Syfy's Alice

 People that know me will know that I am a massive Alice in wonderland fan so when I heard about the Syfy adaptation last year I knew I'd have to give it a watch. I cannot describe in words how truly impressed I was with such an original adaptation.  The styling is fantastic with most of the costumes made by Angus Strathie (who also made the costumes for Moulin Rouge!) The imagery is just amazing. 'Wonderland' is such a surreal place with a multitude of eccentric characters. Here is the low-down:

For this re-imagined adaptation, writer/director Nick Willing mines the bizarre ingenuity and twisted logic of Carroll's work to create a daringly different, boldly colorful and delightfully skewed dreamscape of his own. 

Using the classic Lewis Carroll books Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass as a jumping off point, writer/director Nick Willing has created the modern-day story of Alice Hamilton (Caterina Scorsone), a fiercely independent twenty-something who suddenly finds herself on the other side of a looking glass. She is a stranger in an outlandish city of twisted towers and casinos built out of playing cards, all under the rule of the deliciously devilish Queen of Hearts (Oscar winner Kathy Bates) who's not very happy about Alice's arrival. 

In the course of her adventure, Alice enlists the help of an array of characters including the resistance fighter Hatter (Andrew-Lee Potts), resistance leader Dodo (Tim Curry) and the White Knight (Matt Frewer). 

Here is a trailer, I know it is a fanmade one but the original one made it seem really boring!

Here is a link to a 'behind-the-scenes' video explaining in more detail the concepts behind the film.
