Francis Ford Coppola’s absolutely atrocious and embarrassing Twixt, which was shot in 3-D and meant to be “edited live” by the director, is finally getting dumped in the home video crapper by 20th Century Fox on Blu-ray and DVD July 30. Yippie!

If you couldn’t tell, I hated it.

Starring Val Kilmer, Bruce Dern, Elle Fanning, David Paymer and Ben Chaplin, “A writer with a declining career arrives in a small town as part of his book tour and gets caught up in a murder mystery involving a young girl. That night in a dream, he is approached by a mysterious young ghost named V. He’s unsure of her connection to the murder in the town, but is grateful for the story being handed to him.

“Do you believe in destiny? That even the powers of time can be altered for a single purpose? That the luckiest man who walks on this earth is the one who finds… true love?” – Count Dracula (Bram Stoker’s Dracula 1992)

There was a time in horror when romance was an integral part of the story, where love and the actions that characters would take for it were what moved the plot forward. Films such as the aforementioned Bram Stoker’s Dracula spring to mind as do many of the classical Universal monster films, Cronenberg’s The Fly, Carpenter’s Big Trouble In Little China, and countless more.

With tomorrow being Valentine’s Day, I thought that I would share my thoughts on the topic of romance in horror and why it seems to have faded. READ MORE

Easily one of the worst films of the past few years was Francis Ford Coppola’s Twixt, which plays TIFF and then sort of vanished off the face of the planet. Now, Coppola is taking the vampire tale on a one city engagement where it’ll play San Francisco on Friday, August 10th in an exclusive engagement. The film will open at the Sundance Kabuki Cinemas Theater (1881 Post Street, San Francisco, CA 94115). Coppola will attend the 4:45pm and 7:15pm screenings on the 10th for a Q&A. You will want to be there because it’ll be funny.

Getting ready for the event, a new extended trailer has been shared. In the film Val Kilmer plays “A writer with a declining career arrives in a small town as part of his book tour and gets caught up in a murder mystery involving a young girl. That night in a dream, he is approached by a mysterious young ghost named V. He’s unsure of her connection to the murder in the town, but is grateful for the story being handed to him.
