The Crow: Pestilence transplants the spirit of vengeance to the Southwest ("No Country for Old Crows?"), and introduces a whole new cast of characters as it explores grim scenes of greed and betrayal in the crime-ridden streets of Juarez, Mexico. Neo-tough guy writer Bill, who has been compared to crime novelist Jim Thompson, is sure to bring a hardboiled touch to the central theme of bloody vengeance that is at the heart of The Crow’s appeal.
