Tim’s Reviews > Alice Isn't Dead > Status Update

This one has a very David Lynch feel to it (arguably more so than Nightvale, as in Nightvale the unexplained weirdness is so over the top and comical, where here it is threatening and just close enough to reality to make it uncomfortable). The Thistle Officer who changes her name every conversation reminds me rather unnervingly of the "Mysterious Man" from Lost Highway. I mean that in a complimentary fashion.

This is an update to let friends know I am going to be pressing on with this one and that it is highly enjoyable. I’m stopping for a bit though as my Grandfather died the other day and some of the subject matter is hitting a little too close. I’m now going to curl up with the literary comfort food of reading a sci-fivepic and will be back to this later.
