The God Makers II

A documentary following the conscious evolution of electronic music culture and the spiritual movement that has awakened within.

Punk rock, B-movies, and Jehovah’s Witnesses unite in this heartfelt documentary. As members of Jehovah’s Witness start to explore culture outside of their religion, they have to wrestle with the possibility of being excommunicated from friends and family. Featuring in-depth interviews and extensive home video footage, Witness Underground tells the story of punk rocker Witnesses pushing against the highly controlling Jehovah’s Witnesses religion as they build their own community through music and art. This prolific community of Witness musicians create their own record label, Nuclear Gopher, and become early adopters of promoting their music through the internet, including what may have been the first album to ever be livestreamed. This community’s history is well documented through archival footage of their home movies and self-produced music videos, all with a very charming energy.

Roughly chronological, from 3/96 to 11/96, with a coda in spring of 1997: inside compounds of Aum Shinrikyo, a Buddhist sect led by Shoko Asahara. (Members confessed to a murderous sarin attack in the Tokyo subway in 1995.) We see what they eat, where they sleep, and how they respond to media scrutiny, on-going trials, the shrinking of their fortunes, and the criticism of society. Central focus is placed on Hiroshi Araki, a young man who finds himself elevated to chief spokesman for Aum after its leaders are arrested. Araki faces extreme hostility from the Japanese public, who find it hard to believe that most followers of the cult had no idea of the attacks and even harder to understand why these followers remain devoted to the religion, if not the violence.

Cult Explosion isn’t objective analysis—it’s sensational fearmongering that smears Christianity alongside obvious cults. This alarmist doc lumps legit Bible-based groups like Jehovah’s Witnesses and LDS with Manson Family killers and Jim Jones’ mass suicide, using the vague “considered by some” dodge to equate orthodoxy with murder. It recycles anti-Christian tropes, painting faith as mind control while ignoring cults’ defining marks: charismatic leaders demanding blind loyalty, financial exploitation, and doomsday isolation. Real Christianity has accountability, open Bibles, and voluntary fellowship—Hare Krishna dancing and Scientology audits don’t. Cherry-picks scandals to demonize belief itself, sidelining thriving Christian communities and reformed ex-members. Watch knowing it’s propaganda to distrust all religion, not discerning exposé.
