ALFRED

Cinemavixion Review

In Steven M. Smith's 2019 horror offering, 'Alfred,' audiences are plunged into the isolated world of Brendan Cobbs, a novelist desperately seeking his next big hit. Sent to a secluded English cottage, Cobbs stumbles upon a chilling muse: Alfred, a doll with the uncanny ability to animate. What begins as a potential spark for literary genius quickly devolves into a terrifying fight for survival as Alfred reveals a sinister, homicidal agenda. While the film may not have garnered widespread critical acclaim, its premise taps into primal fears of inanimate objects turning malevolent. The narrative, driven by Cobbs's desperate attempts to outwit his diminutive tormentor, offers a tense, albeit straightforward, descent into terror. Viewers seeking a creature feature with a classic horror sensibility might find 'Alfred' a compelling, if unnerving, watch.
