After Don't F*ck with Cats and The Tinder Swindler, Cyber Hell is yet another Netflix documentary that delves into serious cybercrimes. The victim list of this cyber-sexual abuse scandal is pretty huge, and the fact that young women and children are majorly involved makes it difficult for the creators of this piece to paint the complete picture. It is told primarily from the perspective of the media and some ethical hackers who spent months investigating the crimes and tracking down the key perpetrators - Baksa and GodGod.
It is worth mentioning that the documentary is 60% sickening with all its immersive details (of the crime) and 40% thrilling with its investigative actions. The documentary never veers off course, focusing on the insights offered by the relevant people being interviewed (including a journalist who was also subjected to cyber harassment). The stylistic choices employed in the piece are acceptable, given it talks about the digital world and its eerie side. Texts are typed out as they are, apps are explored on the go, and location maps are shared for a greater geographical understanding. Cyber Hell is best watched without reading much about the case, as it offers the feeling of proceedings unfolding in real-time.
