It’s so crazy watching your reactions. I grew up in that neighbourhood and I know a lot of the families involved, on either end, I live about 3 houses down from where he was shot
I know it's a year after you posted this & I've loved watching it. I live about 2 blocks away from where this happened so I'll do a drive by of the house & show you where it happened. Also his son Thomas ended up committing suicide in Prison & his daughter still lives & has been happily married in New Plymouth. Beautiful family that came from a man that had more balls than all of us combined. The BP chapter collapsed after they allowed video testimony
went to school with brownie he had a hard up bringing he has left the gang and has turned his life around he tries to help young men from going down the same path he took and stop them from making the wrong decisions like he did. this is a heartbreaking story Aroha mai to the whanau
This movie was a bit fragile between Chris family and his wife, his wife wanted to show how fucking brave he was and how the system killed him. The gangs back then were brutal, a Nark back then was a dead one. I appreciate him and his wife for their bravery and if anyone thinks otherwise? 🖕🖕 to you. Rest in peace Chris 💝
Rest in Peace Chris Crene - Although theyre just actors, its true life of what we went through and still go thru today, however its all about family today.

The mobsters who was killed was one of my childhood friends who turned to gang Life Robert Gillings causes thats all there was pretty much in our home town of Hastings. His mum wasnt a good example as there was always a house full of gang members in there house.But he was a good friend my parents were church people but i almost went down the same road as him.but my parents moved to Australia then my little brother got run over crossing the road there and died.So i moved there after afew years that .Only found out about Roberts death becauses of this movie.
i lived with the son of chris crean the youngest one who wasnt born at the time but the other son daniel he has now pass on and so has the other daughter jo ..you can check his sons music out on youtube his a good artis give him support and bless gim Ezy lyric is is name ( Ezy lyric )
BRO can you please react to the film THE DEAD LANDS. You have reacted to many videos on NZ gangs. However, you would understand the Maori culture a lot more if you looked at their history of being WARRIORS. And The Dead Lands is a great movie regarding that.
I've been researching mongrel mob and black power.. I know numerous people from numerous different sets where I'm from but they have a different type of vibe
We're such a small country in comparison to the US, and more often or not the members (patched or associated) are linked to each other in some way, which also includes being family members. Sadly it is for some normalized, doesn't always have to be a bad thing because not all members are out there portraying violence, abuse or drug use!
and which is absolutely true, No question.... . but, what about the ones who are family and also who do the dirty deeds then what? or is that the crux of the issue🤔 they say your brother is your brother no matter what... but doesn't a brother also teach another brother the facts of primal right and wrong and the outcomes that could be? ( Quote from the Movie ' The Last Dragon: ' a Righteous Path is not always the Easiest) 🤔

13:10 when he says a half and half hes not meaning anything about gangs he means since the mother is white and the dad is maori that means half and half
I live in taranaki NZ and yes I have seen 2 gang fights , both time mongrel mob tried to stop in black power hood , baseball bats ,golf club and machetes used in the fights , was so crazy and I'm not gonna lie I was skuuured 😂 I'm a female not much I can do but get out the way
46:00 he’s right saying we hide we lose,kids should be able to play in freedom without fear ,those bullies just terrorising the neighbourhood , good on him for standing up to them society in general needs more people like him
I’m just more confused cause you legit didn’t read any of the captions at the start or end of the movie where they explained what happened to everyone and the law changes, you kept looking at your chat asking the questions that were getting answered on the screen lol other then that good reaction I just think you need to pay more attention to the details so your not missing the whole story
Rest in peace Chris Crean. Adventually Brownie had apologized to the daughter of Chris his baby he held moments before his death . She was a young lady by the time Brownie apologized to her, Chris creans Daughter forgave him. She forgave Brownie
I was in jail with brownie when i was younger but hes a changed man now hes be out for a couple years he got 17 years without the chance of parole and ended up doing 20 years or somewhere close to that
Dats my home Taranaki were this happened is in New Plymouth only 30 mins away I’m bout to head there soon to in the hood the house Where that guy died is around the corner from my bros house we really out here yo TARANAKI HARDCORE🌏🚾💙
These are my bros. This movie is about 30% on point and the rest they've kinda filled in. The brothers ain't as gutter and evil as depicted in this. Keep up the dope vids homie
i was in prison with the president of the black power taranaki ... in new plymouth prison .. he was doing 10yrs for this if i remember ... was in mid 90s .. he was near hslfway or nearing end of lag .. we in medium security ... i was finishing a few yrs .. and yes that is how they dress . even me at 60 now ,ex bike club .. still wear jeans and black tops jackets , etc .. black tinted out lexus ... black bike ... these 2 gangs ..

Brownie is now reformed he know helps the young youth helping them stair to living straight normal lives live a straight path and also helps them to stair away from joining gang life
Life is definitely a design of path's not necessarily chosen but through circumstances unknown/unseen one made choice whether given or made there lie consequences most given not really consent...one love all!!!..
Bro you need to review the NZ music, very laid back vibes and cruisey. Band like House of Shem, song is Anything you ask for, And Katchafire 100 ! Like to get your thoughts Bruh !
Chris was a man of faith. People of faith know too not be afraid of evil. Throughout history people of faith have stood up for their beliefs against evil acts of people who choose to do this or are brainwashed into doing it. Evil acts come back to haunt you. People do not get away with the nasty, evil acts that they commit.
Chris Crene was never in a gang just a regular guy this is set in late 90s we get life sentences(average 17 to 20yrs)yet get parole after certain time although on lifetime parole and can be recalled anytime for anything the we have perventive detention where you die inside this case changed bail and testifying laws in New Zealand,the president went to Australia in witness protection
I still live here across the road on resolution place I seen it all unfold jus another day it still happens around here most of the blackpower members here are all new and did not live here back then so they don't know what's up but I seen it all beatings stabbings murders this was the wild wild west back in the day u was the law the law was actually scared of the people that roamed these streets back then like straight up hahah but hey its not that bad today only if u knew what happened here then I guess u will understand but alguds it's paradise for me ain't no place ill rather be
I was living in new plymouth when chris crene got shot. The president of the black power in the movie is a guy by the name of Auther Garlic. He is in witness protection. There is a major interview with him years later on utube. A good watch after the movie
Also his kids must have been traumatised because his son took his own life and his daughter was in a mental facility for awhile. Not sure what happened to her after that...
It’s so crazy watching your reactions. I grew up in that neighbourhood and I know a lot of the families involved, on either end, I live about 3 houses down from where he was shot

Yup, brownie did say the movie was mostly allshet.
Chris Crean was 27 when he died...the guys involved in his murder got out 2015, 2016 and 2018
yep u can see everything
the reason why he didn't move when he was getting attack was if he lost he would losehis spot in the gang
I’m not proud of this from back then but you know brownie mane the one with the axe at the start, yeah he’s my uncle according to my mum
most people when they drop something on their feet they get angry
we really only have cameras at schools and shops and the city's not in the area where people live
They deliberately look dirty, it's part of the scare factor.
