Cassavetes? Any relation to the great actor/director?

Coppola's daughter and Cassavetes' daughter both have films coming out. Aren't there other famous directors' children making films now?

I didn't realize all 3 of Cassavetes kids were filmmakers now.

Ridley Scott's son
Lawrence Kasdan's sons

Not a bad film but I was expecting more of a surreal atmospheric Jean Rollinesque type film or an artsier ambient film like Tony Scott's The Hunger, instead I got a sibling rivalry melodrama with vampires.

2.5/5
