Guyana Tragedy: The Story of Jim Jones, also called The Mad Messiah,[1] is a 1980 television miniseries about the Peoples Temple led by Jim Jones, and their 1978 mass suicide at Jonestown. Based on the book by Charles A. Krause, entitled Guyana Massacre: The Eyewitness Account, the film was originally shown on television on April 15, 1980.
This dramatic feature traces the story of Jim Jones and the People's Temple from its roots in Indianapolis in 1953 to the November 16, 1978 tragic mass suicide of more than 900 people in Jonestown, Guyana.
Sparked by rumors from renegade members, Congressman Leo Ryan goes to Jonestown to investigate reports of bad conditions and members being held against their will. With him are members of the press and a few relatives of Jonestown residents. Ryan's visit only increases Jones' paranoia, and only one of his blindly devoted followers ambushes Ryan's party at the airstrip as they are preparing lo leave.
Jones, who knows his movement has reached the end, congregates his people (many of them unwilling) for mass suicide.

That whole sequence was based almost moment for moment from the audiocassette recovered from the People's Temple compound. The batteries on the recorder were low so the tape ran slower than normal and captured the entire 40 minute massacre/mass suicide.

I was 11 during Jim Jones, so I don't remember it, but I lived in Dallas when David Koresh killed 76 people on April 19, 1993. In Matthew 24 when The 12 Apostle ask Jesus about the Signs of the Last Days before His return, the very first thing Jesus said was: Do Not be Deceived. Now in 2023 The Evil World powers have an even more Demonic plan to kill every single person on the planet. The Book of Revelation is unfolding right before our eyes, and yet people don't even see it!! So people will be willingly take The Mark of The Beast in their right hand or their forehead simply so that they can buy & sell to live; not knowing that they are condemning their soul to Hell forever. Since 2015 to now, 1,000s of Biblical prophecies have been happening faster and faster every day like birth pangs in a pregnant women. John 14:6 Jesus is The Way, The Truth, The Life and nobody comes to the Father except through Him. ~My story: 2 of my sisters were murdered and then 3 of my siblings committed suicide. So after I had been in Church for over 50 years, I almost committed suicide just 6 years ago (this week exactly) in the summer of 2017. I found out that it Only takes 1 Day to Listen to the New Testament Bible. The Truth completely healed My Mind, Body, Soul and Spirit on August 10, 2017. For the last 6 years now I have Never struggled with: Anger, Alcohol, Bag language, Bitterness, Codependency, Complaining, Depression, Doubts, Dressing Sensually, Drugs, Fear, Greed, Guilt, Insecurities, Jealousy, Loneliness, Masturbation/Pornography, Rejection, Self-harm, Sexual Thoughts, Shame, Suicidal Thoughts/Attempts, Stress, Temptations, Unforgiveness, Worry, Etc... I've been strongly encouraging people to Simply "Push Play" and let The ONLY Truth set them free too, but so far Not even 1 person has made time to Listen to The Bible. ~ Matt - John = 10 Hours ~ Acts - Gal = 6 Hours ~ Eph - Rev = 5 Hours ~As a teenager I ran away and was kidnapped for sex trafficking the same day, so my life before and after had always been extremely dysfunctional. I could never understood what Jesus meant, and not even one Pastor could explain to me, Why Jesus told the adulterous woman: Go and sin NO more, after she was almost murdered by all of the Religious Leaders. So I "assumed" that it must not be possible. Then the verse that snapped me out of my Victim Mentality was from ~1ST JOHN 3:9-10 No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in them, they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of God. This is how we KNOW who the children of God are and who the children of the Devil are!! In 2 Cor 10:5 The Apostle Paul told us to simply take Every thought captive and make it Obedient to Christ, so I take 10 Seconds to ask yourself: Will this glorify the Lord or Satan? I made a list of 182 other verses from the New Testament that also Warned us that if we continue in our sin, that proves who love their sin, and so they DON'T Love God... with ALL of their heart, mind, soul and strength. That is why Jesus warned us in Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter through the narrow gate. For Wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to Destruction (Hell), and many enter through it. 14.But small is the gate and Narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. So when the majority of people are doing Anything, you know it's a Deception from Satan. It may seem like the world is not falling apart, but it's falling perfectly into place. Satan already fooled Billions of people in 2020-2022 to believe the Lie despite the hundreds of red flag warning signs. COVID was literally Prophesied around 1,000 BC, in the Book of Psalms by King David. They were indoctrinated by their Pastor, their family, their schools, their doctors, their Government, famous entertainers, etc... BILLIONS more are going to be prematurely murdered, because Billions of people in The Church Won't Read/Listen & Obey their Bible, because they would rather believe their Pastor!! Most churches in our day and age, are mini Cults that say you don't have to Repent from sin. The next major "Prophecied" event to be enforced is The One World Ditital Currency: 666 The Mark of the Beast. After that, there will be NO chance to Repent; because their souls will be forever Damned to Hell; Revelation 13. "Those who do not remember the past are Condemned to repeat it."

