Holy Hell (2016)
A look into the origin and evolution of a cult
1 February 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Most all of the reviews of this film emphasize that the leader of Buddhafield is an exploitative and perverse tyrant, but I think that part of the message is that he did give his followers something that many of them still feel is valuable.

The movie does a good job of showing how "things turn bad" when the leaders start to get paranoid , and the way that such leaders demand their followers isolate themselves from the world.(a common structure of cults) Seeking a Guru is a dangerous thing to do, people should be aware of elevating people to too lofty a position, even if that person has given them important things.
