Written and directed by Jonathan Cuartas, the festival horror-drama My Heart Can’t Beat Unless You Tell It To (read Meagan’s review) is on the way later this week from Dark Sky Films, releasing in limited theaters and on VOD/Digital on June 25.
Meagan wrote in her Tribeca review, “Through bursts of visceral violence and bloodletting, Cuartas uses horror to bolster the drama. It’s an entire meditative, brooding feature that centers on the question of how far you would go in the name of family.”
In the film…
“Dwight (Patrick Fugit) prowls the streets after dark. He searches each night for the lonely and forlorn, looking for people who won’t be missed. Dwight takes no joy in this, but he needs their blood. Without fresh human blood, his fragile young brother Thomas cannot survive. Each death takes a larger toll, the burden of his crimes weighing heavier each time, threatening to crack his spirit. But Thomas (Owen Campbell) and his sister Jessie (Ingrid Sophie Schram) are all the family Dwight has left, and as a fiercely private and close-knit family unit, they depend on him and the rituals they’ve learned in order to keep their secret. But while Dwight yearns for another life, Jessie needs them to stay together. And always the boy must feed.”
