On March 31, 1993, 28 year old Brandon Lee, son of martial arts legend Bruce Lee, was fatally shot while filming The Crow in Wilmington, North Carolina. The gun was supposed to be loaded with blanks. The scene was supposed to be fiction. But something went terribly wrong.

How did a prop gun become a deadly weapon? Who was responsible for the failures that cost Brandon Lee his life? And why did rumors of a Hollywood curse begin surrounding the film?

In this episode of Hollywood Horrors, we investigate the tragic death of Brandon Lee, the shocking failures behind the fatal shooting, the decision not to pursue criminal charges, and the eerie parallels between Brandon's death and that of his legendary father.

From the final moments on the set of The Crow to the film's remarkable completion after his death, we separate Hollywood legend from documented fact.

Was The Crow truly cursed, or was the real horror something far more disturbing?
