ALICE JACOBS IS DEAD

 

Alice Jacobs is Dead
Written & Directed by Alex Horwitz
2009, USA

A scientist works at creating a cure for a devastating disease, concealing a dangerous secret along the way.

This take on the potential end of civilization focuses on the relationship between its two lead characters, with just enough of the outside world on view to effectively provide Alice Jacobs is Dead with its grim backdrop.

The performance by veteran actor Adrienne Barbeau is excellent.
