“Dancing for the Devil: The 7M TikTok Cult” There can’t be anything sinister behind all those viral dances you see while scrolling social media juggernaut TikTok, right? Well, think again. “Dancing for the Devil: The 7M TikTok Cult,” a three-episode docuseries from director Derek Doneen (“The Price of Free,” 2018), takes a deep-dive into one social media management group’s unsavory conduct when it premieres Wednesday, May 29, on Netflix. The docuseries covers the conduct 7M Films, first through the story of Miranda Wilking. Miranda has always been passionate about dance. So much, in fact, that she used that passion to find viral success on TikTok with her sister Melanie. Sometime in 2019, Miranda fell in with the Los Angeles-based management company, which is affiliated with the Shekinah Church where 7M owner Robert Shinn serves as a pastor. As a result, Miranda began spending more time with members of 7M, eventually cutting off contact with her family entirely. In addition to Miranda’s story, the series includes “the testimonies of dancers and others who fled 7M Films and are now working to take it down from outside” (per Netflix).
