Seduced is ultimately better at illuminating the reasons that led women to NXIVM in the first place, along with the strange gendered dynamics of the group.

Ultimately Seduced helped me better see NXIVM for what it was: the perfect coalescence of misogyny, patriarchy, biological determinism, and late-stage capitalism, cloaked in the language of self-help and feminism.

Forewarned is forearmed, and on that score Seduced should be compulsory viewing for everyone so they can see the warning signs.

No other docuseries truly listens to the survivors of this horrific sex trafficking ring.

India makes a compelling witness to the horrors of NXIVM, and her personal story gives Seduced a sturdy narrative arc.

Really great look at the NXIVM cult. I learned so much. Definitely right up there with Going Clear and Heavensgate:The Cult of Cults for bringing you into the mindset of the true believers.

Much better and more honest portrayal of NXIVM and Raniere than what's offered in The Vow.

Worth a watch. India's presentation of her story seems *very* rehearsed.

Very well done documentary by Cecilia Peck. India, Debora, Naomi, Ashley, Tabby, Ana and all the other Jane Doe's who appear in the series are very brave for speaking out. The series is a great companion to "The Vow", Cecilia and Inbal (editor, producer) have even said they don't want to compete. The Vow's second season will include the more awful details shown in this. I enjoyed every episode of this and couldn't wait for the next week.

This seems a lot more honest than the Netflix version. The men in the Belgic version even though they left make themselves seem innocent. They are not. They tortured women for decades and then left because they were afraid they would go down with Reiner. I would watch this version. Much more honest
