Bad Vegan: Would you believe it?

 


Bad Vegan is one more real crime documentary from Netflix, and I got to tell you: it gets weird.

It is a story about con artists and liars, and it is so elaborated that you almost can’t believe it’s real. So, prepare yourself for some truly bizarre things. 

Who is he?

According to Sarma’s story, she fell in love with this man who acted like he was some sort of a special, superior being. He was no human, and he had some kind of mission and, of course, special powers. And, IF she submitted to all his craziness, he would make her dog immortal! 

Yes, you read right. That man would make her dog immortal. So, the first question popping into my mind was, “How?” How was it possible for her to believe this? No one is so naive, and I refuse to believe she was that stupid.

Whatever his real name is, that man is a con artist with a gambling problem who found a silly woman. But was she? It’s hard to believe. 

While watching the show, you’ll probably say (or think) more than once, “What the…?”

Disturbing

Nonetheless, it wasn't his superior power or the dog's immortality that disturbed me. I’m aware that there are people out there so desperate to be loved, or to have their problems solved, that they would believe in anything. Well, almost… but still.

What was more disturbing in the show were the supposed phone calls he made to her. It can make you feel nervous only by listening to it. He sounds like a psychotic lunatic. He’s scary. 

She never seems scared, though. She never seems… anything. She doesn’t seem dumb enough to believe that crap; she doesn’t seem afraid enough to accept it out of fear… who the hell is she?


Is she the victim?

In the end, the question that remains is: was she really a victim? Is she a liar? Is she in denial? Does she really believe what she says? Is it really possible for someone to be brainwashed like that?

It would be interesting if we had the other version of the story: his. However, the documentary shows her point of view. Therefore, it is not impartial at all. In any case, if you want to have a slight idea about how crazy this story is, you must watch it.

Review: Billie Eilish: Unfiltered – A Shallow, Soulless Recap Pretending to Be a Documentary

  Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ (1/5) If you're expecting Billie Eilish: Unfiltered to offer an intimate look into the life, artistry, or creative process of one of Gen Z’s most influential pop icons, prepare to be disappointed.  This so-called documentary barely scratches the surface, delivering little more than a dry, lifeless rundown of Billie Eilish 's discography, awards, and chart performances. At best, it's a glorified Wikipedia entry with background music. At worst, it’s a wasted hour of potential. Unfiltered? The documentary lacks narrative depth, personal insight, or any meaningful exploration of who Billie Eilish is beyond her resume. Rather than providing behind-the-scenes footage, raw interviews, or critical commentary, Unfiltered relies on a monotonous narrator reeling off her achievements like items on a grocery list. There are occasional quotes from Billie herself, but they’re so brief and context-free they feel like filler material. For a documentary claiming to be “u...

Raising Voices - Why Alma's Mom Had the Right Reaction

  In Netflix’s Raising Voices , there's a raw, emotionally charged moment when Alma confesses to her mom that something happened the night she disappeared — she was drunk, she had sex, and something didn’t feel right. It’s the kind of moment that many parents dread. But Alma’s mom handled it in a way that deserves attention. She didn’t panic. She didn’t judge. She didn’t lose control. Instead, she met her daughter halfway, which made all the difference. What Happened in the Scene? When Alma opened up to her mom, she wasn’t just confessing — she was testing the waters for safety. Could she trust her mom with the truth? Would she still be loved after saying something shameful, scary, or confusing? Her mom’s response wasn’t perfect — but it was real. She was concerned, but didn’t explode. She asked questions. She listened. She let the moment breathe. Why That Reaction Matters Technically, what Alma described can be considered sexual assault , given her level of intoxication. Bu...
