20. The Sacrament (2013)

The Sacrament is based on the very real Jonestown Massacre of 1978, in which over 900 members of the People's Temple cult committed mass suicide at the behest of their leader, Jim Jones. This film tells the story of a group of journalists investigating a religious cult in an isolated location that uncovers its terrifying secrets. The movie, though not a direct adaptation of the Jonestown tragedy, takes great influence from the event; the cult leader is shown as manipulative and dangerous.
