Spawn

“Born in darkness. Sworn to justice.”

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.

Why it’s crap
A murdered operative returns from Hell and gets saddled with a demonic clown as his worst possible guide. John Leguizamo's grotesque mugging and the digital underworld compete for attention, while the hero tries to keep a revenge story afloat beneath the mythology.
