10 Horror Movies Based on Real-Life Cults

Charles Manson. Jim Jones. David Koresh. Cults and their egomaniacal leaders are subjects of interest for many horror directors. One person's ability to sway hordes of followers who are hungry for acceptance is full of infinite creative potential. While some horror movies about cults rely on their own unique reimaginings of fanatics organized around a unified cause, other movies make their real-life source material obvious.
The films on this list are all inspired by real, contemporary cults and hierarchical religious or spiritual movements controlled by fiery figureheads. While some investigate what happens when people try to leave cults, others show just how far some followers will go to prove their devotion.
