Watch Online: Francis Ford Coppola’s First Mainstream Movie, Dementia 13 (1963)

A good find by the folks at Boing­Bo­ing: Demen­tia 13, Fran­cis Ford Cop­po­la’s slasher/thriller from 1963, can be down­loaded for free over at Archive.org. You can watch an embed­ded ver­sion above, or down­load an AVI file here. Here’s the gist of the plot: “An old Irish fam­i­ly is haunt­ed by dark secrets around the death of a lit­tle girl sev­en years ear­li­er. Two women, one mar­ried into the fam­i­ly and one soon to be, start unrav­el­ing the secrets at a price that they could­n’t have imag­ined.” Although Cop­po­la had two pri­or films under his belt,  Demen­tia 13 is con­sid­ered his first main­stream, “legit­i­mate” direc­to­r­i­al effort.
