The Estate
categorynarrative
year2021
Kapner's directorial debut is The Estate, a dark comedic thriller that made its North American premiere at Newport Beach Film Festival in 2020, and its streaming premiere on Hulu.
When a narcissistic son (Chris Baker), yearning for a life of luxury, and his father's erratic gold-digging wife (Eliza Coupe) decide to kill their way into their inheritance, they employ the help of an absurdly handsome, mysterious hitman (Greg Finley), initiating a psychosexual love triangle that spirals into more than anyone bargained for. Deftly balancing sharp humor and horror, THE ESTATE delivers a perfectly campy, wildly enjoyable thrill ride that Rob Rector of FILM THREAT gave "....9 stars out of 10".
