aka Alice Sweet Alice
After a young girl is brutally murdered during her first communion, her strange and withdrawn older sister becomes the main suspect.
Low-budget thriller comes as close to an Italian giallo as it can: excellently creepy with surreal moments and an unlikely twist.
Halliwell (no star): "Moderate low-budget thriller, mainly of interest for the brief appearances of Brooke Shields in her first film, and of Roth as a pathologist."
Maltin**: "OK murder mystery is noteworthy as Shields' feature debut..."
Michael Weldon/Psychotronic: "...this movie is excellent despite the misleading hype. It's the best-made and most unsettling psycho-shocker in ages. A violently anti-Catholic feature...The murders, although not overly gory, are hard to look at, and the audience is clearly thrown off track. You won't be sure who did it until the end, and you won't believe Mr. Alphonse!"
