Alice, Sweet Alice (1976)


Alice sweet Alice is a movie with a very eerie feel to it, which in part is due from the atmosphere and the low-budget. Though Brooke Shields gets top billing she’s not in the film too long plus she’s pre puberty so don’t expect to see her prancing around like in ‘Blue Lagoon’. This is a slasher flick with a little twist and a very strong catholic slant to it. The story is told pretty well and the main character(Alice) does a great job,looking up her bio it seems she didn’t stick with acting. The landlord in the movie was one of the most disgusting, strange people i’ve seen on film. The killer’s mask and raincoat was pretty scary and the film was effective in setting up a few suspenseful scenes. I would of graded this movie higher, but the dad and the cops annoyed me and there was a little overacting buy the mom and aunt. Good not great.
