The Crow (2024) - Quotes

Vincent: [''In Crow purgatory''] What is this place?

Eric: This is the place where it all ends. Where you pay for what you did to her... to all of them. Are you scared? You should be.

Vincent: [''After fighting, he was held in a puddle that was a portal to an ocean''] Oh, you stupid boy. Is this what you want?! You think she’s worth it?! All this?! Eternal hell?! For what?! For some fucking whore?! You have no idea what hell awaits you!

Eric: [''The demons start to scratch Vincent's face and pull him underwater''] Yeah, I do!

Shelly: [''Emerges from water, Eric brings her up and she gasps''] Eric. I had this terrible dream. I was falling. I thought I’d lost you.

Eric: It’s okay, baby. It’s over. It’s all over. You get to go back.

Shelly: Eric... what have you done? I can’t come with you.

Eric: What? This was the only way.

Shelly: [''She gasps from being shocked by [[w:defibrillation|defibrillation paddles] ] in real life] No. I’m going with you. This isn’t the way it was supposed to end.

Eric: [''She gasps''; ''They passionately kiss''] I would do it again. All of it. Every moment. I love you. Forever.

Vincent: You corrupt people. You can’t corrupt what’s not already there. A pearl. It’s a seed.

Eric: Hmm.

Vincent: Look at yourself. Look at what you’ve become. Those eyes. That face. Why would she want to be with you? You have no love left. Only hate. You fool. You don’t feel anything. Do you? You don’t feel any of it.

Eric: [''Vincent whisper demonic inseminating spell''] I feel it all.

Vincent: You have no love left. Only hate. She’s not what you thought she was.

Shelly: [''Flashbacks''; ''Vincent ends up becoming Crow transformed, and they fight then smashing through window into Crow purgatory''] When I’m hard to love, love me harder. Love me harder. How many people have you loved? Like seriously, seriously loved? Don’t leave me. I don’t want it to end.

Eric: [''In the Crow purgatory''] Why am I back here?!

Kronos: You couldn’t see it through.

Eric: [''walks after Kronos''] Hey! Why, why did I stop healing?!

Kronos: I said your love needed to remain pure. The enemy of love is not hate. It’s doubt.

Eric: I never doubted her!

Kronos: [''Puts hand on Eric's left shoulder''] Didn’t you? You had a chance and you wasted it. You were given the power of a god. In the end, you were just a boy. At least your soul can move on. Her soul is gone forever into the darkness. For you, eternity is easy. You just have to breathe. And let her go.

Eric: I can’t.

Kronos: [''Walks away''] I’m sorry.

Eric: [''Walks up to Kronos''] Mine for hers. My soul for hers.

Kronos: Her soul is damned. The place she’s going, you can’t imagine it.

Eric: It’s not about me.

Kronos: Even if you save her, you will never be with her again.

Eric: I know. Now let me do this.

Kronos: [''All crows start swarming circularly''; ''Cuts hand with knife and then clasps Eric's hand tightly with blood becoming black then pouring out Eric's eyes and then Kronos smears the blood over Eric's eyes and down cheeks''; ''Eric becomes revived in bathtub and then proceeds to finish all Wickham's thugs with shoutgun and bashes Wickham's head''] It’s not up to me. There is no going back from this. With this black blood, you will move between worlds, just like them. Go put the wrong things right.

Eric: [''Talking about Shelly''] I loved her, you know? I loved her like an ocean loves water.

Chance: An ocean is water.

Thug: [''Eric points gun at him through vehicle window''] I fucking killed you.

Eric: [''Shoots him''] Yeah. You did. Don’t move.

Dorm: [''Eric grabs him walking in warehouse''] Fuck. I’m just... don’t hurt me, man. Please.

Eric: Why the fuck not?

Dorm: I didn’t do anything, man.

Eric: I saw you.

Dorm: What?

Eric: In the club.

Dorm: You brought them to us.

Eric: No, no. I was just trying to get her out. I was just trying to help her get away, man.

Dorm: Get away from what? Huh? That woman who was after her, who is she?

Eric: Who, Marion? No. No. She’s just part of it. She just works for him.

Dorm: Who are you talking about? Who?

