hogso Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 'Penitentiary New Mexico', a BBC docu from around 2000, on the subject of the riot which took place in 1980. It's infamous for the brutality that took place there, the story is told here from both sides. Fascinating, gruesome, stuff. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you imagine what it must have been like for those inmates in the cell block, hearing the others' cells being cut open, tortured, and murdered, whilst waiting your turn. They say it took the 'execution squad' 3 hours from start to finish. 3 hours of being bated about what they were going to do you, knowing there was no way out. Nightmare inducing.

Yes very scary indeed, I watched this decades ago when first shown on the BBC and have never forgot it, there are some evil people out there pal.

Only2McInallys Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Yes saw that documentary about prison riot years ago ...unforgettable. I think they used a phrase that it “was like opening the bowels of hell” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted June 9, 2020 Moderator Share Posted June 9, 2020 Not sure how long this will be up, but it's an incredible film about a harmful chemical that is inside your body right now thanks to the people at Dupont and their requirement for profit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyh29 Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 McMillions is quite good , even if one of the FBI agents thinks he's staring in the Office , rather than a documentary .... it's about how the McDonalds Monopoly game was exploited and the FBI case around it . I read an in-depth article about these events about a year or so ago so already had some kind of idea how it all played out but it's still an interesting documentary and worth a watch 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvfcRigo82 Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 On 23/05/2020 at 15:14, sne said: There is a documentary series about The Undertaker. Not seen it but even thou I've not watched wrestling since the 80's he seem like an interesting guy from what I've read. Currently has 9.4/10 on IMDB. 3rd ep out of 5 is out tomorrow. Watched E1 last night and will watch the rest today after the Villa game. So far it looks a very interesting portrayal of the guy as you've never seen. Anyone who's followed WF in the late 80's and early 90's right through to the turn of the century it is going to be a must watch. A great insight to the rigours of what the industry does to you and what he has gave to the industry for over 30 years, Certainly backs up why he carried the tag of 'The Phenom'. Massive respect to the man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was great. Thanks for the post. Started watching this because the firm I work for has just created a product that absorbs PFOS/PFAS from water. Looks like we'll have a lot of work to do... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very very powerful stuff and incredibly sad. On 05/06/2020 at 12:28, villa4europe said: Did see kalief browder has his own dicuseries on Netflix, might give that a go over the weekend Just finished watching this and yes, very powerful and indeed very sad. Quite unbelievable that somebody could be locked up for 3 years without being convicted. It beggars belief. ''The Kalief Browder Story is a documentary series about a 16 year-old student from the Bronx who spent three years on Rikers Island without ever being convicted of a crime'' Well worth watching.
