| Plot Summary: | The movie looks at the events that led up to the infamous Wonderland Murders in Los Angeles in July, 1981, as well as the investigation. What is known for sure is that 4 people were murdered in their Wonderland Avenue apartment, apparently as retaliation for their robbery of a notorious L.A. nightclub magnate. What is not known is what part porn star John Holmes played in the murders. The police investigation relies on the testimony of two men: Holmes himself, and a biker who took part in the robbery, whose girlfriend was one of the victims. The biker says Holmes had to have taken part directly in the murders (and, in fact, his palm print was found at the crime scene). However, Holmes claims that he only set up the robbery and the hit, but wasn’t in the apartment at the time of the murders. Now the police are caught in a dilemma. But whom are they supposed to believe: a biker with a heroin habit who has a personal ax to grind against Holmes, or a porn star with a notorious cocaine habit who is also known in many circles as a pathological liar? |
