The Devil Next Door

This documentary was excellent. I understand why people are angry that the map showed Poland as having death camps but I believe they did that to show us a modern perspective of where this was going on...not that Poland ran the camps or is responsible. To rate this show a 1 out of 10 is just ridiculous!

For those giving this doc a low rating based on their view that it is historically inaccurate...your review is inaccurate and you've missed the whole point. No where in this doc do they accuse the Polish of erecting and running the German built concentration camps on Polish soil. Further, that is not what this is about is it? It's about bringing an accused mass murderer to justice. I for one am perplexed by all the negativity.

John Demjanjuk, a Ukrainian born, nationalised American is sent to Israel, facing charges of being Ivan The Terrible.

It's a fascinating series, it is very thought provoking, it's harrowing throughout, you will see some heart breaking scenes, and here some devastating accounts.

You may have to interpret some of the events yourself, and draw your own conclusions, nothing is really proven. The real issue is that the trial comes over forty years free the crimes, so there was always a degree of uncertainty as to Demjanjuk's real identity.

Demjanjuk's flippant attitude in court, really did get to me, he'd have been aware of the situation, the sensitivity, he behaved appallingly.

Once again, we see how damaging false evidence, and how attempts to pervert natural justice can damage a case irreparably.

Very interesting, I know how I felt about him. 8/10.

What are people getting all crazy about ? It was a good documentary, very interesting.

Riveting documentary, but I expected a bit more honesty than I got.

The story opens...and concludes with scenes from the Ford Motor Company plant, with workers expressing surprise that an ex-Nazi could actually have been working there...GASP!

Would have been enlightening to the viewer to explain why ex-Nazis would be most inclined to take up employment at Ford...given that the founder of the Ford Motor Company was himself an avid supporter of Adolph Hitler, was a self-admitted anti-Semite whose full length portrait hung in the Chancellor's office in Berlin and indeed, was granted Germany's highest honors by the furor himself.

That the writer/directors of this excellent documentary would dance right over these very important facts demeans their work. One wonders if they had wanted to include these cogent facts but decided against including them due to pressure from the community.

Until the full truth about the Holocaust is revealed, humanity will be at risk of a repeat.
