    Instant vegan 🌱

    This film opened my eyes far too wide to ever close them again. That evening I became fully vegan and have not looked back since. THANK YOU to those involved in making this, you're the heroes we all need.

    Earthlings II

    I'm a vegan activist and I've finally seen it last night. Gotta say even I was shocked learning some of the horrifying facts presented in the movie. It takes a lot of courage to watch through the entire movie and I cannot even fathom what an amount of courage and strength was required for the filmmakers and cameramen to infiltrate the industry of horror to obtain the footage. You guys are HEROES!

    I know that a lot of vegans and vegan activists haven't seen the Earthlings and are reluctant to see Dominion, simply because they know it all and they think there is no need to scar their minds any further. But I firmly believe that watching the movie is the LEAST we could do. If it is hard for you seeing the movie, imagine how hard it is for the animals that have to live the nightmare. Use this movie to ignite the spark inside of you and join your local activist organization or start one yourself.

    Until every cage is free. Go vegan.

    Sickening

    This movie is very hard to watch for any conscious human being. For the first time in my life I wish a movie would not exist, not because it is bad but because it shows evil. Evil from humanity that tries to act with moral values but somehow accepts this.

    I can't picture myself eating animal products again after watching this. Certain pictures just wont disappear and I don't even want to talk about them.

    'Earthlings' for a new generation.

    This documentary will open your eyes to the truth about the 'food' you choose to eat. It explodes the myth of 'humane slaughter', show the reality of 'free range' and every day farm practices and animal agriculture in Australia, but common around the world, as well as some other practices that occur in other countries to bring us in the West, our 'creature comforts' like down pillows and fur coats.

    The undercover footage that was bravely obtained by activists and painstakingly put together for this film, along with the drone footage, has some of the most moving and powerful scenes portraying the suffering and horror that is the life and death of farmed animals.

    Especially if you still consume animal products, have the courage to watch this film and see if your choice to do so really stacks up as a good reason to do something that requires so much suffering, and creates so much waste, greenhouse gases and poor human health outcomes.

    The Scariest Film Ever Made...

    I've seen a lot of horrible footage like these that we can see in this documentary before, but these are beyond imagination and it's an unbelievable compilation of human immorality and cruelty towards animals, itself, nature and earth.

    It's a documentary that you can't watch easily, I almost not watched all of its scenes in detail. I just can't.

    It's a wonder how we, as human beings can do such things on a global scale.

    I always feel proud because I've decided to become a vegan years ago and now, I feel better than ever and I will not look back for even a second, but knowing that all the animals are still being exploited by human beings, is just disgusting and hard to take.

    I hope everyone would change their mind about speciesism, animal cruelty and diet.

    8.5/10.

    • Trivia
      The opening text, without voiceover, is "From beasts we scorn as soulless, in forest, field and den, the cry goes up to witness, the soullessness of men. - M. Frida Hartley". The earliest match appeared in "The Spectator" magazine of London in 1928 within the literary supplement section. M. Frida Hartley published a poem titled "Hymn of Pity for Broken Birds and Beasts" which was composed of five verses of eight lines each. The second verse contained the quoted lines. The first four lines of the said verse are "For creatures of Thy making, Old laws assigned for use, New freedom stands proclaiming, Their rights and our abuse"