In those days many of the most burdened congregationists would frequently attend private study sessions at his abode where they would kneel in supplication before Reverend Jones then supp avidly upon his divine rod until it would suddenly rear up and anoint their visage with his sackrament of divine grace. Perhaps this is what occurred upon that fateful day of which you speak.

@@jayinaz3221 Incorrect, by the very nature of her role as FOTUS at that time Rosalynn Carter was in fact the epoch of a broad far-left Democratic base of elected members who very strongly supported Jones over many years by making formal representations upon his behalf, providing character references and who both on the floor of the House and in public persistently interdicted and defamed the motivation of the growing number of people, mainly family members, who attempted to intervene when they became aware of the degrading situation at Jonestown including their own fellow Democrat Congressman the extraordinarily courageous late Leo Ryan. Nobody needs to throw anyone under any buses when the hat of widely-known historic fact fits so very well.

I’m so glad one of our relatives told her please don’t go to Guyana. I remember a similar situation as an adult at church. It was communion day and we had not one but two pastors because we lost our church. So the pastor who was pastoring told us to take our communion to our seats. My pastor at the time says no no no.

This is just about the greatest and most chilling made-for-tv movies ever made. It needs to be restored. I remember when Jonestown happened. It was at Thanksgiving 1978. My temporary job wouldn’t let me take off the day before Thanksgiving so I could make the 3-hour trip home from DC to South Jersey. So me and a friend made the drive Thanksgiving day. We got to the Delaware bridge just at twilight. The sun was setting and there were red and grey, dark and light gray, streaks of clouds low in the sky. Then, near the bridge, a bizarre and unexpected sight. Things that reminded me of jacks, you know, from the old game, balls and jacks, huge jacks flying up in the sky, getting lower and lower, bigger and bigger These were the first military cargo planes coming in from Jonestown. They were landing at Dover AFB. We instantly knew what they were and said, “Oh no, how depressing,” for we were depressed anyway, there was a recession and jobs were hard to find and all the news was bad news in those days. Jim Jones’ body was on one of those planes. The specter of Jonestown is with us today, every day. Jonestown foreshadowed our times more than 40 years later. Who or what else today is saying, “Come to the pavilion my children.” Who or what else is telling people to go along with dark advice that is, to say the least, not in their best interest? Who is drinking the Kool Aid now? Who is going to die, bodily or in spirit, for going along with cult deeds and thoughts? I think we all know the answer. And knowing it, we’ve got to take action to stop it.

I 100% agree with your comment kcroftfus99. People just don't want to hear the truth of the living God which comes from the (Holy Bible) this is what happens when we don't follow the ( Holy Bible) scriptures. We believe a man in flesh has the answer. When that is false only the God of Isarel has the answers to life problems. If you steadfast in the word of God which is the ( Holy Bible) you won't fall for religious cults like Jim Jones cults and jehovah's witness.

