Movie 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.
Industry Reviews
"Sole learned the right lessons from Hitchcock, and the killer in a yellow slicker is a respectful nod to Nicolas Roeg's DON'T LOOK NOW..."
