    A Wonderland Library & Reading List 

    A reader recommended a post that lists all of the published works for Wonderland, as far as books and articles, etc. So here we go, please add anything that I forgot in the comments section. I’m brain dead today so add away! Add movies and documentaries as well. I still think it’s funny that Eddie was the only Wonderland character to star in a Hollywood production (The Cisco Kid episode).

    Documentaries and Films

    • E True Hollywood Story. I have not seen this one in a while.
    • The full length British documentary. About 1 hour long.
    • 20 Most Horrifying Hollywood Murders. I think #1 here was Charles Manson.
    • Exhausted starring John Holmes.
    • Wadd, The Legend of John Holmes.
    • Wonderland, 2003 film.
    • Boogie Nights, 1997 film.

    Books

    • The Other Hollywood by Legs McNeil.
    • A Life Measured in Inches by Jill C. Nelson and Jennifer Sugar.
    • Long Time Money and Lots of Cocaine by Rodger Jacobs.
    • Porn King by John and Laurie Holmes.
    • Three Dog Nightmare by Chuck Negron

    Four On The Floor by Tom Lange etc has never been published.

        Nice list John! How much does Chuck Negron’s book devote to the Wonderland house/murders? Since he was frequenting there quite a bit does he divulge much about the personalities residing there. Keep up the great work mang!

          It’s discussed, but from his point of view, as a user…etc. About 10 pages.
