If you loved Ghost Story, try Next of Kin

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by John Irvin, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Ghost Story, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Next of Kin is

Chicago winter, neon on wet pavement. A brother’s name scrawled on a morgue tag. A badge pressed to a stranger’s chest. Brothers split by city and holler, one in uniform, one with a rifle and a grudge. Irvin’s moral brawl moves like a backroad chase scene.
