Trapped. Life Inside a Cult-How to Spot a Cult

Description

A band of people who share the same beliefs, no matter how outlandish those beliefs seem, is not necessarily a cult-that term is reserved for groups that control followers through manipulation, intimidation, and blind obedience to a self-appointed leader. In this program former members of the Church of Scientology, the Branch Davidians, and other abusive organizations discuss why they joined these groups, revealing disturbing information about their lives as members. The video reviews risk factors for recruitment into a cult, techniques used to recruit, and the scare tactics that prevent many from leaving the fold.
