Answer 4

Jesus Camp is the scariest movie I've ever seen.

There are children--less than ten years old, saying that they would kill themselves for God, and the leader of this camp, Becky Fischer, actually says she wants children to lay down their lives for the Gospel, as "those young people are ready to kill themselves for the cause of Islam".

I realize that indoctrination occurs every single day all over the world, but to witness these brainwashed children--America's next generation--voicing the thoughts that others have shoved at them since they were born, vehemently condemning things as harmless and insignificant as Harry Potter...

Answer 5

I like documentaries that let viewers make up their own minds rather than telling them what to think:

- The War Tapes

- Iraq in Fragments

- Capturing the Friedmans

- Taxi to the Dark Side

Also, Man on Wire is a fantastic film that's just starting to play across the U.S.

Answer 6

Bowling for Columbine

Who Killed the Electric Car

American Drug War

Cocaine Cowboys

Edit: I totally agree with ThatShakespeherianrag.

Jesus Camp is frightening when you take into account that it parallels almost exactly how n**i Germany indoctrinated the Hitler Youth Groups.

The amount of damage these parents and so-called teachers are doing to those kids will take years to undo.

Friends of God is another really frightening one. Yikes!

Just watch the part where they discuss how evolution is completely false and how the Biblical myth story is totally true.

You can almost feel your I.Q. dropping sharply during the speech.

What's next? No, the Earth isn't round, it's still flat. The Sun and all the planets revolve around the Earth. No, It didn't take millions of years for the world to be the way it is. It took only six days.

They pretty much ignore thousands of years of accumulated scientific facts, knowledge and wisdom in favor of silly superstition.

Answer 7

Love me, love my doll.  From BBC America.

It's rather chilling.  Especially the line where the guy talks about "organic women."  Makes me feel like we'll be replaced someday.
