Review of Guyana: Crime of the Century (1979) by Christopher S — 25 Jun 2011
With a story as inherently sensational as Jonestown, the most shocking thing about this exploitation film treatment is how dull it is. Much of the time is spent on bland expository dialogue, though it does get better in its final moments.
Gene Barry is good, and Stuart Whitman is decent as Jim Jones, though he isn't given much to do other then glower and rant, but the rest of the cast is pretty awful. A disappointment.
