Great Film overall
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Well,since i was a small boy, the jonestown tragedy has fascinated me.i read an article in readers digest,and have read heard and watched alot about this subject.,anyway,may they still rest in peace. this docu considers the female kadres of the congregation, interesting but nothing surprisingly new. there are some original audio and film clips ,but the main footage are mainly acted dramatization on low quality film.there are interwievs with family,defectors and others,but this gave no further answer or explonation to the tragedy than we now from before. to those who havent heard about the jonestown tragedy ,do watch it,for the rest its a decent reminder.
