Drama Editorial Review
Guyana Tragedy: The Story of Jim Jones is a made for TV movie that tells the factual account of how Jim Jones took advantage of a group of people and led them down a tragic path. The movie is a reminder of how different people interpret religion and can be manipulated by charismatic leaders. Unfortunately, the DVD releases of this movie were of poor quality, with some being unofficial copies that were blurry, unwatchable, and had watermarks on the screen. In some cases, the movie skipped around too much, making it confusing to follow.
