The Death of Alice Blue is a self-aware Canadian horror-comedy that packs in a retro style with goth visuals set in a crushing work environment. Set in an advertising agency, the film follows Alice (Alex Appel, shown here eating), the demure title character attempting to build a career amongst petty co-workers and sinister corporate masters (and monsters) while she also deals with a half-mad mum and a conspiracy theory.
The film is delightfully bizarre and could exist in the same universe that houses Terry Gilliam's Brazil
It's not playing in the States just now, but is rolling in Toronto (greedy Canadians!) until Aug. 19 at the AMC Yonge & Dundas 24. It does make the rounds at film festivals, but until it's in a neighborhood near you, check out the trailer below.
