Murder Among the Mormons

This was incredibly well done and on point. Please do the Lafferty Brothers next. Like legit. Has to happen. Keep exposing this kind of information.

When it comes to religion, all rational and critical thinking must be abandoned. They wanted to believe so much, they never truly questioned the miraculousness of how 1 person could be in a position of a Genie bottle to make your wish come true.

What else has been forged into our history and how has that shaped our way of thinking?

Seeing the clip of the Pastor on TV confirming the history of Mormanism via a forged document was priceless.

Nevertheless, Hoffman was a brilliant mind and a savage.

I will call this a big overview of a very dark and horrific act that I had either not known of or remembered. It is a big event as the intersection of terrorism and The Mormon Church. I learned a good bit and I always kept feeling something, perhaps important, regarding the story was missing. I kept coming back to feeling I was trying to "over-think" this thing. This was a simple case of greed and narcisicm gone to a unthinkable level. I think the doc could have been more revealing and more in-depth since it was three installments. Still I was interested. BTW Mark Hoffman's voice is not right...something is way off when you process his voice. He is a total psychopath filled with something quite dark and he got by cloaking it for way too long.

A short three piece documentary that was actually pretty wild. The documentary style had a great flow and use of archival footage. Pairing current and old interviews with the same subjects was interesting. The doc gave just enough background on Mormon history and documents to get you up to speed but not overwhelm. An unexpected conclusion.

I didn't remember this incident until I started watching it, then it clicked; something about a Mormon civil war (which would probably be a pretty cool thing to watch). I thought it was a pretty good doc. Being only 3 episodes long I found it to be just about right and not slow or boring at all. If it was any longer it probably would have been, but I didn't find that the case at all. It was thorough and everyone who could be interviewed was included except for the diabolical genius perpetrator. There is definitely something seriously wrong with that knucklehead. All in all It was pretty good and quite short but informative, which is a rarity for Netflix.
