FRIEND OF MANKIND - by Karl-Rainer Blumenthal

UPDATED: 09/14/2009 to provide a better link to the video parts:

L. Ron Hubbard always wanted to be known as a 'friend of mankind' but his legacy, as documented in this film by Purinton Pictures, is quite different.

"Friend of Mankind (2006) is a non-fiction documentary film about writer L. Ron Hubbard, his devoted celebrity followers and those who have died through his prescribed methods for the Church of Scientology. It is comprised primarily of footage from film and television interviews."
Blumenthal's 2006 documentary takes a critical look at the"accomplishments, controversies and followers of L. Ron Hubbard, founder of the Church of Scientology, comprised of American, English and German television broadcasts from the last 37 years"
