In addition to his work in television and the theater, he directed seven feature films, including Smiling Maniacs (1975) and Vatican Conspiracy (1982).

[2][3] Later during the 1960s, Aliprandi worked mainly in theater and as a member of the Compagnia dei giovani (Company of Young People), directing various plays and operas.

[6] Aliprandi received good critical reviews for La ragazza, as well as for his next two films—1974's Corruzione al palazzo di giustizia (Corruption at the Palace of Justice, released in the United States as Smiling Maniacs) and 1976's Un sussurro nel buio (A Whisper in the Dark).

His final two films were 1992's Prova di Memoria (Memory Test, released in the United States as Crimson Dawn) and 1994's Soldato Ignato (Unknown Soldier).

He added that, except for Senza buccia (Skin Deep), Aliprandi's films were "personal and technically competent" and dealt with fantasy elements in ways that were "original and idiosyncratic".
