The first thing you’ll likely notice about Nightcrawler is how creepy Jake Gyllenhaal look in this film. With a title like Nightcrawler, it's easy to mistaken it for a film about the X-Men mutant with teleporting abilities. However, in director Dan Gilroy’s Nightcrawler, the film explores one man's entanglement with the underground world of Los Angeles freelance crime journalism, which comprises of videographers similar to paparazzis who stalk crime scenes instead of celebrities. Jake Gyllenhaal plays Louis Bloom as a smooth talking con artist who can sell you just about anything, or so he thinks, by using his ability to read people like an FBI profiler and his tech savvy skills to dig up information to learn about people’s weaknesses so that he can use them as leverage to get what he wants. Louis is completely devoid of empathy and integrity and he secretly hates people (although he can put on a very plausible act of convincing people otherwise).
With the new The Crow remake coming soon, we take a look back at the 30-year-old cult classic original–and where the stars are now.
