All I know of Lizzie Borden is that she was axe killer who, as you say, killed her mother and stepfather. I probably only know that much because there is a rhyme, possibly mentioned in a film with people skipping, and because it is an American story which is famous in the US.
"Lizzie Borden took an axe.
She gave her mother 40 whacks.
When she saw what she had done
She gave her father 41"
The film sounds interesting – if it is cheap, I'll think about a blind buy.
