Docuseries about alleged cults are often released after the fact. But the group depicted in Netflix’s latest deep dive is very much still an active threat.
Dancing for the Devil: The 7M TikTok Cult—a three-part documentary premiering on Netflix today—opens with a story that captured the imagination of millions on TikTok. For years, Miranda Wilking and her sister, Melanie, had posted clips in which they performed viral dances, amassing between 2 and 3 million followers. But in early 2021, Miranda suddenly disappeared from the feed.
” Around 2018, James “BDash” Derrick—a krump dancer of growing renown—began producing social media content with a videographer named Isaiah Shinn, who happens to be Robert’s son. About a year later, Derrick began recommending Isaiah to other dancers in his community. Before long, the dancers were attending services at Shekinah. As one explains in the series, Robert overheard them expressing frustration with their managers.