Eric: His name is Vincent Roeg, man. He used to have us over to party. I thought it was just an easy place to score. That shit got so dark. He made it so dark. He’s got this voice, man. Voice. He... burrows inside you. Finds the darkest parts of your soul and gives them a voice. And it just gets louder and louder until you do something evil. I still hear it. I never would have made that fucking video if I’d known what would have happened, man.

Eric: What video? Where is it?

Dorm: Shelly had it on her phone. Said she had it hidden. She didn’t want anyone to see it. I tried to warn her, but she wouldn’t leave without you. I knew Shelly a long time. When I saw the way she looked at you, something was different. I tried to do something right, man. I just fucked it up. I’m sorry. They won’t be far behind me. You do what we couldn’t do.

Eric: Get the fuck out.

Dorm: Thanks, man.

Eric: [''Sophia gets in limo with Eric''] I’m a friend of your daughter’s. We need to talk.

Sophia: Who was after her? Why did you come for her that day? I saw you there with the people who killed her.

Eric: What are you talking about? It was an overdose.

Sophia: How would you know?

Eric: Because I was there.

Sophia: You don’t understand who you’re dealing with.

Eric: I loved her. I need to know who these people are because I’m going to kill them. Every single one of them. And I’m gonna bring her back.

Sophia: [''Shatters pitcher on floor and collapses to floor''] She’s not coming back. My baby’s gone. She’s gone. And she’s not coming back. Please leave me. Just stop. She’s gone.

Chance: [''Opens door with chain on''; ''Opens door entirely''; ''Hugs hum''] Holy shit. Eric, what the fuck?! Where have you been? Everyone thought you was dead.

Eric: Everyone was right.

Chance: Very funny. Just come inside.

Eric: I need your help, man.

Chance: What do you need?

Eric: [''Sitting on couch''] I need a gun.

Chance: [''Sitting on chair''; ''Pours bullets into Eric's hand''] A gun. Eric, what... what are you gonna do with a... you know what, it’s not my... you’re going to need these.

Eric: She’s dead, isn’t she? We’re both dead.

Kronos: I’m afraid so.

Eric: What are you? Some kind of angel?

Kronos: [''Laughs''] Do I look like an angel?

Eric: I don’t understand. Why am I here and she isn’t?

Kronos: You’re not gonna like the answer.

Eric: Just tell me.

Kronos: She’s on her way down. To a place far worse than this.

Eric: You said I could make the wrong things right. What does that mean?

Kronos: The one who killed you is not supposed to be in your world. They made a deal with the devil to gain eternal life by sending the innocent to hell. That’s not balance. Kill them. Kill them all. And you get your lives back.

Eric: You’re saying I can get her back?

Kronos: Yeah. Kill the ones who killed you, and you will get her back.

Eric: When I was up there, I got shot.

Kronos: And it taught you something, didn’t it?

Eric: What I, um... I can heal? I can’t die?

Kronos: Your body? No. Feel pain? Yes. If your love remains pure, you cannot die.

Eric: How am I supposed to trust you?

Kronos: [''Puts arms across Eric's back''; ''Pushes Eric into puddle''] Do you have another choice? Are you ready?

Cop: [''Wandering mafia loft''] I’m here. What am I looking for exactly?

Marion: Her cell phone.

Cop: All right.

Marion: We looked, but we were interrupted.

Cop: What’s on it?

Marion: You don’t need to know. Just find it.

Cop: All right. All right. You can come out, boy.

Eric: Who are you?

Cop: I’m a cop. Here. Come on.

Eric: Okay.

Cop: It’s okay. Drop that. Drop that. Yeah.

Eric: [''Drops knife''; ''Cop shoots Eric''] Listen, I think I’m going crazy. I don’t know what’s real or not anymore. I just think something really bad has happened with my girlfriend-

Cop: [''Disgusted with self''; ''Eric gets back up''; ''They fight with Eric finishing off the cop by stabbing him''] Fuck. What the fuck?

Shelly: [''Sits on Eric in tattoo receiving chair wrapping arms around him''] My turn.

Tattoo artist: Come on, Shelly. You don’t respect my art.

Eric: [''In Crow Purgatory''] Where am I? What is this place?

Kronos: You’d think they’d come up with something better, wouldn’t you? But you know, they don’t expect us to linger. How long we stay here is entirely up to you.

