As I was looking for something to watch tonight, I noticed this movie. As soon as I started watching it, I couldn't turn it off. Every episode was filled with emotions and left me on the edge of my seat.

I think everyone should watch this movie. It makes you realize the true psychological brainwash that Jim Jones caused these innocent, freedom-loving individuals.

I highly recommend! The graphics, interviews, and videos make for a true understanding and look into the lives of the People's Temple. So, for any documentary-loving thrill-seeking watchers out there, give this movie a try!

When I found out on YouTube that that Hulu, in collaboration with National Geographic, is going to feature a new documentary I was really excited about it even if it still tells everything else we'd already knew from other documentaries.

But I was glad that this Hulu-NatGeo documentary series is more focused primarily on what happened at Jonestown in the days before and after the massacre. Shown in three half-an-hour episodes, these series highlighted not only new footages of the events but also some new key players in the events like journalists and former army witness that provided their firsthand account at Jonestown.

A look into pure evil like you've never seen it before. Between the graphic footage you see and the individual stories that are told from people who are there firsthand, it's genuinely terrifying. My heart goes out to all those who lost their lives that day... I highly recommend this. But for me it's one of those things where you only watch once.

I remember learning about Jonestown when I was younger, but to see it play out like this is unreal. Jim Jones was pure evil.

Prayers go to all of the survivors that spoke throughout this documentary. I couldn't imagine having to relive that day and all they experienced..

Cult Massacre: One Day in Jonestown delivers a chilling and unflinching account of the horrifying events surrounding the infamous Jonestown tragedy. The film pulls no punches in its portrayal of manipulation, desperation, and the devastating impact of blind devotion. The performances are hauntingly realistic, drawing you into the psychological and emotional turmoil of the characters.

The narrative is gripping, offering both historical insight and an emotional punch that's hard to shake off. It's intense and uncomfortable at times, but it never feels gratuitous. Instead, it serves as a powerful reminder of the dangers of unchecked power and groupthink. A haunting but essential watch.
