The Way Down: God, Greed, and the Cult of Gwen Shamblin (2021)
Saucer-People 5 points 2 years ago*.

Excellent documentary miniseries by Marina Zenovich on one of those strange Christian religious/cult groups, always led by a ‘charismatic’ leader that seem to be particularly prominent in America.
Despite the cautionary tales of recent history been littered with cult leaders like Jim Jones or fraudsters and predators like Jim Bakker and Jerry Swaggart who all used religion in the service of their own needs, the lessons seem seldom learned.
I have to say though, the shock ending does make you think there is a strange cosmic justice in operation.
