The Sons of Sam (Netflix) shows people that there's a difference between religious freedom, and cult behavior influenced by manipulating religion, and how the latter causes a chaotic misunderstanding that influences others, while stigmatizing the former.#TheSonsOfSam #Netflix

Totally mind blowing that the NYPD completed dismissed some very reasonable theory's about #TheSonsOfSam case! There's clearly more than David Berkowitz behind this. The eye witness sketches alone should be enough proof of that pic.twitter.com/3VVwWJORfw

They did a great job with this documentary. I wasn’t expecting this at all. ‘The Ultimate Evil’ is deep. Read it.#TheSonsOfSam

The Sons of Sam: A Descent Into Darkness is directed by Joshua Zeman. The Netflix documentary series is based on The Ultimate Evil book by Maury Terry. It shows the chilling events from the past and tries to prove that David Berkowitz was an affiliate of a Satanic Cult called the Process Church of the Final Judgment.