I was 11 during Jim Jones, so I don't remember it, but I lived in Dallas when David Koresh killed 76 people on April 19, 1993. In Matthew 24 when The 12 Apostle ask Jesus about the Signs of the Last Days before His return, the very first thing Jesus said was: Do Not be Deceived. Now in 2023 The Evil World powers have an even more Demonic plan to kill every single person on the planet. The Book of Revelation is unfolding right before our eyes, and yet people don't even see it!! So people will be willingly take The Mark of The Beast in their right hand or their forehead simply so that they can buy & sell to live; not knowing that they are condemning their soul to Hell forever. Since 2015 to now, 1,000s of Biblical prophecies have been happening faster and faster every day like birth pangs in a pregnant women. John 14:6 Jesus is The Way, The Truth, The Life and nobody comes to the Father except through Him. ~My story: 2 of my sisters were murdered and then 3 of my siblings committed suicide. So after I had been in Church for over 50 years, I almost committed suicide just 6 years ago (this week exactly) in the summer of 2017. I found out that it Only takes 1 Day to Listen to the New Testament Bible. The Truth completely healed My Mind, Body, Soul and Spirit on August 10, 2017. For the last 6 years now I have Never struggled with: Anger, Alcohol, Bag language, Bitterness, Codependency, Complaining, Depression, Doubts, Dressing Sensually, Drugs, Fear, Greed, Guilt, Insecurities, Jealousy, Loneliness, Masturbation/Pornography, Rejection, Self-harm, Sexual Thoughts, Shame, Suicidal Thoughts/Attempts, Stress, Temptations, Unforgiveness, Worry, Etc... I've been strongly encouraging people to Simply "Push Play" and let The ONLY Truth set them free too, but so far Not even 1 person has made time to Listen to The Bible. ~ Matt - John = 10 Hours ~ Acts - Gal = 6 Hours ~ Eph - Rev = 5 Hours ~As a teenager I ran away and was kidnapped for sex trafficking the same day, so my life before and after had always been extremely dysfunctional. I could never understood what Jesus meant, and not even one Pastor could explain to me, Why Jesus told the adulterous woman: Go and sin NO more, after she was almost murdered by all of the Religious Leaders. So I "assumed" that it must not be possible. Then the verse that snapped me out of my Victim Mentality was from ~1ST JOHN 3:9-10 No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God's seed remains in them, they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of God. This is how we KNOW who the children of God are and who the children of the Devil are!! In 2 Cor 10:5 The Apostle Paul told us to simply take Every thought captive and make it Obedient to Christ, so I take 10 Seconds to ask yourself: Will this glorify the Lord or Satan? I made a list of 182 other verses from the New Testament that also Warned us that if we continue in our sin, that proves who love their sin, and so they DON'T Love God... with ALL of their heart, mind, soul and strength. That is why Jesus warned us in Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter through the narrow gate. For Wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to Destruction (Hell), and many enter through it. 14.But small is the gate and Narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. So when the majority of people are doing Anything, you know it's a Deception from Satan. It may seem like the world is not falling apart, but it's falling perfectly into place. Satan already fooled Billions of people in 2020-2022 to believe the Lie despite the hundreds of red flag warning signs. COVID was literally Prophesied around 1,000 BC, in the Book of Psalms by King David. They were indoctrinated by their Pastor, their family, their schools, their doctors, their Government, famous entertainers, etc... BILLIONS more are going to be prematurely murdered, because Billions of people in The Church Won't Read/Listen & Obey their Bible, because they would rather believe their Pastor!! Most churches in our day and age, are mini Cults that say you don't have to Repent from sin. The next major "Prophecied" event to be enforced is The One World Ditital Currency: 666 The Mark of the Beast. After that, there will be NO chance to Repent; because their souls will be forever Damned to Hell; Revelation 13. "Those who do not remember the past are Condemned to repeat it."

