Full Plot Details

Still reeling from a rocky divorce and the recent death of her father, Clair Defina, a 33 year-old New York writer, needs a change. Her best friend, Isolda, suggests they drive up the coast of Maine to the remote northern region where Claire spent her early childhood. Clair and her father left when she was six, following the tragic death of her mother in a fire, and she hasn't returned since. Arriving in the quaint but dilapidated seaside town of Edgeport, Clair meets an eclectic group of locals, many of whom once lived on a nearby commune with her parents in the 1970s. She's surprised when they tell her she has family her father never told her about, a 90 year old great Aunt Dora living out on a farm at the edge of town with her daughter Alice. Over the next 48 hours, Clair must deal with an increasingly dangerous present while delving into the murky past. As she comes face to face with the toxic legacy that has been buried beneath the town- literally and figuratively-for decades, she also has a series of strange encounters with the enigmatic Frank Byron, Cyrus' bastard son. But in Frank, Clair ultimately finds her only ally in what will become a battle to redeem the crimes of the past and protect their future.

Movie Reviews

Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Martin TsaiDespite the film's made-for-TV aesthetic and performances, Coley has saturated its backstory with vividly drawn details that make this convoluted saga wholly believable.
The Hollywood Reporter - 5/10 by Frank ScheckDepicting the travails of an emotionally troubled Manhattan woman who returns to the remote Maine village of her childhood, Frank the Bastard doesn't reward the viewer's considerable investment of time and patience.
We Got This Covered - 4/10 by Matt DonatoDon't let its title fool you - Frank The Bastard is a dull, sluggish watch that's as exciting as visiting Maine is in real life.
Flick Filosopher - 4/10 by MaryAnn JohansonDreary New England noir soap about a woman uncovering family secrets is like a would-be supernatural thriller that forgot the magic and the chills.
Variety - 4/10 by Andrew BarkerColey’s screenplay contains a few witty references and sharp one-liners, but they often work at cross-purposes with the overall narrative drive, drawing scenes out and stretching believability needlessly.
New York Daily News - 4/10 by Katherine PushkarWhy doesn’t Wendy Vanden Heuvel do more film? As Clair’s cranky cousin Alice, she does more acting with a smirk and a turtleneck than the rest of the cast combined.
Village Voice - 3/10 by Aaron HillisOverlong and slack in suspense, the film is most noteworthy for its patchy accents and the late Ellen Albertini Dow (the "rapping granny" from The Wedding Singer).
The New York Times - 3/10 by Helen T. VerongosThe indecipherable motivations and half-baked subtexts present formidable challenges to the cast and the audience.
