| Time OutGeoff AndrewAll fairly predictable stuff, but delivered without too much sensationalism, strong on showing how the apparently harmless cult insidiously undermines the man's confidence and independence. |
| Christian Science MonitorDavid SterrittThe issue is treated in surprisingly black-and-white terms, with little insight into just what happens to the bright young hero during his indoctrination. |
| User ReviewIan TA really good movie about a guy getting broken down emotionally by a religious cult and eventually becoming a member. It is a little dated, but other than that I think it was really well made. |
| User ReviewSterling Tthis is a great movie, but not very many people have seen it. it stars a young kim cattrall. |
| User ReviewAlan OMust see movie about how cults work. This was a very influential movie on me. |
| User ReviewChristian RThis movie is worth the find. Very interesting info on how people get roped into cults. |
| User ReviewJoseph AI saw this in the theaters and it freaked me out. Great storyline, great acting, interesting topic. Beautifully done! |
