Author Michael Connelly and Director Alison Ellwood have created a new four-part docuseries, “The Wonderland Massacre and the Secret History of Hollywood” (now streaming on MGM+) and it proves that truth is stranger than fiction. In the summer of 1981, five people were found beaten in an apartment in the Hollywood Hills. Four were already dead when the cops arrived, including two members of the “Wonderland Gang,” which often stole drugs from rival dealers to sell or use themselves. Alison and Michael explain what drew them to this tale of modern noir, how the crime played out and was eventually (mostly) solved, and which celebrities were swept up into its macabre and twisted orbit.
