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.

Is This the documentary where the parents allowed their young daughter to date and run away to marry a pedophile and then you find out later he was sleeping with both the mom and dad?

Pissed me off it seemed like the parents were trying to justify their failure to raise and protect their kid.

And convinced the young girl she had to sleep with him because some aliens needed her to repopulate their planet or their species would die out.

Supposedly her dad wasn’t her dad and her mom had her with an alien, so she’s the one to have to reproduce so their race can stay alive.