Crows: [''Echoes''] ...we stay here is entirely up to you.

Eric: What the fuck is happening to me?

Kronos: [''Puts hand on Eric's left shoulder''] People once believed when someone dies, a crow carries their soul to the land of the dead. But sometimes, something so bad happens that a terrible sadness is carried with it... and the soul cannot rest.

Eric: What are you talking about?

Kronos: The crow will guide you to put the wrong things right.

Eric: [''Walks away''; ''Kronos laughs''] What do you mean? Oh, fuck this. This isn’t real. You stay the fuck away from me.

Kronos: There’s nothing there but here.

Eric: This is all just a fucking nightmare. This is just a fucking nightmare.

Kronos: [''Appears in front of him with hand on Eric's chest''; ''Pushes Eric backwards into puddle''] Then go wake up.

Eric: [''He wakes up in mafia loft''] The sadness is killing...

Eric: [''Both laugh''] Pretty good.

Shelly: What’s the first thing you liked about me when you saw me?

Eric: [''both laugh''] What’s, um... there’s like an aura about you. It feels powerful. What’s the first thing you liked about me?

Shelly: I thought that you were quite brilliantly broken.

Eric: [''Shelly chuckles''] You are. What’s the, um... what’s the worst thing you’ve ever done?

Shelly: [''Both laughs''; ''Scrapes aside cupboard and opens a wall safe taking out a box''] I once escaped rehab with a complete fucking degenerate. Probably the best thing I’ve ever done. Hmm. Wait, I just remembered something.

Eric: [''They sit on floor''] You have a secret stash here? All right.

Shelly: [''Takes out a bag of pills''] Hello. Aha.

Eric: [''Puts pill on his tongue''] Those are the ones?

Shelly: [[w:Lamb of God|Lamb of God; ''Drinking wine''; ''pokes his chest tattoo''] Hmm-hm. ]. Stop looking at me or I’ll poke your eye out.

Eric: Poke out my eye?

Shelly: Hmm-hm. You don’t need that. You’ve got me now.

Shelly: [[w:Antigua|Antigua; [w:sleep|me crash here] It’s my friend’s place. He lives in ]. Lets ] sometimes.

Eric: So, um... what now?

Shelly: You know, you don’t have to stay. Maybe it’s safer if you don’t.

Eric: I want to stay.

Shelly: Okay. Well, then, we’ll hide out here for a while.

Eric: And then what?

Shelly: We’ll hide somewhere else. Just figure it out.

Eric: Good plan.

Shelly: It is a good plan. You stink, dude.

Eric: [''Chuckles''; ''They passionately kiss''] I’m sorry. Do you mind if I use the shower?

Shelly: [''They then proceed to make love''] Not yet.

Eric: [''Riding in pick up truck after flagging it down in forest''] Who were those people?

Shelly: A former life.

Eric: Right. Got one of those.

Shelly: I bet you do.

Eric: [''Sits at table of Eric in institution mess hall''] Hi.

Shelly: They don’t like you in here, do they?

Eric: No, not really. They have a thing about men and women not sitting together.

Shelly: I know. They told me.

Eric: I like your tattoo.

Shelly: Thanks.

Eric: “Laugh now. Cry later.”

Shelly: It’s kind of how things have been playing out for me.

Eric: Well, for me, it’s more like “cry now, cry later.”

Shelly: Wanna hear a joke?

Eric: Uh, I don’t know. Is it funny?

Shelly: Not really.

Eric: Great. Go for it.

Shelly: What kind of tea is hard to drink?

Eric: I don’t know.

Shelly: Reali-ty.

Eric: [''chuckles''] Yeah. Wow. Well, that’s... that’s something.

Shelly: I’ll keep working on it.

Emergency medical technician/Kronos: [''To Shelly after revival''] Do you hear me? Yes. It’s okay. He fought hard for you.

Vincent Roeg: I heard you can grow body parts now, Eric. When I'm done, parts will have to grow back you.

Eric: Our love will live on in everything she does. Someday, I know... our souls will find each other again. Till then, I will have just the memory. That perfect sensation of loving her. And that’s enough. Almost enough.

Eric: My soul for hers!

Eric: I'm going to kill them, every last one of them.
