We had the opportunity to talk with horror icon Lisa Wilcox, known for her role as Alice in both A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master and A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child. We discuss her experiences in the famed horror franchise as well as her career in both TV and film.
Horror Geek Life: Starting with A Nightmare on Elm Street 4 and 5, we know you’ve always been a huge fan of horror and science fiction films. Were there any particular characters from those genres that you used as inspiration when preparing for your role as Alice? Lisa Wilcox: No, Alice was really just me. She was me as a child growing up. I was always a daydreamer, secluded to my room and reading books. We moved a lot so making friends was hard, though Alice did have some really good friends. When I had the opportunity to audition, it was like, “Wow! This is just me in fourth or fifth grade.”
A film called High Tide. Again, there are a lot of films I can’t really talk about yet. I do have films, and they do have titles, haha. But nowadays, with the NDAs, you can’t say anything. I also have Barbee Rehab coming out with Tom Sizemore and Bai Ling, and I play a very wildcard kind of character. That is a raunchy adult comedy, and it comes out on Tubi on May 23th, 2022.
