The last time Francis Ford Coppola delved into horror it was with “Bram Stoker’s Dracula,” a lush and visually ambitious take on the legend. That was over twenty years ago but the filmmaker has recently returned to the genre with “Twixt” and we’d bet that, given it’s very limited theatrical showings, you haven’t seen it yet. Well, we’ve got a few copies of the movie on Blu-ray to help you fill that cinematic gap.
To recap, the picture was inspired by a dream Coppola had and shot literally in his own backyard on a small budget, with Elle Fanning, Val Kilmer and Alden Ehrenreich starring in the story of Hall Baltimore (Kilmer), a writer on a book tour who uncovers a disturbing murder that could be source material for his next novel. But his investigation leads to nightmares which include the ghost of a young girl (Fanning), and what it all means to him turns out be more surprising than expected.
