'Alice,Sweet Alice' aka 'Holy Terror' (1976) - Alfred Sole.
In this all-too rarefied case, this is no mere movie huckster hyperbole, since stone-cold, creepy slasher classic, 'Alice,Sweet Alice' is indubitably the indomitable slasher supreme! The quintessential queen of mean, the unholy trinity of ferocious Fratricide, maniacal mayhem most malefic and sweetly satanic savagery unleashed most bloodily across the silver scream! A far from laconic,demonic-iconic 70s fright-flick that goes straight for the unguarded throat like a feral Lucio Fulci attack zombie! 'Gaaaaahhhhhhhh!'
Accept no soft-bellied, saccharine substitutes, dismiss the dismal retrograde retreads, as justifiably acclaimed horror maestro, Alfred Sole's original sin is in it for the wicked win! For me, and many other sin-seeking horror fans, 'Alice, Sweet Alice' remains far more malevolent and distressing a prospect than the fitfully amusing, corny-carnie, pop corn murder porn of Myers/Voorhees Et al., as with terrible Alice and her holy terror tactics, the terminal threat is uncomfortably real!
'If you survive this night...nothing will scare you again!'
