* The ''[[Sliders]]'' episode "Prophets and Loss" has a fundamentalist church which "sends its believers to paradise" with what the protagonists think is Sliding technology {{spoiler|but is actually a human incinerator}}.
* ''[[Law and& Order]]'': ''[[Special Victims Unit]]'' the SVU team take on a cult leader, who brainwashes women into his cult by making them his wives so he can get access to their bank accounts.
** If it's the same case I'm thinking of, said cult leader also brainwashed married women ''and'' their husbands into becoming part of the cult. Then he'd secretly kill off the husbands and convince the wives that the guys had abandoned them, thus mindcontrollingmind-controlling the women even more.
* ''[[Stargate SG-1]]'' dealt with destroying many of these, from the parasitic Goa'uld, to the demigodlike Ori, and even a few fringe cults, like the time an SG team member went crazy/rogue and declared himself a god.
