Oddly enough I literally just watched this movie! :D

To make a crow, you could get some wire and bend it into a basic frame with feet, then (if you can build a frame out of chicken wire, all the better) papier mache it into the shape you want, with the beak and a raised area either side for where the wings will sit. When it's dry, paint it, then carefully glue on some black feathers (either collected from nature or bought from a craft store). You could even glue on a black bead for the eye :)

If you like the crow you should watch the 1986 movie the Wraith staring Charlie Sheen. The movie was the foundation for the whole crow comics and movie. Also the movie has so many common aspects. Both movies have a guy name Skank. Just for information, remember its from 1986 alot of 80s stupid <deleted> in it, but to me an ok movie with an awesome car in it.
