Alice in Terrorland

It was soulless garbage, and a shallow attempt to make the classic Alice in Wonderland into a horror, which other media will tell you this actually can be done well. This wasn't one of those examples.

The dialogue is awkward, and weird. The idea that Alice is being read the original, and in her fever dream is being taken to wonderland could have worked actually. But damn, girl your fever dreams are boring. Even the idea that her parents have passed and that has altered her mental state, has existed before. This just does that badly.

The costume elements are boring. The pacing is weird and doesn't work. And it has moments where it tries to be edgy but, it falls flat because it's trying too hard.

Me and my friend watched Alice in Terrorland primarily for the reason that Jon Paul Gates, who is an icon, is in it. That was our first mistake, the film is extremely dull and forgettable. With few scares and even fewer Jon Paul Gates (so sad!) What it does have going for it is its pretty good cinematography and interesting colour scheme.

The plot is confusing and unexciting, but at least they tried more than the average low budget horror flick of "this is a spooky house, here are some ghosts, be scared!" I liked the costumes in part too. But these few positives can't excuse such a dull, forgettable and lackluster film.

3/10: Such a dull film can't even justify its short run time.

I was genuinely surprised by how much I enjoyed this British horror gem. The main draws for me were the title and casting of Rula Lenska and that's all the info I went in with.

I'm kinda shocked at the amount of 1 star reviews because the film is nowhere close to 1 star material in my humble opinion. Admittedly I'm a fan of a slow burn so long as the plot/concept grabs my attention and for the most part this film had my attention. It was also beautifully shot with some impressive cinematography on display and the music also added to the film.

The weakest part of this film for me was the lead actress with her storybook accent and overall flat performance. Rula was an utter delight in every scene she was in. I could tell the actress was relishing in playing such a "character".

Overall this film was pretty good, nothing stellar don't get me wrong but I'd definitely watch it again.

Terrible, a mere waste of time and money. Wish i read the reviews before entering the theater. I was looking for a thriller/horror to enter with my wife, sadly there was no other movie and i was too lazy to read reviews before entering as there was nothing else to compare it to. 77 minutes later with nothing at all to discuss.

The acting was terrible, the effects were more like filters, the plot was too dull and finally the dialogue was full of itself for no reason.

Q: do you want to have a good time and may be some good memories about a movie?

A: see something else, literally anything other than this have a extremely significant chance in bringing you joy and delight.

"Alice in Terrorland" is another adaptation of a children's novel to the horror genre, and the result is terrible. Speaking of the art direction and cinematography, the result is pleasant, but the director's work is bad, it seems non-existent, the actors try to give good performances but the terrible script fails to favor them. The costume design is simple, the soundtrack goes completely unnoticed and the horror and suspense elements are non-existent. The film totally fails in quality, in addition to being a sleeping pill throughout its duration. "Alice in Terrorland" will be remembered, but as one of the worst horror films in history.
