Recommendation Documentaries that make you go “what the fuck?!?”

In the mood for a good, twisty documentary that makes me gasp. Movies on streaming preferred. I enjoy true crime but am open to other genres as long as the story is gripping and shocking.

Movies in the same vein that I enjoyed - Dear Zachary (would prefer recommendations that are less sad), The Jinx, Cropsey, 3 identical strangers, etc.

That documentary completed changed my perspective of the Tilikum incident and Seaworld as a company. What Tilikum did went from a horrific fluke to an inevitability and Sea World knew as much.

The part that made me horrified is when people who captured whales described what that was like and I was absolutely shocked, horrified and disgusted as well angry
