If you think Tiger King is wild, if you think that it is impossible to find a weirder collection of characters than those depicted in Tiger King, wait until you see Evil Genius. This is not just a documentary about a bunch of con men and freaks like Tiger King, Evil Genius is about really machiavellian individuals.

And while Tiger King has some moments when it becomes some sort of reality-show with tigers (and in fact, at some point, there was a reality-show being filmed), Evil Genius is going to keep you tied to the chair from the very beginning until the last episode. How many stories begin with an episode (the one described in the poster above) that could be part of the Saw saga?
