    That man should be chopped into little pieces

    I liked the end of this film but of all the crap that happened, everyone should be living in a group home. That man shouldn't be living the rest of his life in prison, no, he should be chopped into little pieces & fed to stray dogs on the streets or in the prison cell!

    Terrible movie, worse acting!

    This was a horrific, true event that was completely trivialized by how poorly the story was told! Making it even worse was Andrea Roth's "accent" that came & went throughout the movie...one of the worst attempts at a British accent EVER!

    Wild story, mediocre acting

    This is a wild story, a sex cult and an a fairly well known actress wrapped up in it. However, this re-enactment could have been better acted. The message was strong though, and I appreciate the struggle it must have taken to get something like this exposed.

    Could have been better

    The acting, direction and screenplay could have been better. But it's worth watching because it's a relevant and fascinating true story. It's a good warning for anything that seems vaguely cult like whether it's an offshoot religious organisation or business improvement scheme. With the coverage about Leah Remini there are eerie similarities. Trust your instincts and be wary of fraudsters.

    The acting is uneven. Catherine Oxenberg herself looks great but the actress Andrea Roth playing her isn't very expressive and has a strange way of copying her accent that's hard to understand. The actress who plays India Oxenberg is pretty. All the blonde actresses look similar.

    There is a good story that in the news right now. Its just the execution felt stilted.

    Meh!

    This could've been a decent movie. However, why in the world wouldn't they have just cast Catherine Oxenberg? Andrea Roth is a big giant no with the worst accent ever. Very bland, disappointing and ultimately I cared nothing for the characters.

    • Trivia
      Lauren Salzman's mother Nancy is the co-founder of NXIVM alongside Keith Raniere. During her trial, she admitted to interfering with NXIVM's perceived enemies twice. She reportedly stole the email passwords of people who were thought to oppose NXIVM, and altered tapes of herself teaching courses to be used during a lawsuit against cult deprogrammer Rick Ross, who helped NXIVM members escape.
