距非常大)。不少李小龙迷在李国豪去世后就评说,《死亡游戏》已经预示了李小龙、李国豪的死亡在所难免,又说明李家传奇几乎全都是“死亡传奇”的祸因。

李国豪童年是在跌打滚爬的一天又一天中度过的,他的
童话世界中充满着十八般兵器的演绎法则和操练规则,亲朋好友称他是个“苦孩子”,他却志得意满地回忆道:没有谁的童年会比我的更充实,更刺激了。有些美国记者也颇有感触地叹道:布兰登·李的童年确实有血有肉。
在习武课上,
李国豪靠着拳脚,仗着童真,赢得一任又一任教练的赞许和称道,谁都认为他是棵“苗”,用不了多久,这颗苗会生根、发芽、开花、结果。不用对他寄望很高,他也会用很高的
武艺为自己的未来营造无可限量的希望,对此,几乎无人怀疑。有一天,母亲让他仔细看看挂在墙上的
李小龙的一帧肖像,他看着看着,禁不住泪水夺眶而出,他无法控制住自己的情感,哭着喊着,疾步跑出房间,直奔练功房,他把压抑在心头的一切悲怨和哀思全都用拳头的坚实出击和大腿的顽强腾挪发泄出来。汗水、泪水交织在一起,对父亲的爱,对父亲的忧思融汇在一起,他的拳头打得更稳,更准,更狠;他的腿踢的更刚,更猛,刚刚10岁出头的
李国豪,已身手不凡,令人刮目相看了。也许那双手太习惯握拳,那双腿太习惯踢打,坐在文化课堂上的
李国豪不知怎么的,就是没心思捧起课本,没耐性哪怕是在板凳上连续安坐20分钟,这个毛病直到上了中学还是改不掉,他在私立的
查德维克学校的一为化学教师曾说,布兰登·李其实根本不需要学校教育,他对学校的那些规章制度更是嗤之以鼻。1983年的春季,在距毕业不过几个月的当口,他因“
行为举止”不当而遭
加州的这所私立学校开除,他满不在乎,一副“此处不留爷,自有留爷处”的架势,其奈我何?后来,他在邻近的米拉来斯蒂高级中学得到了一张文凭,终于结束了高中就学生涯。他的一位密友,演员娄
菲利浦斯这样评价他:“布兰登·李,十七、八岁那阵子,浑身上下一股子蛮劲,让人觉得实在不可理喻,难以接受。” 演技人品 日臻成熟
过了弱冠之年以后的
李国豪,在
武艺日臻超凡境地的同时,生活品味,行为举止,待人接物等都开始有了十分显著的变化,从让人觉得不可接受逐渐转变为让人喜爱,从自负转为坦诚,从沉默寡言变得有说有笑,整个地,李国豪像是
变了个人,虽然时不时地仍让人觉得他依旧是过去的那个李国豪,但更多时候,更多场合,人们还是觉得李国豪正在成熟,用一句普通的中国话说,是“
长大成人”了,逐渐懂得真正生活意义的李国豪很快就成为美国各地众多
功夫片导演网罗的“名将”之一。由于他自小就操练父亲自创的功夫——
截拳道的拳艺,甚至直到死前,他仍每周三次练截拳道,因次,身材十分健壮。完美的身体造型使他轻而易举地踏入好莱钨影视圈,当然,片约最多的少不了是
功夫片,甫入影界即以武打精湛而小有名声,又加上他在高中毕业后选修过一些戏剧系的课程,因而其戏路虽不如其拳路那样章法清晰,但毕竟较之一般武功演员多一层见解。因而,拍起武打戏来相当得心应手,很快地,他又萌生了要成为像父亲那样的武打影视明星的意愿。21岁时,
李国豪曾赴香港与一家名为德宝的制片公司签约,为德宝公司拍了两部
电影,其中一部便是在港引起过不小轰动的由名导于仁泰执导的《
龙在江湖》。
在美国,早些年他更多的是参与一些
功夫片的配角角色。近几年来,由于出色的武功和不断长进的演技备受注目,他开始得到美国一些名牌电影公司的主要角色的片约。最近,他与
20世纪福克斯公司签约,开始在一系列功夫
电影中担当重要角色,未竟的《
乌鸦》一片便是他与该公司签约拍摄的3部获利丰富的影片的第2部。他的处女作是录象片《功夫———第二代》,1991年又推出了《小东京对垒》,内中他显示了十分成熟的演技和另人观止的武功技艺。最近,在全美国发行的名为《龙霸天下》的影片中,他成为第一男主角,该片由于是大公司制作,因此,他的“首席主角”地位实质上也奠定了他在好莱钨的明星地位。
打拳、拍片,两项都是累人的活。
李国豪很快觉得,踏入影视界以后,开始忙了起来,自然也
累了起来。他的计划排得满满当当的,各种片约纷至沓来——美国式
电影名人的外包装把他妆扮的得分外英俊,各种访谈和邀请把他的身价“炒”得也许无法再高。
李国豪很明白,醉心此间而不思前行将无异于“
慢性自杀”,多少好莱钨明星昙花一现的前车之鉴可供他思忖啊。他再次从他父亲那传奇般的经历中去寻求指点迷津的良方,他十分清醒地对自己作了估价,他的一位亲属和一位武打专家近日透露说,
李国豪已经意识到,也许他永远都不会成为世界级的武打高手,以10为完美的标志的话,他只不过处于7这个水平位上。因此他别无选择,只能继续努力,再努力。在一切努力都还未能产生结果之前,他决不贸然摘取任何一项桂冠。在距离结束《
乌鸦》一片8天的时候,他毫不犹豫地婉拒了要他在一部有关他父亲传奇经历的影片中担任要角的片约,那部影片定名为《龙:布鲁斯·李的故事》。无论是谁都很清楚,在美国,只要是由大公司牵头筹拍的武打片,一定都会非常叫座,更何况是以功夫巨星
李小龙的传奇故事为主的武打片,那扶摇直上的票房记录定会随着交口赞誉的暖风,把个武打伶人熏得醉眼惺忪。
李国豪看得真切,他不要“三月不知戏味”的虚无,他
铁了心,要用实力,
一步一个脚印地推销自己,因此,他把全部的心思和精力都放在了这部以荒诞风格见长的《
乌鸦》一片的制作上。

