Macbook got crushed

SO my macbook got run over by a car! Anyways it turns on now like normal with the boot up noise, but the screen is just completely black and really cracked.The caps and num lock buttons still light up and everything and it will play music, so im thinking the hard drive is fine. My question is do you think this can be fixed with a new screen or is it a much bigger problem? THX

I think the best thing to do is bring the computer to an Apple store or authorized repair shop and ask the folks there to check the hardware for damage and give an estimate for repair.

Without connecting it to another display, you can't say for certain if the video chipset is OK, and there's plenty of other issues that could go unnoticed until it's too late to deal with them.