Part of my family perished over there. I will never forget the day we found out. My beloved mother's favorite brother perished, my mother was never the same. She felt guilty, because her brother asked her, if he should marry the woman who sent them to their graves. But my mother was just a kid when he asked her that. My favorite Aunt she said she was going to sell her house and go over there. Her oldest daughter put her foot down, told her she was Not going to sell anything, and was Not going anywhere. Thank God she listened. She felt guilty the remaining of her life as well. She would get sick every year around the time they perished. I'm sure there was some survival guilt as well. My family that perished over there was going around trying o get the rest of us to join in the maddness. Excuse me, I should say my uncle's wife was trying to do this. Calling that devil father, listen to his lies, sell our homes and give him the money. Stand on corners beg for money to give to this devil. And to go with them whe he told them California was going to fall in the ocean. The government was coming for them and they must flee to South America. Btw South America is surrounded by water. All the unclean/sexual immoral stuff this devil did. My ucle wife was the reason they perished over there, she did some business that was Not right. I always felt sorry for my under age cousins who had no choice. My grown cousin took his girlfriend and her four children. My cousin who was 18, got off the bus before it left, with another girl. They told them they had to go to the bathroom and kept walking. That is the only reason why they are alive today. Even though my grown cousin, (her brother) over there wrote letters to her, telling her to come, that their mother was sick. She went around asking some of our Aunts should she go. And one told her if you go you won't come back. My uncle wife kept trying to get one of my aunt's to go to that demonic church. She finally did. That devil was coming down the aisle and my uncle wife said "here comes the father, touch the hem of his garment". My Aunt said I don't want to touch that N*****. They worshiped this devil. My uncle wife thought this devil was really God. The bible says call No man Father. Jim told her three times he healed her eye sight, so now she can drive. She went out there and caused a massive pile up. You would of thought something would of registered after the first time he told her she was healed, but nope. My uncle, had his reasons for going over there. That picture of all them lying on their stomachs dead. I still till this day be looking at it to see if I can see my uncle and my two little cousins. And that recording of that woman talking to Jim that serpent, right before they died. She was saying she understood why they had to drink the Kool aid, but she did not think the children had to. I be wondering was that my uncle's wife talking. It reminds me of her. There are many like Jim Jones, many before and after him. This has made me very cautious about preachers/churches my ears/eyes stay wide open and I listen/look to hear/see if they have Jim Jones in them, that spirit, if they do my feet get to running, running fast !!!!!! If it is Not in the bible, I CANNOT receive it. Thank You Holy Spirit for being an Awesome Teacher and revealing much !!! Be careful out there. Watch and pray. There are many woles in sheep clothing. Many hypocrites in Pharisee clothing. Little children keep yourselves from idols. Amen. 1 John 5:21 🙏🙏🙏

I saw this movie in my teens and also on People Magazine investigates on Cults they did one on Jim Jones. Here were some of the best words by Laura Johnston Kohl who was Jim Jones staff member when she said "That's not suicide that's murder he murdered everybody." Well spoken words Kohl.

No disrespect for this lady at all because she is deceased, but when she got out of this cult, she jumped back into another one. You would think she would've learned from what happened with Jim Jones. but no, she walked into another one because if I recall correctly, "That's where I fit in, being told what to do, when to do it." (Not a direct quote, but something similar to this was said during an interview) She got out of that cult as well and almost went into another one. Yes she spoke true words it was a murder of innocent people, but still, she walked right back into another one and even though she's gone now and may she rest in peace. I lost respect for her because she didn't learn her lesson. I'm sorry and maybe it's just me, but if you get out of something this trammitic and lived to talk about it, you don't go right back in and expect people to respect you. Sorry for my rant. I hope I didn't offend you.

Sadly, most of humanity suffers from lack of critical thinking & has a form of mass psychosis. Look at how many lined up for an experimental gmo jab for a virus that has NEVER been isolated. It was sooo easy to convince people of sooo many lies & people feel self-righteous about following orders & even became nasty to anyone who questioned anything.

I wish ppl would've saw past the time jones told them to drink wine then said they're poisoned. Then saying they weren't. I'd be pissed. I wish they had been like 'ok...this makes me uneasy i gotta get away from here' aswell as him asking would they be willing to die. But of course they COULDN'T leave. Then ppl that didn't wanna die got injected. Just sad. May he rot.

No he didn't, he was a wrong un' right from the get go. In his childhood other children were forbidden from having anything whatsoever to do with him due to his parents refusal to do anything about his persistently deranged, perverted and downright dangerous behaviour. He used to kill pets so he could conduct funeral services for them, a very sick person right from the beginning who was only attracted to religion because it allowed him to assume a position of control over the most vulnerable. There was nothing at all 'pure' and 'innocent' about that person.

