6. Evil Influencer: The Jodi Hildebrandt Story
The disturbing tale of Jodi Hildebrandt and her impact on the family of YouTuber Ruby Franke has been featured in various true crime broadcasts. However, this film, running for an hour and 41 minutes, delves deeper into Hildebrandt’s history. Documentarian Skye Borgman (Abducted in Plain Sight, Unknown Number: The High School Catfish) interviews Hildebrandt’s former patients and specialists to understand how she cultivated a cult around the idea of a healthier, happier Mormon marriage.
In detailing the crimes committed by Hildebrandt and Franke, including child abuse, Evil Influencer also explores how the disgraced therapist’s own trauma related to misogynistic gender roles within the church may have contributed to her distorted sense of empowerment. However, Borgman seeks understanding without implying any justification for what occurred to the Franke children.

But there’s a catch: you can only choose once. So, when Larry Cutler (Miles Teller) passes away after decades with his beloved wife Joan (Elizabeth Olsen), he opts to linger in a purgatory resembling a train station for his wife to join him. There’s just one complication: Larry is Joan’s second husband. Her first was Luke (Callum Turner), a charming war veteran who passed away in their youth, and he is also awaiting at the not-so-heavenly gates.
