Carla Hay Culture Mix Apr 30
The Cult of NatureBoy is a sloppily edited, inadequately researched docuseries that drags with repetition and still leaves out too much information in telling the story of the Carbon Nation cult, led by convicted criminal Eligio Bishop, aka NatureBoy. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Scott M. @Skeeeeezo 6d An exploiter goes as far as the naive will allow, in this overly stretched and somewhat incomplete telling of The Nature Boys rise to power. See more Aye E @RT43717499 May 2 This has a lot of potential, with multiple former members being interviewed, a plethora of social media video footage, and well done cinematography. But it was so repetitive it started to make me feel I was being brainwashed. They mostly had the interviewees saying the same things over and over and over, with no narrative progression and little insight to their deeper thoughts and feelings for the most part. The timeline is very sloppy, it was unclear when significant incidents happened in the timeline. And I lost track of who was being interviewed as their appearance changed throughout the interviews. The substance of the material could've been covered in only two episodes. See more Read all reviews
