The Crow: Wicked Prayer is a 2005 American superhero film directed by Lance Mungia and inspired by Norman Partridge's novel of the same title, which in turn is based on James O'Barr's The Crow comic book series. It is a standalone sequel to The Crow: Salvation and the fourth installment in the film series. The film was filmed in the summer of 2003. It had a one-week theatrical premiere on June 3, 2005 at AMC Pacific Place Theatre in Seattle, Washington before being released to video on July 19, 2005. Like the other sequels to the cult film The Crow, it had poor critical reception.