Am 30 years old and it's my first time hearing about this! Thanks alot. In Uganda where am from, someone called Kibwetere who was a cult leader of some christian-like group in South Western Uganda convinced his followers to sell all their property and prepare for the end of the world and ascension to heaven at the beginning of the new millenium/21st century. He later called everyone into the church, locked themselves in and they set the building ablaze burning themselves to death. Whether he was in the building or out when it burned down is not really known. But prior to this climax of the church fire, many followers were already being killed and dumped into a ditch at one of the locations of the church's former premises. It is said that the massacre could have been influenced by the fact that the world did not end at the 1999/2000 new year transition as had been expected, but it is also said that Kibwetere may have feared that with the end of the world and ascension to heaven not materialising, he could have feared that he would have to be answerable and compensate the followers who had sold off, destroyed or given away their property and assets. This second reason could perhaps have given Kibwetere motive to kill his followers but himself flee. However, if it was the first reason, and if all these people really believed that the world was to end, then there's a chance that Kibwetere might have also died with them in the furnace while adhering to his and their beliefs of the actual impending ennd of the world. You can get the short documentary on this on RU-vid just search for such keywords as Kibwetere, cults in Uganda, or something like that

When I moved to SF just three months after this happened, one of the first places I visited was Jones' by-then abandoned People's Temple out on Geary Blvd. A repurposed 1920's Synagogue, it faced the street with a big arched doorway flanked by large stained glass windows; and above hung a cheap florescent-lit plastic sign reading PEOPLE'S TEMPLE in big red letters... that somebody had already shattered by heaving a brick through it. As SF Housing Commissioner, Jones himself was tightly connected to City Hall and in particular his best buddies Dianne Feinstein and Harvey Milk. The irony was that Milk and Mayor George Moscone were both gunned down on the second floor of City Hall just nine days after Jones blew his own brains out in Guyana. So that old town was fairly reeling when I arrived and everywhere you went people still whispered about the ugly details of both events, many of which went unreported by the press.. And I totally agree that Powers Boothe is spooky-good in his portrayal... to the point of channeling him! But what this miniseries doesn't make fully clear is how Jones used his total influence to sexually abuse members of his congregation including women, men, minor girls and boys alike. Another sad thing that went unnoticed in the press at the time was the shabby reception some of those bodies received once they came home to Oakland, since more than a few families were so ashamed at what happened to their loved ones they barely held any funeral at all. And even as recently as several years ago, when an Oakland cemetery built a new memorial the victims were again briefly in the news as a few names were still omitted at the request of the family. So: this excellent film's title says it all: it WAS a tragedy in more ways than one! TRIVIA: Guyana even has a lasting place in pop culture with the phrase "don't drink the Kool-Aid!"... even though in reality it was the cheaper brand of Grape Flavor-Aid. BTW: Am I the only one who noticed they misspelled "November" in the opening titles? But, I'm hoping that was just a subtle jab at Jim Jones and not an accident!

I was only a year old when the Guyana Tragedy occurred. I heard that it was really big news when it happened. I remember in high school, I came across this movie on a late Saturday night either on TNT or TBS. I watched it, and it made me feel so uneasy. How one man had that much power over almost a thousand people and also cost most of them their lives. Watching it, I felt like when Jones started preaching, he had the best of intentions. But greed and egotism consumed him. And then he loved the power he had over his followers. He went from serving God to then believing he was God. Then he thought himself to be bigger than God. It shows what can happen when Satan can gain control over somebody like Jim Jones and use that person for pure evil. A part of me wishes I never saw this movie. However, it did a great job with the chronicles of his early life, his rise to power and fame, and his eventual downfall. And the actors did a great job in the movie. Especially the late Powers Boothe. He made you believe that HE WAS Jim Jones.

I saw this many years ago. Now rewatching. Whenever I’ve thought of Jim Jones, i’ve always thought of this performance by Powers Boothe. Overall, an amazing cast, memorable production.

Too bad we will never be able to see a restored print of this amazing movie. Booth won the 1980 Emmy for best actor and we'll never see footage of that either due to the strike that was happening then. What a cast and what a performance.

Powers Boothe as Jim Jones was excellent another underrated actor. Be at peace Powers Boothe
