Marina Antunes [Celluloid 01.13.20] horror



I spent far more time trying to decipher the Coppola family tree to figure out how the two Coppolas that turn up in Michael Thomas Daniel's Get Gone fit into the acting/directing family, than the movie is probably deserving of but alas, that's how things go sometimes.


Horror legend Lin Shaye (Insidious, The Grudge), Weston Cage Coppola (Nicolas Cage's son), and Bailey Coppola (Cage's nephew), all star in this horror movie about a team-building retreat that goes wrong when the retreat participants have a run-in with the locals.


Shaye plays the matriarch of the family of killers while the two Coppolas play her sons.



It's not clear how exactly things go wrong though it seems that some of the retreat attendees simply make the mistake of wandering off on their own; apparently that's enough to get you killed here.


The trailer doesn't suggest Get Gone is a must-see, but I must admit the fact that it features two Coppolas, neither of whom have managed to have a breakout role yet, is somewhat intriguing. On the other hand, the fact that the most interesting thing about this movie is the fact that it features Nicolas Cage's son, isn't exactly a strong selling point.


Get Gone is opening theatrically on January 24 with a VOD release to follow on January 28.
