5.0 out of 5 stars Paradise Lost, July 4, 2004

By 

Sapphire3508 "Sapphire3508" (Richardson, Texas United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Paradise Lost:the Child Murders [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I can say more than "WOW END" as the previous reviewer left. I can say I've been a WM3 supporter for 5 1/2 years now, and this is NOT the end. There are so many supporters now, and this unjustice for Damien Echols,Jason Baldwin and Jessie Misskelley IS not going to go away"~

Every day that passes more people see these Docmentaries, and see just how corrupt our Justice System really is~ In the end there will be no hiding out for this WMPD~ They will indeed get their own due.

Anyone who does see this film and just walks away with out feeling violated by the "Law" should be ashamed of themselves

For further assistance or more information go to www.wm3.org ~ WE are here working for justice for these 3 and will will not stop until we see justice for Damien, Jessie and Jason. Not until the State of Arkansas opens up their cell doors and allows these three young men (now) walk out free. Too much time has already passed, too much damage done to Jessie, Jason and Damien, to let another day just pass with out looking further into this Case/Cause is in it's self a huge injustice.

For further information and reading Mara Leveritt has written her own book regarding this Case~ It's called the Devils Knot~ I stongly urge any doubters to read her book, watch Revelations Paradise Lost the sequel to this film then decide~

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, provocative examination of our judicial system., December 28, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Paradise Lost:the Child Murders [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Absolutely stunning film which stayed with me for weeks. Every five minutes I found myself convinced alternately of the guilt and innocence of the accused. The filmmakers definitely have their beliefs but don't shove them down the viewer's throat. The consequent developments in the story are even more fascinating -- check out their web site AFTER you watch the film. END

5.0 out of 5 stars The WM3 Are Innocent, December 22, 2003

By 

"quoththepenguin" (Fort Smith, AR United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Paradise Lost:the Child Murders [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I had never heard of the west memphis 3 until I watched this movie. I also watched the sequel to this movie and I still to this day cannot believe that those 3 boys are still in prison for something they didn't do. I have done extensive research on this subject since watching the movies and have even bought books about the boys. I also met one of the authors who wrote the Devil's Knot (I highly recommend this book if you are in doubt whether they are guilty or innocent) I have given speeches on the this topic and have got several other people trying to help these guys get out of prison. The Governor of Arkansas, Mike Huckabee is blinded and wants these boys to remain in Prison until they die, while the person who is guilty is able to walk the streets day after day. What kind of justice is this? Also check out their website at www.wm3.org
