Nuke is right on target.
I had a guy ask me if I was trying to be Harley Quinn (he's 27) when in fact, the look is indeed 100% inspired by Brandon Lee's The Crow.
When I was around 23, I had dressed up as The Crow one year and, while talking to a friend this past Halloween, wanted to see if I could still somewhat pull it off. My avatar is what happened after about 10 minutes of experimenting with a black eyeliner pencil.
Part of the fun of doing so is seeing who people think I'm imitating--if they say The Crow, I know they're part of "my" peeps from "back in the day".
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the oldies.

No biggie, The Crow came out in 1994, giving my classmates plenty of time to graduate, get married, and have kids in time for them to end up in my current classes whining about how hard it is to get up at 9:45AM to make it on time to a 10AM class... I just smile and nod, knowing that in the future when they have to get up at 4AM to get to their job at 6AM, then they'll look back on today and realize how stupid they sounded.

The Crow was a 1994 movie based on a graphic novel. The hero, Eric Draven, and his fiancee are viciously murdered, and the story follows a legend that sometimes a crow can bring a wronged soul back in order to set things right.

Unfortunately, you can't see the makeup very well in this clip, but I picked it because I thought it was a better representation of the movie as a whole than the others trailers I glanced through.
It became a bit infamous because it starred Brandon Lee in his breakout role (he was the son of martial arts legend Bruce Lee), but was tragically shot and killed in an accident on the set.
The movie also had a haunting, but beautiful score (as somewhat demonstrated by this clip--the other trailers were set to the soundtrack and not the score) that I used to love and played for hours.
They've talked about remaking this film for years, but so far it hasn't happened.
(For some reason, I haven't been able to post YouTube clips correctly... Hope you can catch a glimpse of it.)
