I have a question about this dumb movie


I had a hard time following the plot in this movie. I recorded this on my DVR because the synopsis my DVR gave it said that a Psychic Detective tracks a murderer that likes ALice in Wonderland or something to that effect. Where was the relation to "Alice in Wonderland?" Was it just the fact that Alice was one of the girls killed and the main character was Lt Hatter and the stupid playing cards?

reply

yes

the killer is the jabberwhocky, the police capt is "Hatter" one of the victims is "Alice"

probably other references that I dint pick up on

when keifer discovers his new power he's gone down the rabbit hole? (Ok Im reaching now!)

reply

I guess nobody picked up on the Bozo Miller and Florian Zabach connexions.

"Beware of the waiting room."

Pretty close on that last one as the other psychic guy, Harvey, is supposed to be the white rabbit i.e. "Harvey" is the movie with Jimmy Stewart where he hallucinates a man-sized white rabbit named Harvey.

Also, the bar he goes to to be alone has a semi-broken neon sign which is supposed to say something like "Drink Mead Beer"(or something like that) but the only part that actually works says "Drink Me" exactly like what was written on the bottle Alice had to drink to either shrink or grow(can't remember which at the moment) in the written stories.

You will be missed Carleen(aka Cassavetes45). :(
