It's not fun to stare into the sun, but truth is a bitter pill. We may question why we need to shed light on these people and stories, but after the U.S. insurrection, I'm not sure there's enough we can do in this regard. Supreme documentary filmmaking.

It's one of the most important - and scariest - documentaries of 2020.

I feel queasy about drawing attention to people whose views deserve to be marginalized, scorned, and generally ignored. On the other hand, there's some utility in looking at these folks and knowing what toxins course through their minds.

[Filmmaker Daniel] Lombroso's easy-target subjects, gaudy as they are, make a nominally fascinating study.

One ideology's virulent demagogue is the opposite ideology's middling documentary subject.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Oct 21, 2020

Might be the scariest film you see in 2020.
