The Cult of the Family— Episode 1

About the Melbourne-based cult The Family, which was led by the charming and dangerous Anne Hamilton-Byrne: a yoga teacher who claimed to be Jesus Christ reincarnated. Instead of serving wine and bread, Hamilton-Byrne fed LSD to her disciples - adopted children raised as her own throughout the 60s and 70s. She dressed them in identical clothes and haircuts; they resembled the pipsqueaks from "Village of the Damned".
