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.
