Twixt (2011)
Let's get this out of the way first - I was shocked when I saw in the end titles that this was directed by Francis Ford Coppola. I honestly thought this was done by some young director who lacked confidence in his ideas. It could have been great but it feels that in the end, no one took it seriously (well, maybe Elle Fanning did, with all the seriousness of a 12-year-old following in her older sister's footsteps). It almost reminds me of Nobuhiko Obayashi, in good and in bad.
