Synopsis
"Malice in Wonderland" (2010) is a British fantasy directed by Simon Fellows, available to watch online on iFILM. An American law student in London steps in front of a black cab, wakes with total amnesia, and gets pulled through the criminal underworld of South East England by her enigmatic driver, Whitey.
Danny Dyer plays Whitey with enough coiled tension to hold the film together, while Maggie Grace keeps her Alice in genuine bewilderment rather than generic movie-heroine mode. Every character she meets is a cracked-mirror version of a Carroll figure — the Queen as a brothel madam, the Cat as a paranoid dealer, and so on down the line.
Rougher and cheaper than the studio takes on Wonderland, but that grunginess fits the material well. Stream "Malice in Wonderland" online on iFILM.
