The Haunting of Alice D (2014)

His is a plot explanation spoiler review in case you haven't figured things out from the early clues, but not plot spoiler per se.A large brothel was home to Alice a rebellious prostitute and committed suicide. Four generations later the family still owns the house and a party ensues of four guys and prostitutes. One woman supplies the party with LSD, which is delivered through the whisky which has a note "see you on the other side" some buzz words for acid users, i.e. Doors "Break on Through to the Other Side." A story is then planted in everyone's mind about Alice D which sounds a lot like LSD, get it...which unfortunately they couldn't create a decent movie around the pun no better than Joan or Arcadia.The question as to how real is the ghost they briefly see or is it hallucination.On a side note about LSD: placing it in a bottle is bad business as there is no way to measure dosage which is tough enough to begin with. The second aspect is that anyone who has done LSD, knows what the onset feels like (tingling at base of skull) and also know when they are on it. You just don't suddenly start to "see things." In fact most of the time you don't see things, you just think everything is funny...especially MST 3000 designed for acid users. I hate it when people who have heard one Grateful Dead song, think they know all about acid trips.Guide: sex, brief rape, nudity.

If you think things will get better after the opening scene - they won't.The only reason I have given this one star is because some of the acting isn't bad.Every other aspect is TERRIBLE.A director who doesn't know how to direct - camera operator(s) who have no idea about lenses or the basic operation of a camera - a sound recordist/boom who has no idea of how to capture decent sound - a lighting director who has no idea of lighting. This is a mess.The colour grading is bad. The editing is bad. The story never really gets going - and goes nowhere very fast.Even if you have some spare time you would get more entertainment from watching back to back commercials for 85 minutes - I joke not!

Wasted my time and money! Why can't the makers just put a little more effort? 1) what are you trying to say? Alice revenges on those people basing on what? Even Jason had Crystal Lake? 2) What made me mad is that the makers seem to have enough budget to make a descent movie. 3) The Actors and Actresses are not too bad to start with so the problem is with the scripts. 4) Even the only good thing about the movie that is nudity is neither here or there? 5) The killings are all off screen. 6) The conversations are boring. 7) The flash back could have put all in the beginning instead of putting parts in the middle of the movie. 8)It just seems to me that the maker did not put their heart into making it. Pls try to make a watchable film next time..

There is something really annoying in this movie, beside the sheer fact that it exists. So this guy throws a wild party, but trust me when I say, this is the most boring party ever. Why? No freaking music. The sound manager botched the movie even more by amplifying the noises (kisses, walking sounds, hitting) while the dialogue is toned down. Very unprofessional. Then we come to the acting. I give it a solid F. Effects are non-existent. The guy in charge of killings is obviously very shy cuz all killings happen off-screen. Then they show you the bodies smeared with cheap ketchup. Well, I barely finished watching this movie, and already having trouble remembering much, so I'll draw the line here. If you respect and value your time, skip that floater.
