Really revealing film, very memorable. Definitely jump started a lot of conversation afterwards.

Many similarities to the west really is what became apparent, the lies, the religious doctrines, the violent culture, the history of conflict, the inequalities, the lies, the sexism, the far right. Just a different setting with different languages over different time frames

The United States has been at war with terror for more than a generation. No matter where the violent strikes in the world there are some similarities that identify these terrorist cells. In this movie you really get a sense of the behind the scene perspective of these terrorist. It's fascinating to watch the candor in the moments captured on the videotapes of these young man smiling laughing and enjoying fellowship. All the while planing and executing some unimaginable violent acts. A reality of the modern world, terrorism is a complex phenomenon. This movie takes you to the frontlines of terror.

I went to Saudi Arabia in 1996 as an eight years old and lived there for fourteen years. Never realized that I have lived through such a troubled time in the Kingdom's history. The documentary showed Al Qaeda's attack on a compound in Khobar and it all came back to me as I was in the city at that point and I did hear about it the same evening. Sadly we lost one of our neighbour who was in THAT area and was shot dead! Hats off to the Saudi Special Forces who eradicated these menaces who are hell bent on using religion as a veil to carry out their evil deeds. The documentary was an edge of the seat thriller and as a Muslim, it was even more disgusting to see how the actions of few are tarnishing the image of the Islam.

A must watch!

Disappointing documentary for myself,personally speaking. Footage of tapes,video were at times very grainy and awkward in viewing,wasn't very informative viewing... Lots of useless pyrotechnic explosions,lots of terrorists trying to be heroes,dialogues of lots of blah,blah,blah's I kinda lost interest 15minutes in... The narrator was useless. The documentary was below average. 4 out of 10 for me

Fascinating insight into the real nature of youth and terrorism. Spectacular achievement to have got hold of such raw footage. Recommend to all. Harrowing and compelling

This film tells the story of Al Qaeda members operating in their home country and the Saudi government's efforts to defeat them. No talking heads, just extraordinary, compelling footage, both seized from Al Qaeda and shot by the Saudi security forces.

This is not an easygoing film, as you might imagine. Taken from archival footage from Al Qaeda we get a deep look into terrorist organisation operations in the early to mid 90s. Fascinating stuff.

Rarely do I end watching a film/ documentary unable to move from my seat - processing slowly what I have just seen. This is a brilliant and powerful piece of filmmaking - and left me mulling over so many issues that it stayed with me for days. Loved this for a whole range of complex and compelling reasons. A must see.

These clowns have no friends, then they finally meet people they share the same interests with and then they kill themselves. Morons.

An amazing look into the Jihadists that usually have a nameless and faceless presence. They seemed more like misguided youths similar to Antifa or the far left in America. However their heavy doses of fundamental Islam makes them even more willing to wreak havoc and cruelty for what they believe is a greater good. Must watch.

Absolutely gripping documentary and it shows you how crazy the people are. Probably one of the best documentaries I have seen in a very long time.

A shocking insight into the heart of Al-Qaeda in Saudi Arabia.

Path of Blood is an unconventional documentary. Its use of personal footage filmed by strikingly young followers of radical Islam seems to make it all the more impactful. Narration is completely unbiased and neutral, allowing the viewer to form their own opinion as things pan out, and it's not afraid to show you the raw parts, or clips that are gory - this is the unfiltered reality of the situation. More people ought to see this film; it both humanises and exposes. Real food for thought.

A unique and special way of demonstrating Al Qaeda by exploring real footage of a specific gang. What an incredible intake, thank you!

I was looking really looking forward to watching this documentary but ended up so disappointed! I have watched a great deal of documentary programs over the years and, a number of them have been about the arrogant nature of religious factions; including the cruel and unnecessary Al Qaeda, ISIS and Taliban etc. It seriously lacked in detailed and informative info/directive from the narrator; 50% of the reason why it came across in such a droll and utterly boring style. As such it made me think that this is not the style of documentary makers/narrators from the West therefore, something else had to be going on. The Saudi Royal family (the government of their country) was the only conclusion I could theoretically come up with. I say this because I had a continuous feeling all the way through that this was a feature length advert for Saudi self glorification. I have seen it happen so many other times when the subject involves Saudi Arabia. I'm not going to say any more except how can you send, so called, special forces personnel (who always appeared in this to be numbering about 50 or more) that end up leaving peoples homes, businesses etc utterly blown to pieces...and the area looking like a bombed out Stalingrad. Special Forces are small stealth groups who act in well planned missions whereas the views here looked totally chaotic and gave the terrorists too much information. A good narration would have made this BORING doc so much more gripping and entertaining!
