Alice in Terrorland

I went to watch this movie with my dad and my sister (we're horror movie lovers) the movie was poorly structured, production was nice but the flow of the movie was poor and boring and made no sense. The ending was absolutely terrible and it really was a waste of time and money. There were a total of maybe 2 good jump scares and the scenery was a bit thrilling but the events were boring and lead to absolutely nothing. My arab dad absolutely hated the movie and regrets the $30 he spent today. I personally don't think the movie was that horrible (i enjoyed the production and the scenery and the way it made me feel but i did not enjoy the events or the flow of the movie especially not the ending). Watch literally any other movie, don't waste your time.

This is apparently some film school dropout's final project. They TRY to be "artsy" throughout the whole thing. It starts out with three rapid fire scenes with no context. Then we are "treated" to a monochromatic kaleidoscope of fractal images with some trippy music in the background. I swear, if I'd had some LSD, I'd have at least been in the right mood.

All these dropouts seem to think that slow motion builds tension. It is an overused trope that every one of these art projects over use. I'm serious... I have seen molasses flowing up hill in January at a faster pace than this... movie. There is one scene where Alice is literally slow motion crawling across the floor for a GOOD five minutes. If they had run all of the slow motion scenes at normal speed, the movie would have been at least half an hour shorter. Not a lie.

Then, as is the case with every single modern "movie," the entire thing is filmed with two candles and a 4 watt night light bulb. I swear... what is it with this freaking trend?! You might as well make it a radio play for all you can actually see.

I'll bet you want to know about the plot, though, don't you? Yeah... you and me both. The entire thing is a really bad retelling of "Alice in Wonderland" with a twist you can see coming a mile away.

There is an adult, x-rated version of "Alice in Wonderland" - a musical at that! - from 1976 that has a better story line, better acting (and better lighting) than this trainwreck of a "movie."

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.

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.

The WORST movie i have ever seen!!

Nothing was structured, everting was poor and no sense and the flow of the scenario was soooo bad.

It's really the worst movie of 2023 !!!

Not recommend at all, nothing was good or understandable !!!!

I wish can give less than 1 star, because it's absolutely not even deserve a half star !!!!
