Guyana: Cult of the Damned

In the heart of the Guyanese jungle, a captivating priest presides over a cult, but as the group's isolation deepens, some members begin to question his true motives, ultimately rising up against his command to sacrifice themselves en masse.

The film dramatizes the tragic story of Reverend Jim Jones, a charismatic but paranoid clergyman who founded his own church in the Midwest. After becoming convinced the CIA was against him, he led his followers to Guyana to create a utopia, but his vision turned into a society of obedience, orgies, violence, and abuse.