1993年4月,香港著名功夫演员
李小龙之子
李国豪在美国拍摄本片,在一场
枪战戏时
中枪死亡,终年二十八岁。导演绞尽脑汁,运用蒙太奇和CGI,把他的形象从已拍好的镜头中移接到尚未来得及拍的镜头里,使影片得以完整地公映,不知内情者根本看不出
破绽。 这部黑暗影片的制作异常精良,动作设计华美,摄影出色。尤其是
李国豪在拍片时的暴卒更增加了影片的神秘感。
幕后制作 本片根据连环画小说改编,原指望是
李小龙之子
李国豪的成名作,但他不幸丧身片场。
李国豪真正的中弹死亡镜头并没有放进片中,而是为尊重家属的感情而销毁,所剩不多的镜头靠替身及电脑完成。

相关评论 相对于好莱坞主流大制作而言,作为
哥特片的代表性作品——《
乌鸦》显得更独立、更另类、也更cult一些。这是一个有关
灵魂转世和复仇的
爱伦·坡式的
哥特故事,诡异的巫术气质贯穿全片,影片的摄影、化妆等等细节也无一不渗透出哥特的氛围,例如自始至终的阴暗场景,例如演员脸上涂抹的白色油彩……《
乌鸦》对
哥特文化淋漓尽致的诠释甚至为它赢得了“哥特教科书”的美誉,对一个死忠的哥特影迷来说,只有《乌鸦》是最哥特的,也只有《乌鸦》足够哥特。当然,《
乌鸦》的成功也使其续集的拍摄很快提上了议事日程,但它的三部续集只有1996年的《乌鸦2:天使之城》算得上是成功的,后面两部《乌鸦3: 鸦魔战士》和《乌鸦4: 邪恶祈祷》就能说是差强人意,一部不如一部了。
1996年的第二集《魔诫追缉令》(The Crow 2: City of Angels)讲八年后主角再度回来,帮助他人复仇。
2000年的第三集《鸦魔战士》(The Crow: Salvation)讲一个遭诬陷而被判死刑的人,充当
乌鸦返回阳间报仇雪恨。
