Product Details of Alice, Sweet Alice (DVD - 1977)

Description

After 10 year-old Karen (Brooke Shields) is killed in church on the occasion of her first communion in 1960s New Jersey, Alice, her seemingly innocent 12-year-old sister, becomes the prime suspect. Matters are complicated when more of Alice's family members turn up dead along with residents of her apartment building. Is a twelve year-old girl capable of such mayhem, or is she too obvious a suspect? Shot in Paterson, New Jersey, ALICE, SWEET ALICE features a surprising amount of bloodletting along with a heavy dose of Catholic iconography mixed in with the horrific proceedings. This was the first (abeit brief) screen appearance for Shields.

One of Brooke Sheilds first films, This is definetly intriguing. The scenery gives a creepy atmosphere, The characters are well-developed, and you actually wonder who really killed Alice.

Alice, Sweet Alice (DVD - 1977)

Not sure if this would qualify as a "Slasher" film or not. I saw this a long time ago and can't remember how many characters ended up getting killed. It's an interesting little oddity of a picture with some flashes of originality. For me, the primary reason to see it was that they filmed the bulk of it in Paterson, NJ, which is the area I grew up around. Brooke Shields makes a brief appearance,...

Alice, Sweet Alice (DVD - 1977)

I truely did enjoy this very original and darkly disturbing horror film. I would catagorize this fil as more of a mystery than actual horror.

Actually, this film is pretty much refreshingly teen free! This was made back when horror and...

Alice is a twisted 12 year old violently jealous of her younger sister(Brooke Shields)in this absorbing, atmospheric slasher movie. The setting is late 50s New Jersey. The creepiness of things is captured lovingly in small details and great location photography, in an almost Coen Bros tone. and a monstrous landlord(you will never forget this character once you see him in his antique-stuffed...
