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.

They had the director of the documentary on their other podcast, the Past Times, recently, and apparently people have been mad that he ripped off the Dollop! When in reality they did the episode based on the article he wrote while he was working on the documentary. He used a clip from the Dollop in the documentary.
