Wild Wild Country
A bit overlong (typical for Netflix), but it has that irresistible “Surely this won’t get any crazier” thing going for it. It’s also a bit unique among cult documentaries in that the cult leader (technically second in command I think, but the de facto leader for a time) is interviewed and is remarkably candid about everything.
The private life of plants, by David Attenborough. I love it because it shows plants living at our speed (timelapses) with clear explanation and interesting facts. The soundtrack is nice and weird with a lot of synths, which is different from the normal orchestral backing. Also I love David :)
Going Clear, it’s about scientology, how it started and spread, how they abuse their people, harass anyone who challenges them. It really shows the true power of money and manipulation, and also shows why freedom of religion should be restricted.
I went through an scientology phase (academic interest, not a follower) and have seen a ton of documentaries on the topic. This one is by far the best, and really just a well made documentary in general.
