This is a companion list to Down the Rabbit Hole: A Ranking of Films (Under)Grounded in Lewis Carroll's Alice Books, a ranking of films that are, more or less, straightforward adaptations, paratextual reworkings, parodies and sequels based in the text of Lewis Carroll's two Alice books, "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and "Through the Looking-Glass."

(My average rating of ranked films: 3.1 stars)
