John Holmes was a legend of the porn industry and revered in circles as a stud. But in 1981, years after his successful career and star fading, Holmes was a desperate man with his own internal demons to live up to. He's estranged from his wife, holding onto a relationship with his teenage mistress, and living as a junkie in search of his next fix. But one fateful night left four people dead and John as a key suspect in one of the most grisly murders in Los Angeles. Was he partly responsible for what happened at Wonderland Avenue?

Trivia:
This film is based on the real-life Wonderland Murders that occurred in Los Angeles in 1981.
The chain worn by Val Kilmer (as John Holmes) in the film holds a ring which was the actual wedding band that the real John Holmes gave his wife, Sharon, when they got married in 1965. Sharon loaned it to Val to give him good luck on the movie. When the movie was over, Sharon then gave the ring to Dawn Schiller.
Christina Applegate grew up near the site of the Wonderland murders and remembers seeing the bloody mattresses on the street, because of which she agreed to take a relatively small role in the film.
