Alice in Wonderland meets the Sci-Fi Channel

A smattering of creative ideas and concepts punctuate an otherwise clumsy storyline and confusing plot in this inversion of Lewis Carroll's childish dreamscape. The landscape of the Wonderland dimension is interesting (though perhaps a little hard to believe that our world is the derivative and Wonderland the original), and the basic plot is simple enough, but be prepared for a much more violent adventure than even "Harry Potter", that begins with children witnessing a bloody coup and the brutal beheading and murder of their own parents. This might be a good pick for older kids who love comic books.  Be aware that the graphic novel spin-off series about the Hatter delves even further into the horror-fantasy genre.
