Wonderland
“Sex, drugs, murder. Welcome to L.A.”
Crime
On the afternoon of July 1, 1981, Los Angeles police responded to a distress call on Wonderland Avenue and discovered a grisly quadruple homicide. The police investigation that followed uncovered two versions of the events leading up to the brutal murders - both involving legendary porn actor John Holmes.
VIBE
A grimy, sun-baked descent into the LA underworld. This film feels like a fever dream of bad decisions, cheap thrills, and escalating violence, all steeped in the excess of the early '80s porn scene.
