Editorial Review:

Description:
Originally shown as a two-part TV movie, this is a gripping recreation of the horrible tragedy of the November 1978 mass suicide of 913 people at the South American religious'colony' of Jonestown. Powers Boothe's portrayal of the cult-leader Reverend Jim Jones earned him an 'Emmy' and the film traces the life of Jones from his early activist period to his rise as a modern day messiah. The climatic suicide scenes are convincingly recreated in a near-documentary style, and the whole production benefits from a huge supporting cast of excellent players. Bonus Features: Scene Selection, Trailers, Bios. Specs: DVD9; Dolby Digital; 189 minutes; Color; 1.33:1 Aspect Ratio; MPAA - NR; Year - 1980; SRP - $14.99.
