Secret Societies (DVD)

This is a DVD from Philip Gardiner, who is well-known in the "conspiracy" world for his studies of ancient/secret societies and the various groups and forms they've taken, such as the Illuminati and the Knights Templar.

This movie is kind of the overview or the holistic look at all of these societies he's delved into and is basically the History Channel documentary Gardiner did a couple of years ago.

Sadly, it's barely an overview and is even shallow for just being that. Very little proof, information, or even naming of names is proffered here. Just a slow, historical view of most of the already-well-known groups like the Freemasons and Knights Templar. Nothing new or interesting here unless you don't know much about the secret societies that have existed or currently exist.

This is probably a good start for the novice or those brand new to the genre of "Illuminati" or "conspiracy" thinking. Otherwise, skip it. There's a reason this sells through Reader's Digest and Publisher's Clearinghouse...
