Alone - Hör auf deine Angst

Alex has voices in his head - since the death of his parents, the teenager has suffered from schizophrenic obsessive-compulsive neurosis and is terrified of germs and women. The therapist's friendly advice to simply invite the lady of her heart to dinner in the classic way has fatal consequences, because Alex has his very own way of asking for dinner. So most ladies end up with a piece of paper on their big toe and not with a ring on their finger...

Dimly lit, deserted corridors, a sophisticated soundtrack and disturbing, subjective camera shots from the point of view of the serial killer - the only 24-year-old English director Philip Claydon pulls out all the stops in his virtuoso finger exercise 'Alone' (2002). The unappetizing candlelight dinner à la Alex has what it takes to become a cult scene. A radical, an uncomfortable horror film.
